And you're surprised :beaten:

Things I would rather not read...

There is mention of a Hollywood filmversion of the Japanese

story of the 47 samurai who avenged their lord. Called 'Chushingura' it has been done well quite a few times in Japan.

This H'wood effort is to star.......none other than.....Keanu Reeves.


Why...??

Klaaaaatu and the 47 Ronin??? :hehe: "Whoa! No way! Bogus! Excellent, dude!!!" :metaldevil:

Uh, not. :rolleyes:

(Sorry Peg, that bit was from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. When you said "Keanu" I couldn't not put that in :mrgreen:)

Seriously. What would a movie like that even look like? I shudder the thought.

I think the Japanese should make a movie about the American Revolutionary War using actors from Johnny's Entertainment. Jun Matsumoto would make an excellent George Washington.

Haha.

Matsujun should be the cherry tree that ol' George chops down. :beaten:

Dang, these guys should all be guests on The New Yankee Workshop: Norm can run 'em all through the surface plane. :rofl:

Maybe Norm will use them as dowels.

It's just that some are ridiculous, there's this one uphill road with speed limit of 20mph. There's no way a car can make it up the hill at that speed, it's not even a school zone, but sure enough there's a cop at the top of the hill just waiting. :shakehead:

You know for some municipalities, the revenue from citations is a significant stream of revenue for the city.

Yeah, I suppose. I've heard that state troopers have a quota to meet.

I'm sure it happens in some places.

I had a friend who drove and once she frightened the life out of me because she could not make a left turn. I thought I would never get home in one piece. Never drove with her again. She would probably have been fine in Beijing because she drove the way the bicyclist ride...wherever she wanted to go....!

I worked with a lady who couldn't make left turns. I thought it was the weirdest thing, especially how this hindered her life style. It was tough for her to find a job because she could only take routes with right turns, and she had to order her groceries through the mail because all the supermarkets near her required left turns to get to them...

My husband never liked driving in Paris. I never had to do that. But he could negotiate all the NYC traffic OK. I once had to drive behind him from Connecticut to Pennsylvania. Never having done a long trip I was very nervous. I had him take our small son with him and I had my mother with me. I figured that if I was going to have a problem I'd rather take my mother with me than risk losing my son. Go figure that out. Who was the child there.....???

LOL! Awww. Were you just afraid of the long drive, or just driving in and of itself? I think I'm a fine driver... but I do flinch around trucks and when changing lanes on the highway...
