Music, music, music, and none of it from commercial radio (woohoo). And even some bits from The Damned - must be, Nitro’s their label right? Just click on through to Nitro [...]
Double hit in Ibaraki with one lot of thieves hauling an ATM from a post office and another lot taking off with 15 PCs and a couple of buckets of cash. There has also been an earthquake up there and one foreigner died in a traffic accident. You have been warned.

Well, guess who’s been a busy boy today.
Yes, Koizumi, Japan’s PM and self-professed lion king, presumably because of his hair-do, has kicked into overdrive the last couple of days.
First it was yesterday, when the helmsman gave a tongue-lashing to young MPs who were too busy playing with their mobile phones and reading comics during Parliament [...]

Well, I gotta ge me one of these…. just as soon as the price comes down to 100 yen (trust me it’ll happen). This one comes from our friends at The Japan Times. According to the article, KDDI has released a mobile with digital TV included. This is so freaking cool!
