Dondake!

Usagi

I wrote that Japan McDonald's started to sell Autumn Speical bergar "Tsukimi". I found the TV ad on Youtube. It's cute. "I got a Tsukmi bergar", "DONDAKE!" DONDAKE is the recent popular word. We use it with the meaning "great!", "really!?", "What!!", "can't believe." I heard o-ne chara make up artist "IKKO" started to use it first. DONDAKE will be the word of the year in 2007.

I like this, a collection of Indian Horror movies posters. DONDAKE!!!

Century is the small PC and Game parts maker, their naked series is interesting. HDD case, HDD stand, HDD cover. I like their idea. Those will be enough for HDD as long as I use it on my desk at home.

In Japan, the docmentary TV show "the psychic investigator" series is very popular. The American psychic Joseph MacMoneagle and a few other Psychics have remote vieweing ability and find missing poeple on the show. I did not watch the show yesterday, but I was pretty impressed to read the article about the show today. Tamura is a member of Japanese comedian groupe "KIRIN", he has a tough history. He lost his mother when he was in 5th grade and four years later, his family house was in foreclosure for some reason. One morning, his father said to the three kids "Look! we can't live together in this house anymore. Take care of yourself. Break up!!" and dissappeared. The three kids lived in the park for one month and finally could rent a small apartment with his relative's help. Now his experience supplies material for his comedy talk. Though, it would be hard to live as three kids only. After the breaking up, he didn't know about his father, so he asked the TV show to find him. Then?! Joe MacMoneagle did remote viewing from the US and finally found his father!! Hmm I wanted to watch the show. I hope someone puts the show on Youtube. When I find it, I will update.

Mari, how do you write "Dondake" in Japanese? Is there a Kanji for it, or just plain Hiragana? どんだけ? Thanks!
