[Which famous people do you look like?]

I have been told a certain Usama bin Laden, without the facial hair

 

[Good subjects at school]

Anything mathematical, scientific.

[Poll: Desktop or notebook?]

1 of each at home, desktop at work.

[Earthquake in Tokyo?]

Tell us more - what was it like?

[Earthquake in Tokyo?]

Anyone in the Kobe area at the time of the earthquake?

[Tokyo Disneyland]

Universal is quite good.

[Rating your own intelligence]

Anyone here take the Mensa test?

[Beer - bottles or draught?]

Thats terrible, I wouldn't go.

[Sexiest japanese girls name!]

I heard that the -ko names are decreasing recently and not so many young girls with them now.

 

I personally really like Aya.

[Long GW holiday?]

It's all over now. What was the fuss about? I hope next years is a better holiday.

[The most inaka gaijin]

Not me but I have a friend in Gifu who is almost in the middle of nowhere - village of 500, nearest decent shop many many miles away.

[How much did you spend then?]

Not very much really. I spend most of the money on travel.

[Flets ADSL speed]

The faster the better, if you ask me.

 

I got 1498 kbps! Do I win?!

Good one badmigrain. I don't get to use it so much.

 

So desu ne is the ultimate in useful nihongo.

Holiday almost over now.

[Food on the slopes]

I'm still looking for a good curry on the hills.

[To chat or not to chat?]

I like to chat with people whenever I can. I don't have that many chance to speak English usually, so I am glad for the chance.

[Working at a Japanese company]

I work at a Japanese company and have mostly good experiences. Here people work together well (even if they do not particularly like someone else personally), there are few arguments and things are fairly efficient - no less so than the company I worked for in the US before Japan. There are also no endless meaningless meetings here and no-one sleeping in the toilets!

 

I find it quite refreshing after my experiences in the US to be honest.

[Post]

Interesting.

 

And yes Thunderbird 2 is the big fat green one that has different inner storage that they can change depending on the mission.

[Koushinnryou on my apartments rent]

I have to pay a months rent extra koushinryo after 2 years

[Outrageous!]

One of my bosses seems to have no second thoughts about taking an over 5000 yen taxi home almost every night. He could use a train for a tenth of that (admittedly taking a fair bit more time).

[Did you finish it yet?]

Yes!

 

 

Now for the heat and home too.

[Japan dwellers - how often do you go back your home country?]

Once a year is what is hoped for.

[Guns]

Or perhaps friends and relatives are the Bogey man.
