SKI

It will sure be interesting to see when the next snow arrives there if this was a sign of early season or just a freak snowfall.

Quote: Shock horror, ultra conservative SKI, conformist and some might say bland, reacted in the expected manner when tattoo was mentioned. If ever there was a 'just ignore him' moment, that was it. Haha. Spoken just like a person with a tattoo. I find the tattoo gang quite amusing more than anything actually. Some common "qualities" I have noticed (in my extensive research of course): - overly sensitive; - try to convince themselves that they do it for themselves and don't give a damn what people think. Yeah, right.

Quote: rather then running your mouth (keyboard) off and aclling us that do have them silly little childish names. Silly little childish names? I believe I said "foolish", which doesn't seem childish to me. Quote: Funny how you say Tatts say so much about the person when your bigoted remarks and generalisations speaks volumes to me. I have absolutely no problem with that.

Think what you want, but allow me to have my views. I think people putting permanant marks on your body like that is foolish and says a lot about the marked person. You are of course free to be as foolish as you wish. I and others will just laugh.

Quote: Tattoos are bad and evil things. If you have a tattoo you're a evil person... Where did you get that from? Hmmmm... Perhaps you meant.. "If you have a tattoo you're a fool..." ..which would of course be correct.

Yes, yes, yes, obviously you are right and I am wrong. It goes without saying. I am sure the vast majority of the population approves of tattoes. That's why the vast majority of the population have them and why they are fully accepted.

Why the insults? Can you take that down please, it is not needed. The majority I am talking about is the majority of people who do not like tattoos.

It's on Monday the 15th.

Just in case people miss it, theres lots of Yuzawa / Naeba pics up http://www.snowjapanforums.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php/topic/1/7114.html

I'm surprised at how much is piled up there! Thanks for the pics.

Perhaps they don't want people with tattoos to enter because they feel the majority of their customers do not like it. Seems reasonable to me. Quote: I am planing on getting my first one Why?

No I don't think so. Of course it's certainly late and far from optimal, but a large number of people have not arranged their winter holidays yet. Anyway my friends were talking about the skijo, not necessarily the hotels.

If you send more than 1 complaning letter to Amazon they often give you some vouchers/money back. Once I had a prolonged complaint (similar to above). I ended up getting the full price of the product back ($32) plus $15 extra.

Keep J TV turned off and you can avoid him. I know what you mean he seems to be on everything morning lunchtime and evening - and is extremely annoying.

Quote: Clearly there were local people quite literally left out in the cold once the IOC circus packed up and left town From what I gather, lots of people felt like that before and during the circus was in town.

Superb new content SJ. Well done. Looking forward to using it all.

Time for me to win this year I think!

I have actually heard from a few (trusted) people that there is a high chance that Arai will be opening this season and the news of who the mystery operators will come out in the next 2 weeks. It will be interesting to see what happens there.

Er, I think I'll wait for real snow. Good that it's getting cold enough to do that though.

It was particularly poor. They spent half the time having a "quiz" where they guessed how much Mika Salos wedding reception cost.

Politicians talk such bollocks for the most part don't they. List some worthy and non bullshit politicians here:

Didn't she do well.

There are other places based in Niseko that will look after things for you - contact some of these http://www.snowjapan.com/e/hotel/index-hokkaido.html

I'd agree with that - just concentrate on getting fit and you'll have a blast.

I just love it when the heat starts to fade away, nice comfortable weather arrives and we can finally see winter approaching
