The most I've ever seen I think is in Yuzawa this last February that week when it snowed constantly for about a week. That was mad.

Couldn't the loudspeaker just say "boo" to frighten it away.

Well Ocean11 while I generally agree with you, you are missing the point.
Anyway thanks for the feedback - anyone else?

OK so I've been asked (invited?) to send a denpyo to a guy who is getting married. Basically he works for another company and he has been in charge of the work on their side. Nothing major just a small thing and hardly something that has made us "close". I hardly know the guy and if anything I think he is unqualified and not much use, causing more problems than anything.
So the company called me and invited me to send a denpyo for his wedding. And I'm wondering whether to send or not - and whether it would be advised to send even if I don't really want to..... you know, for the sake of the relationship and all that.
It doesn't cost much, but it just seems so false to do it - apart from the fact I wouldn't really know what to say.... though I'm sure a Japanese colleague would be able to help with the keigo bull...
Interested to know what others might do.

Saw the extended version (soon to be released over here on dvd) of Gladiator last night - there's about 17 mins of extra stuff in there and unlike some of these exercises, they add to the depth of the characters. I'm not usually a fan of that kind of flick but it's a great movie.

I think the mina bit is coming from Minakami. Can't quite remember the significance of the 2.

The more he posts his predictions, the more we can see they simply are not correct. I'd like to know more about his methods.
Whens the next one rahul?

That seems very positive compared to the slating it got when it was first on. Wouldn't mind checking it out.

Hold on a sec. Just watching the news and that Livedoor bloke was on there looking like he was campaigning... whos he campaigning for??

No Flower Fruit, those kanji are, right?

I took that as meaning more like "how do they split the revenues", gamera. May be wrong..

JellyBelly - are you a lady or a guy?

I know there's ton of people who are not English teachers here, but wondering how many of the people started out teaching English, you know using that as a way in.
And so, the poll....

Did anyone see it on Wowow, kinda interested in how it translated. Presumably, very badly.

The years fly by, into double figures now.

A friend went back to the UK last week and said security was noticeably longer than usual but nothing too bad.

I hardly ever have tea so I wouldn't know.

It's not doing too badly either
Sci-fi thriller War of the Worlds, starring Tom Cruise, was the highest earning global film last weekend, with takings exceeding $200m (£114m).
Steven Spielberg's blockbuster took $113.3m (£64.4m) in North America and $102.5m (£58.3m) elsewhere between Wednesday and Sunday.
The latter figure includes $15.7m (£8.9m) in the UK, $15.1m (£8.6m) in Japan and $7.8m (£4.4m) in Spain.

Yes Dumb and Dumber - cracks me up every time that one.

The teabag poll.
So non teabag tea really does taste better?

I wonder what the numbers would be for different countries. Interesting, that does seem high

Are those 2 front one "gaijin dolls"? That top one looks like he's got one of those lovely tight perm things going on as well.
