Really? You think Michelle Yeoh and the first thing you think of is "Bond girl?" (rolling eyes) I'll be interested when the new movie comes out, and Ahn Sang Suu Kyi takes on the Myanmar junta in one stellar fight sequence!

It's my Sanshiro Sugata! (pause) Kinda explains a lot about me, if I think about it... hmmm...

With any luck, you only get married once, so have fun with it! Go, you crazy kids!

Well... there's the Pachinko parlors in Japan, so there are ways. Hell, I got a 500 Kip note in my wallet from Laos as my good luck charm -- can't sell that either.

I'd love to get back to roleplaying.

Of course, that requires a bit more dexterity with the chopsticks - your food doesn't always stick to the sticks as well. But Chinese shouldn't have a problem with being masters of chopstick eating. But you're right - the main key is sterilizing them after use.

I love the part where they review the combat and say, "No one would cause this many fights. This guy's trying to start a gang war - nobody wants that."

Great find! Since I lived in Korea, my friends asked me how real the current threat of war is on the peninsula. I've been saying, "Ain't gonna happen." Good to know I've got stats to back me up.

I still remember watching Japanese game shows and commercials at this cheap sushi place in college (two states away... and *sniff* closed) and thinking the same thing... WTF?!

"The musketeers fired at range?" Hmmm... you know, I haven't read up on the conquest of the Philippines. I'll have to clarify this gap in history soon.
