  1. What does this translate as? Basically "pissed off with the summer weather"? or feel ill because of it?
  2. I enjoyed Superman Returns, thought it was good fun and it took me back a few years. Recently I saw The Hudsucker Proxy which was very entertaining too.
  3. I do not love really really poor movies. Miami Vice for example. Just garbage.
  4. What are you guys donoring or is it everything?
  5. Crepes are all nothing in my experience. I like a good thick pancake/hotcake though.
  6. I'm sure they do massage numbers. After all, no-one is going to be able to check them. A rise for Fukushima wonder where they're all going.
  7. Wonder where the first flake of snow in autumn falls in Japan? Mt Fuji?
  8. Aso does sound like that I see "dracula" Hashimoto has passed away today. Wasn't he still working?
  9. Not keen on the idea of big 'cocks' being flown over Japan, got to say. Not too difficult to imagine NK suddenly becoming a very serious situation.
  10. Blokes, alas Quote: "Generally speaking, in Japan, the ability of men and women to communicate smoothly with each other is somewhat low," What's with that then? By age 40, one male in 10 still a virgin "You've got to be joking, right?" This is how evening tabloid Nikkan Gendai (May 31) reacts to the results of a study by the Japan Family Planning Association titled "Male and Female Life and Awareness."

  11. That area of SK is very much a "skiers" area more than boarding - well, thats the impression I got when I was there.
  12. In the end, did Hakuba village (not just the ken as a whole) benefit from having the Olympics or was it just more cost than worth? A Japanese friend was talking about that last night and he said that basically it was one big minus. I wasn't able to respond much but am interested in the topic and will be meeting him again next week so want to think about it. What were the + and - points?
  13. Being to the south of the main places I'd like to try some more up north as well. And Hokkaido of course.
  14. How come someone doesn't just stand up and say "that just does not make sense!"??
  15. I just saw the ad on National Geographic here in Japan. Japanese subtitles and text, the talking was in English. Fanbloodytastic.
  16. Well, I "get" Gervais, loved The Office, liked Extra and was amused by the Podcast. But I think these dvds are not good at all. Very disappointing. There's some laughs for sure, but not nearly enough. And yes, the running time is pretty pathetic as well. Value for money Ricky? Don't think so......
  17. I'm always amazed at my folks. They're in their early 70's and they have the heating really down, I'm almost always feeling cold when I'm there and putting on extra layers. Put a bit of heating on and they're going on about it being hot. Good thing I suppose better than them being frail and cold. I prefer being warm to cold though.
