I just realized that the battle hasn't even begun *taps helmet, cocks assault rifle (preferably an AK)* Hai hai!! it's all kimutaku. I wondered what the hype was all about and well.. he is WORTH IT!! he's so kawaiiiii.. I constantly wonder how his wife handles the fact that her husband is like the poster boy for all poster boys in Japan..
that's a good question but i believe kimura takuya has children and he's been married for at least a few years...his wife was a celebrity in her own right but not nearly as popular as kimura takuya of course.....but yeah he's a great actor...he's the king of dramas! undisputed.

I know. Although there was a time when my day wouldn't be complete without a venti iced black tea with 4 pumps classic 4 pumps valencia.. but that was summer, so i digress. I'm not that big on coffee. Probably 5 ventis worth/month but that's it.
well i wasn't being critical..just sarcastic. i have other vices....i never was a big coffee drinker unless it was for school. then i would drink it like an idiot.

The last two that i had (non-fat vanilla latte and caramel frap) had 3 shots of espresso... i can actually feel my heart slowly inching out of my chest. scary.. but worth it.. i was upbeat in class.. <--- me
ventis are serious indulgence...one think i will say...when i was in japan last year i had a green tea frappacino in shibuya which was absolutely FANTASTIC
.....i loved it....since then some starbucks here offered that drink but it tasted like crap in comparision to the japanese version.

you must take into consideration though that the Japanese do know their tea unlike here in the states.. No offense meant to baristas that might be posting here. But when it comes to sugar overload.. the US knows how to do it..

well you hit the nail on the head. yes, their obession with food and traditional expertise with regard to green tea results in a superior product. yes, us, americans tend to have a desire to OD on the sugar.
I'm currently watching Water Boys 2...(waiting for the subs for episodes 6+ if anyone can help me find some kind of guide or tralsations please pm me i have the episodes in raw) and Good Luck!!
Currently downloading Water Boys 2005 SP :o
I just finished Water Boys movie, Water Boys 1, Swing Girls
Just finished Best partner, a 1997 comedy/drama revolving around two salarymen who work in the same office, both named Ichiro Suzuki (neither of whom should be confused with THE Ichiro Suzuki who, btw, is starring in one of the year-end Ninzaburo Furuhata specials; boy, I'd love to get a English sub of that special). Lightweight series, but until the last two episodes where it kinda bottoms out, it was pretty entertaining. Maki Sakai is very engaging as the wife of one of the Ichiros.
just recently finished Last Christmas, and Young Father (Yanpapa). saw the first eps. of a Korean drama called Dating Now, it was pretty good, I think I'll check out the rest... got somemore J-doramas dling right now _________________

I finished Gokusen a couple of weeks ago, and let me tell you.. it was awesome! I love Jun!! Not only is he a great singer/dancer, but he can definitely act! Yes indeed. (I can't wait to watch Gokusen 2)
Right now, I'm watching Hana Yori Dango. It's sooo good! (Another dorama with Jun in it! Yay!) Nooo.. but it's almost over.. I don't want it to end...
I'm also watching Sekai no chuushin de, ai wo sakebu.. so far so good.

honest to goodness, i only watched gokusen 2 for the boys.
jin + koike + moco chan..
eye candy..
the series in itself is a walking disaster.
*rolls eyes*
i wouldn't mind a third installation if they put the dudes from 1 and 2 together..
blah....i saw the first episode and bemoaned the waste of life that i just squandered while watching that crap. eye candy is great but it does not make for good television storytelling....
it's like somebody watching baywatch for the expert writing and wonderful acting......
