Man burns down house after loss of Gundam toys
This past weekend, a 29-year old man named Yoshifumi Takabe burned down the large two-story house in Kobe that he shared with his mom. It was a suspected suicide & murder attempt based on the fact that his mother had thrown away his collection of Gundam figurines. At least that's what he told po...

One of my all-time favorite stores in Japan is Uniqlo &mdash it's like the GAP, except the styles and cuts are a lot more contemporary and its cheaper. Now we're hearing that Tadashi Yanai, the guy who founded UNIQLO and the richest guy in Japan according to Forbes, might be buying the GAP. Lin...

Adam Tokunaga looks like an ordinary ojisan (old man), but apparently he's Japan's #1 sexpert. And his book, called Slow Sex Secrets, is now available in English. I didn't read the whole thing because the thought of an ojisan teaching me about sex was a little bit... um... interesting. But I did...

I am guessing it helps increase aim, getting closer to the target, but if you cant aim after peeing the same way since you've been born, then something is terribly wrong. Go to a doctor and get a cat scan.
