Bush needs to leave the illegal immigrants alone. If he deports all of the illegal immigrants prices for groceries will sky rocket. LEAVE THE CHEAP LABOR ALONE BUSH!!!!!!!!! Here's a stat for you... 4.6-percent unemployment rate in April 2006(1). So based on your logic here, although 4.6-percent of...

The question asked here doesn't give enough options for the many replies that you can have. For starters, you are all assuming (just like the media and even American politicians do) that most illegal immigrants are here because they've snuck in from a border or something. Almost HALF (that's 50%) of...

Very good first episode! Some interesting things I noticed: Miyama Karen is playing the young Sakurako. Remember from HOTMAN 2? Anotehr link... She plays the paper piano - just like what Nanami did on HOTMAN 2. It has been awhile since I've last seen a morning drama that wasn't taking place in mode...

I think that we have to first realize Hamasaki Ayumi is the artist singing. Not the artist directing the cinematography. She is not the Video Director. Ultimately, those designs and creations come from the director's mind. Ayumi's videos also feature a variety of ethnicities, the ones that stand out...

Now, about this drama, Misaki Itoh gives me this warm, fuzzy feeling inside when she acts cute and when she becomes the #1 hostess :wub:. I love this drama, like the many other dramas this season. She does give a nice feeling. In the interviews, they all agreed that this character is much more like...

If I get the OPPO DVD player (US $200), it would cost more than the TV I bought 7 years ago for 189 US dollars. I think most people would agree to this: If you have a good HDTV, get the OPPO, otherwise you aren't getting the best out of your TV. If you have crappy TV like me, get something inexpens...

Kdramas usually have a bad ending nowadays because someone MUST die for the story to be complete. Death is an all too easy way for the writer and director to get emotion out of the viewers. It's the poor writer's panacea. Koreans rarely find anything besides death to produce viewers' empathy for the...

I think that the actress playing Keum-Young has on too much mascara and foundation, that's why her face appears unflatteringly--in my opinion, anyway. Yeun-Seng, Jang-Geum's friend, also wears a little too much eye make-up as well. :unsure: But am I the only person who thinks that it's distressing t...

Akiko Yada isn't very funny to me--her acting is also just all right, she hasn't blown me away yet. Uchiyama Rina is a fine actress, but she hasn't done anything I'm totally in lo...

99.9% of the female Korean entertainers have cosmetic surgery done on their eyelids to give them a line over their eye or a fold.

With so many of the Korean entertainers getting cosmetic or plastic surgery...it's become really hard for me to even separate any of their looks apart. The people who usually who don't look human (if you're going to do it, it should at least look natural, ha) aren't young, so that's good. But the yo...

I like this season of GOKUSEN 2 as much as the first! The class seems a bit more violent, but I think overall, the class is supposed to be worse? For example, ODAGIRI works at a night bar, and the main leader goes around beating up people for no good reason. He is also keen on beating up Yankumi, de...
