lin 0 Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 I always think it's bizarre when I am in Japan and schoolchildren can obviously see that I am not Japanese. And they come up to me and not say hello or something more normal, but... "Oh My God"? Link to post Share on other sites

badmigraine 0 Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 Not really relevant, but watching a vid the other day I saw the actor who played Suzuki-san in the Nova commercial years ago ("The girl is crying...oh you dropped a handkerchief..."). Looks like he's still in the business. Link to post Share on other sites
