great news from Japan
my girlfriend told me about a trip she made to Kyoto this past weekend. She met an older American man who has spent the last 50 years in Kanagawa prefecture :wow: and has not bothered to vote via absentee ballot..until this year! The nice man was quoted as sayin,"we need to get ths asshole out of office fast!"
Also, the Japanese also know that * had his little bicycle "accident", and the misses asked me,"didn't he have knee surgery not so long ago? Who would go on a 17 mile mountain bike trip anytime after that?" And the last kicker--today Exxon Mobile and Showa Shell annonced gasolin price increases in Japan.

i don't know what the military people at Yokota--my old haunt--are thinking, butI doubt they're thrilled about * ...


Perhaps I ned to have my gf join the DU :evilgrin:

1. They did a report on the "Abu Ghraib" mispronunciations as well.
Wrote it out in big fat katakana subtitles at the bottom. "Abu-Ga-rape, Abu-Garab, Abu-Ga ga gaber" etc.. etc.. it was hilarious.

3. Really...they know about the tricycle wreck?
Damn. It was only a tiny blurb in the back of my paper and most people I know, aren't aware of it since they put so much makeup on him for the speech.

Thanks for the outside news. Why does their leader go along with Smirk?
