What cracks me up is, this guy has over 200 videos all of trains in Japan. Think about that the next you think you don't have a life. Shake Head
    I have a vision of this guy with a big chart in his bedroom saying, "Let's see, next week I'll make a video of the 11:06 from Kagoshima"

      At least the 11.06 will probably be there when he expects it to. In Australia, if you wanted to video the 11:06, you would start getting ready at 11:27 Bleah

      I think this guy must have been in the comedy Tokkyu Tanaka San-go with Koki and Chiaki Kuriyama. It's about train otaku.

      I like the one with the shinkansen in front of Fujiyama. I never knew they had ones painted yellow.

      O.K., there's this guy on YouTube that has over 200 videos of Japanese trains. This is my favorite, because it's short and sweet: http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=iLr7ZHAq1ro


      rofl I actually subscribe to this guy's videos. I find them fascinating. That shinkansen with Fujisan in the background is superb. Yeah, he's just one guy but there's a lot of fans that take pictures/videos of trains. For some reason I think of Chemical Brothers "Star Guitar" whenever I watch any kind of train videos.

      I like this video of the Yurikamome line to Odaiba.

      Nobody can shop like the Japanese:http://fnn.fujitv.co.jp/en/news/headlines/articles/CONN00140477.html


      I remember I was living in New York when they opened the first American H&M store back in 2000...it was a big deal but I don't recall that level of enthusiasm.

      Now There are over 100 H&M stores throughout the US...they even have one at the Beverly Center.

      Given the love of stylish fashion in Japan, I'm surprised it took them so long to open up in Japan.

        That's because for the Japanese, shopping is a contact sport. Beaten

      The fact that I am wearing a pretty cool costume (I'm on the right) is even more reason.
