Quote: On Saturday he suggested Emperor Akihito should visit the Tokyo shrine because those who died in wars did so in honour of their emperor. He had said: "From the viewpoint of the spirits of the war dead, they hailed 'Banzai' ['long life'] for the emperor. None of them said, 'Long live the prime minister'. now he has backed down? hmmmm I wonder why that could be

People talk about Japan having a democracy - yet the same party has been in power for how long now? and aren't Japanese people stereotypically followers? The day I see something revolutionary in Japan is the day that I will be suprised about it.

Quote: Originally posted by _spud: I read at Borough Markets (a fresh food market) in London that England eats 185,000 tons of sausage every year. It is a scary statistic, especially considering the poor quality of nearly all supermarket sausages (a fact common to most countries). This sounds like a far better project than the crow project. A good sausage is one of my favourite things, hence my inclination for German food and also northern Italy salami. 97, for some project variety check out the traditional Bavarian breakfast. It is a good one for your assignment as there is unique

I'd love to come mejane when are you heading up there for and for how long? -
wasn't too impressed with Lost Japan - seemed like a load of waffle. just finished "the time travellers wife" - its a romantic, comedy, sci fi book and the ending is AMAZING! man I cried but manly tears though *gruff* now reading - the pythongs an autobiography by the pythons; john peel - margrave of the marshes both excellent books about two of the best things this life has offered so far.

Define overweight though? You have the BMI which doesnt take into account the build of someone, for example I am 6ft and weight 15 stone 10, yet have an atheltic build and am considered overweight.

Girls would you fall for this (chat up line)?

Good movies you've seen recently
maninjapan replied to yamayamayama's topic in General off-topic discussions
Watched Just Friends today - not a great movie but by no means a bad movie, just full of cliches that you've seen before in any boy-loves-girl-but-girl- wants-to-be-friends movie. In fact distinctly average really. -
what's everybody listening to now?
maninjapan replied to Dokumanju's topic in General off-topic discussions
Currently listening to Virgin Radio online, dunno why just felt like listening to it. CD wise - David Gray - Life in Slow Motion is on pretty heavy rotation. Led Zep - How The West Was One - an amzing live album just for disc 1 but combined with disc 2 & 3 it's simply breathtaking. LCD Soundsystem - great little album full of massive tunes. -
Lifts - getting off
maninjapan replied to jade's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
I found the best way for me is twist my body and the board is flat with the slope. As the lift gets to the top ready to chuck you off i stand up and let the lift "push" you off, putting my back foot just in front of the rear binding. Then just let go and fine. This works for me but then I am strange.
