Proud Fiji Soldiers
they go and completely redeem themselves! Apparently some Fijian soldier recently pissed on a Japanese woman mid flight. I dunno if this counts as being a member of the "mile high club," but I'm willing to bet there are not many people out there who have taken a golden shower at 25,000,001 feet (ok ok, this is an arbitrarily arrived at number and for all I know 25,000,001 feet could be halfway to M13. Thats not the point here. The point is at the end of a stream of frothy urine.)

But just look at the uniforms. They don't exactly make it difficult to whip it out do they? I wonder if after this fiasco the fearsome Fiji military will be required to wear pants, and no more manskirts (is that pleather?)

"The Sun said the soldier exposed his private parts to a young female Japanese tourist and urinated on her. Other passengers on the flight were alerted to the incident when the tourist screamed."

This dolphin in Okinawa lost her tail fin to disease. The Bridgestone tire company invented a rubber one and donated the $83,000 replacement fin.

(As seen on neatorama.)

Thats right little piggies, apparently, the recent Natto Diet Revolution, (or NDR as I like to call it-- nearly as popular as DDR) has been based in lies, LIES I tell you! According to my secret sources (ahem* Japan Times ahem*), one of the co-conspiritors in Jan. 7th and 28th's "Hakkutsu! Aruaru Daijiten II" TV program, which led to an immediate shortage of Natto in supermarkets across Japan, has admitted to fabricating the details of the program, which claimed Natto helps people stay thin. Personally I don't see the point of being skinny if no one can stand to be in the same room as you because of your stench. I mean I've got some rank smelling feet, but at least I can put socks on to cover that up!

So you can stop shoveling that putrid foot goo into your pie hole, and if you really want to lose some weight, TAKE A WALK!

Mitsutaka Uchikoshi survived 24 October days on a mountain above Kobe without food or water. Apparently he tripped and hit his head while descending the mountain and fell into an unusual hypothermic state. Doctors are stunned that he lived at such a low body temperature and survived without water.



"I find it quite incredible that [Mr Uchikoshi] had no fluid at all," Dr Frankie Phillips said. "Physiologically that isn't possible."

"Deadly 'iku iku byo' reaches a climax in Japan"

Now this is just something I just could not not write about... an 'illness' that gives Japanese women orgasms 24 hours a day, and with suspicions that it might be deadly! Just a tad hard to believe, but interesting none the less.

"Even the vibration of my mobile phone is enough to set me off," she says. "My friend said there's something called Iku Iku byo (Cum Cum Disease). I guess I've got that."


That is one of my favourite comments from the article. "I guess i've got that" - so blasé about it. Another good one is from Manga artist Akira Narita who claims to have slept with over 1000 women, claiming to have come across the illness a number of times:

"We'd only need to stare in each other's eyes and they'd start wiggling about, gripping tightly onto whatever was around them and their bodies would start to shake."


Apologies for this possibly-not-quite-appropriate topic, but those interested can read the full story at Asian Sex Gazette.
