Well, in response to MeestahJ's disturbed blurb about the newest craze in caring for your unwanted offspring, I thought this would be another good one to "throw out" (Bddum Tsstst). For all you soon to be parents out there intent on living your lives as the Japanese government deems fit, here's another PSA from our friends at the DIET.

Turns out the government has decided AGAINST releasing a plan that encourages breast feeding and discourages the youth of the nation to watch so much TV and be constantly tied to cell phones and the internet.

As you walk through the valleys of that cursed womb you call home, fear not! Yours will no longer be a fate covered in maggots & rotting adult diapers! For years, you fought through the kicks to the belly, the botched hanger surgeries, the small quatities of ingested bleach. You got Moxy, kid.

For those of you out there who have already developed your eyes, give this a looksee:





So don't go booking that one-way ticket to the seedy dumpster behind the park just yet, kiddos. Instead, nuzzle up to those warm embriotic fluids and sleep to dream of the day when you're plucked out of the drop-box like a used copy of Mona Lisa Smile.

Well, I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry at this one, but it appears Mitsutoshi Fukatsu, a soon to retire Train Station Attendant has finally said "I love you" to his wife, after three decades of marriage. Way to go Mitsutoshi! We all support you for your years of neglect...er, momentary statement of fondness.

While this may seem to many like an extremely effort layden step, large enough to keep any wife working... er... happy for at least another 3 decades, it appears that Mr. Fukatsu views this as the first step of many, along with many other soon to retire Japanese men who have suddenly realized how much they are madly in love with the women who have served them for the last few decades without so much as a smile in response.

Of course none of this has anything to do with the "impending law change that gives housewives a bigger share of their spouse's pension" in case of divorce,(Tabuki, The Associated Press) which is expected to provide a serious boost in the pocket cash of divorce lawyers all across Japan. Not to mention a surge in individual blue haired old women flooding the department stores, blurry-eyed-drunk on freedom and the sweet sweet liquer of consumerism (and perhaps a catarac or two).

The whole retiree love movement kind of makes me wish I was an aging emotionally unavailable husband so I could jump on the old Love and Gratitude bandwagon. Maybe get a bit of blue-haired action while I'm at it, hey? Something tells me, however, that like most "movements" of the aged, this one will take a while before it finally splashes down in a big way.

Until then, I'm off to my local Nursing Home, as I still don't have a date for the weekend.

Mainichi News published a story from Spa! magazine, titled "Surefire ways to lure the ladies (Just don't mention the 'Love Hotel')"

Love hotels are as common as vending machines in Japan, however it seems due to a gaudy and tasteless image they have obtained over the years, they are having to try new and exciting ways of enticing people in to their rooms.

'Will Tokyo' is a love hotel in the capital that has the perfect answer following a session of breathtaking sex -- pure oxygen pumps, according to Spa! (11/14).

And if speed is your thing, it's hard to go past Room 505 at the Towers Hotel in Osaka, which boasts of having its own go-kart and 3-meter-square circular track to allow for a buzz between bonks.

The option to take a few breaths of pure oxygen, or run a few laps of a go-kart course after doing the deed are just two of the many new ideas being put in to place by Japans love hotel owners.

The article goes on with some tips from 'Sanzi', a professional street-side tout, who claims he pursuades over 100 women a year to accompany him to different love hotels.

"...you need to think a bit. Tell a woman who likes movies, for instance, that you guys can go to a room with a 100-inch projector but it's in a love hotel and she'll be more likely to go there because it seems the reason for doing so is to watch a movie and not just bonk,"
