Welcome to the place to be to discuss all kinds of things about Japan !! I hope that you stop by often enough for us to get to know you. There is an area on sports which I think you might like. Maybe my most favorite sport is the old 'elbow exercise'--you know, warm up by opening the refrigerator and taking out the can. stretch the muscles which lead to the fingers by popping the top, and then, while sitting (usually) do as many elbow lifts as it takes to finish the contents of that first can. Repeat until you are too drunk to open the refrigerator again...exercise finished.
Hope to hear from you again !! SEE you !! MM
