The worst part is, people actually fall for these scams, when it clearly states, "blizz do NOT ask for password of any kind". but yeah.


Oh, happy 3 year anniversary then Pwnd, for you and the misses.

lol RR, you just need to let them know or something. Cause someone is getting pissed or screwed.
I am surprised they didn't ask for my Social Security Number and Bank Account.

white day and valentines day in japan are not what we have here.
Valentines day is the day that WOMEN give MEN gifts---not ladies getting candy!
White day is the day that MEN give WOMEN gifts---usually something white attached (and then the candy/flowers etc).

not what you'd think, but then again, the japanese are a strange bunch, for sure!

didnt get anything for v-day....not that I expected to either.

(and yes its a hallmark commercial holiday to the n-th degree).

Didn't read the whole email but ya if they asked for your pass it's bs. Though it could be fun to screw with them.

That is strange... but whatever, let them do what they want.

They do give men gifts, but it's not really something to discuss in public.

usually the guys who get the gifts are then obligated to get a gift for the girl who gave them one...so the girls will give a gift to the guy that they want to get a gift from....watched it happen, not a pretty sight really. (was there for 2 years of that.....though I never got anything or gave anything...none of my kids had those ideas about a foreigner).
Japan is just a strange bunch no matter what way you look at them. Glad to be back home!

My favorite Geiko commercial was the one with the squirrel that caused an accident. The "new" one are so boring now...

It's good to have a hurricane (that doesn't do any damage) before exam week, that way our teacher couldn't give us any thing to do during our vacations ^^.

Me, looks very interesting. "Bourne in Iraq" that was what first came to my head.

Kind of looks "cheesy", based on the trailers i've seen.

Well it started as a tropical storm and became a hurricane. Some islands got hit pretty hard but we got lucky.

typhoons didnt seem to slow the japanese schools down---had a bunch while I was there...2 in the same month, during the first they decided to send the kids home at lunch---right in the MIDDLE of the worst part of it (it wasnt even raining when I went to school that morning and by the time I went home ~5pm it was sunny again)....so the next time they sent the kids home almost as soon as they got to school----too bad as a teacher I had to stick around the whole day amusing myself.
