  1. danz is right, poorly placed, lack of vertical, painfully slow. Get me some fast quads in the right places.
  2. docomo for me. imode sucks eggs.
  3. Thats a real book to have. When was the last one published anyone? Mine is from about 4 years ago, I wonder if there are any newer versions.
  4. Quote: Seaman is as popular as Owen or Beckham in England. Like Beckham, many men copy his hairstyle A frightening thought.
  5. It'd be good if they just went about their business then shut up. It will be fall then
  6. Nice area, and in a great location with really cool places to the west, north and east. Then you have Tokyo down south!
  7. Looks great. Don't you just love lookin at snow capped mountains with fresh powder
  8. I'm just super-jealous of anyone who lives at the bottom of decent slopes.
  9. The Motley Crue one is good for a laugh. My sister, a big fan, loves the Michael J Fox one. Biographies can often make for a good read.
  10. 2 great games. Brazil are looking sharp.
  11. Hey, hey Mr Ocean? Sorry cas, not too big on Japanese publications. Sure someone can help though.
  12. I fancy taking a look at China and just wish I had the time/funds.
  13. I go through periods of feeling I am making progress, than then just the opposite. I'm in one of those opposite times right now
  14. As Akibun says, a great place for both snowboarders and skiers. [This message has been edited by blinkin'ek (edited 09 June 2002).]
  15. Is the reading on the toilet thing a British "pastime"? WHY do you want to do that?
  16. Luckily most people in Japan are not too far from some resorts, so the travel distance problem is less than maybe other countries. Depends on where you live of course. Travel costs a lot though, thats the big problem here.
  17. Hi sophoMORE By all accounts much less crowded than it was 10 years ago. In fact, sometimes it's like having your very own reserved ski field on a weekday! As for new resorts, the newest ones I know of are ARAI and NASPA in Niigata, apart from that there has been little in the way of new places - new lifts maybe but not resorts. You were here just when skiing was at it's peak I think.
  18. Just what are you saying 7-11 - that resorts blatently lie about the number of courses they have? Or just that there is no standard in defining what a "course" is?
  19. Blinkin'ek - the rain doesn't seem to be coming either. Whatz going on?
