There's no way of checking folks beforehand. They would just do enough to get an account, and then....WHAMMO! Knucklehead City!

Yeah. Some times they act normal, then it turns bad. There was a guy, maybe 2 years ago, who wanted to know Yada Akiko's address, because he wanted to send her a 50 pages love letter. _________________

Usually one or two posts gives them away pretty easily: stupidity is hard to hide.

Hee hee, Jdorama.com let me (another knucklehead) in... <nyuk nyuk nyuk> Doh!

But seriously, a couple of interesting reads I'm in the midst of as well, to get back on topic, "Collapse" and "Guns, Germs, and Steel" by Jared Diamond.

Guns, Germs, & Steel is up there with Freakanomics as one of the most interesting books I've ever come across.

Cheers, Drunk

Sounds like you enjoyed Freakanomics, which I did. If so, I suggest you try The Undercover Economist.

This is more of a suggestion than "what I'm I reading." I'm looking for a some good Japanese horror short stories/novels. There has to be at least one J horror fan out there which can recommend something ^_^ _________________ "For those who believe, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not, none will suffice."

Princess Masako - Prisoner of the Chrysanthemum Throne For all you women out there that think it would be great to marry a prince, think again. (and it ain't the prince's fault, he's seems like a pretty nice guy)

I like Naruhito, simply because he stood up for her in a press conference, which made all the traditionalists scream murder. That was great.

Currently reading "Death March on Mount Hakkôda" by Nitta Jiro, while waiting for the next Murakami to be released in a few weeks around here.

Yes. They all forget about prince charming, around that age. Then they spend their time looking for a jerk, so they can turn him into prince charming. hehe
