Aye.
Should be good, by day a nice normal, pretty and very Japanese place. But on the weekends central Tokyo is just an hour or two away on the train.

First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Took a while for me to click there.
Don't know if I'm in that city yet (first choice was Kofu), just in the prefecture.

Oh, there are places in America where that's possible too... such as Hawaii. :blush:

San Francisco. :contract:
Didn't San Francisco have a really cold and snowy winter this year? :hmm:

Global warming and sadness that I left for New York.

While that adds some clarity, it doesn't really explain Viking's personality breakdown.

Shi is Japanese for city.

It's Chinese for lion.  And Poet.  And 10.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

They aren't eh? When coupled with their lack of standard alphabet & only 500 last names. They are fucked.

Not poet.  Poem.  And there are actually three different words for those three meanings.  The only common element is that their pronounciations are similar.  Different tone though.
