Really sorry I missed this event... (ToT)... ( View formatted comment » )

I have been a reader for over a year, but I guess I fall under the category "Taking a Break" Congratulations on the CNN feature Danny! You inspire a lot of us! ( View formatted comment » )

Great photos, Danny! Gotta get myself one of those cool cams... ( View formatted comment » )

What a great Rick Roll! Your videos get better all the time, Danny! ( View formatted comment » )

I find it a little crazy how moms make their kids keep these super busy schedules: 5:30 English, run to piano class at 7:00, then after that cram school for high school entrance exams that won't take place for another 7 years, etc etc etc... I did ballet and piano when I was a kid, but only one at a time, and only on Saturdays. I self-taught myself how to play the guitar when I was in high school, too. I can't do anything really well, though. ( View formatted comment » )

I like Oedo Onsen Monogatari in Odaiba. Been there a few times. It's an Edo Period-style bathhouse with probably the same amenities as Manyo... ( View formatted comment » )

Thanks for the link, Danny! Just a few more days... I wish the Sakura season was longer... ( View formatted comment » )

Great pictures, Danny! I also went on the weekend. Got a few more places I want to visit to take pictures of, too! ( View formatted comment » )

Looks really scary... ( View formatted comment » )

I heard from some people that some Japanese ISPs have been warning users who get caught downloading copyrighted material. Do you think they will in the future? ( View formatted comment » )

It was taken in Kyoto. I forget the name of the bridge but according to the guide, it's pretty well known... ( View formatted comment » )

Maybe for fun I'd go, but with most of these fortunes, horoscopes and stuff, I just think: if it's good, I'll believe it, and if it isn't then the fortune teller was a fake or something... hehehehehe... ( View formatted comment » )

Was thinking that the MacBook Air should be my next purchase... But then after a couple of months, something even better might come along... Should I wait? Decisions... decisions... ( View formatted comment » )

I thought there were more of us women readers/bloggers... Great stats, though, Danny! ( View formatted comment » )

Osaka saw a lot of live action, I see. Too bad I haven't witnessed anything as exciting as thousands of police officers chasing after a single lone man, who I presume wasn't armed... ( View formatted comment » )

Astounding Photos of Miko... I'd never gotten the chance of taking a photo of one. ( View formatted comment » )

Looks like a pro video, Danny! Nice work! Your dancing stuff keeps getting better. Though I have to admit I enjoyed the music and the dancing of the first two videos more. ( View formatted comment » )

I was using YahooBB for the longest time, then I switched to a small unheard of company because they offered internet + cable TV. Connection wasn't great so I went back to YahooBB. Great downloading speeds with YahooBB. ( View formatted comment » )

I think it's a good idea to sort of limit how much pocket money you give your kids. It makes them value things like earning their own, saving money, etc. Especially here in Japan where there are so many places and so many things to spend money on. ( View formatted comment » )

It'll be like a car alarm: when you want to piss off your neighbor, just kick his car's tire. This time, when you want to pull pranks on your neighbors, do a hide and seek with their cellphones. ( View formatted comment » )

Haven't been to Okinawa yet. I'd really want to go someday... I think goya is called bitter gourd. I'm not a big fan of it, but it has cancer fighting properties. One of those wonder vegetables. ( View formatted comment » )

Sorry to hear about that Danny. I myself had a very good childhood, but I still don't want to outgrow it. I often still play with little kids, play in the playground (especially the swing), watch cartoons (anime, too, of course), play pranks on "adults", and buy character stuff (I love Hello Kitty!). While I'd never been bullied, I always stood up for kids who were. I always got back at those bullies, a lot of them are really dumb. ( View formatted comment » )
