Hi, Raven..

I did for 5 years...

I loved it and they are VERY kind toward Americans.. I would go back to live in a heartbeat if my family wasn't here...

That was from 89-94 so I am sure things have changed...I lived in Fukuoka and it was AMAZING!

If you want to know anything more feel free to email me at kazoochickenbutt,aol...{#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

I may just take you up on that...............I have some worries because of the problems they have had with the nuclear plants...........not sure just where the job is or if they have secured it yet.........they just let him know that if they won the bid, the job was his and then he told me.................I have a gut feeling, simply because of the type of work he does, it will be somewhere near the restricted area, by that failed nuclear plant............................................raven

LOL...........yeah that's what I'm kinda afraid of LOL..........that they'll do the same to us.........now don't get me wrong..........the ONE place in the world I have always wanted to go to was Japan.........I spent my whole life with people asking me if I Eurasian.........although when I was little they didn't ask so politely........it's the eyes and cheekbones.........but two weeks versus a couple years are two totally different things.............and frankly, I'm not so much into adventure as I used to be LOL...........................................raven

I have absolutely no desire to see this flick, but I'm glad they've decided to show it. Like a few others, I wouldn't be surprised if this was, somehow, a publicity stunt. The last time there was this much hubbub over a video, we learned that things aren't always what they appear. Skeptical Yankee is skeptical.

Sony should release it on pay-per-view and donate all the profits to charity.

I seriously doubt that Sony would "stage" the hacking of their company and lose the good will of numerous stars, involve the FBI (who worked with the company for the past few months to investigate the hacking) and our government and risk an international incident just to push a Seth Rogen "stoner" comedy. Not just unlikely but totally off the wall!
