The new horror movie "The Wall Man"(Kabe Otoko) is based on a manga written by Daijiro Moroboshi (great site) who earned a cult following from Japanese horror manga fans. Here is the trailer. The horror movie will be one of the summer features :-) :-)
By the way, this is more horror for me: "A gallery of Tokyo's freakiest fashion trend: goth Lolitas." Where is this country going?
I got an email from this site "gut feelings." They have a good post about Japanese hamburgers. Check the recipe. It looks so delicious. Thanks, Emma!
The AP said Billy Blanks had been greeted like a rock star in Japan. Yes, he was, every media followed him and he was a sensation in Japan last week. Did you see the movie (which I hate) "Lost in translation"? Billy had to appear on a comedy show too. I hope he enjoyed it. LOL
I wrote this "New wearpon for roach" I found some posts that they used the stuff. They say the insects got to be apparently dead immediately and then died from severe hypothermia. I will get it because the spray has no insecticide element. I found some crazy posts too: he used it to make "freeze pudding" (he said he likes it)...orz. Maybe I will write about this Hyosatsu topic this summer; I am looking forward to other craziness. By the way, this summer the radical racket bug killers are popular, they say. This one has shock voltage!
Finally, is there somebody from Taiwan or who knows Taiwan very well? Please let me know the NEWEST and CLEANEST hotel in Taipei. I will visit Taiwan this summer. Thanks!
r9xesN Good point. I hadn't thought about it quite that way. :)

There are very few roaches where I live, but I have a serious "thing" about spiders (arachnophobia!) Spiders are just fine as long they stay outside where they belong. If I see one in my house I start screaming. I can't stand the sight of 'em! If I see a spider anywhere at anytime in my home, I have to kill it immediately or I can't sleep (@-@)wondering where the heck it is or if it will crawl on me (and bite me!) while I am sleeping! (totemo kawaii!) But I absolutely will not touch one, dead or alive; so, I have also found some "earth friendly" (no insecticide) methods for spider removal/killing. I use extra-hold hair spray (pump spray kind is just fine), but not if the spider (or roach for Mai-san ;)) is on a surface that might stain. Otherwise I use a vacuum cleaner with a long hose and nozzle - or else I call a MAN to take care of it ~ what else are men good for (besides the obvious;)) other than taking out the trash and killing bugs? (a joke!;))

So, what did you hate about "Lost in Translation," besides the fact that it was boring, pointless, and somehow managed to be set in Japan but irrelevant to Japan? ;-)
