  1. Sony aren't in the mood to give up market share to rivals, I thought they would go all out with the PS3 to make it as more powerful than xbox as possible.
  2. Lovely pyjamas and nice glasses. I bet echineko is swooning.
  3. Might be last year, but Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was good.
  4. Fuji, Livedoor strike $1.6 bln deal to end battle TOKYO, April 18 (Reuters) - Japan's Fuji Television Network Inc. agreed on Monday to pay a total $1.65 billion to end a two-month takeover fight over an affiliate with Internet portal Livedoor Co. in what analysts called a face-saving deal that offered little benefit to shareholders.

  10. Funny, didn't hear about that in the Japanese news. I wonder why.
  11. I just LOVE the feeling of contented tiredness. It's just so mellow.
  12. Anyone know of a resort in Japan that offers week-long tickets. I can't remember ever seeing that or hearing about it?
  13. My instructor was a girl too. Sexy girl as well. And a sexy skier. She could beat most of the lads. Thumbs up to girl skiers!
  14. I think it's just warning us about bananas and what might happen in the future.
  15. This is not meant to sound negative or anything, just want to get it in my mind. In an average/normal year, when abouts are the last big snowfalls of the season?

  17. From what I heard, they are "up and down" when you're near to the epicenter. And "side swaying" when you are further away. That make sense?
  18. Sticking my neck out a bit maybe, but I think everywhere'll be open by New Year.
