Banzai! and other Japanese Gestures
" Banzai literally means ten thousand years (of life). It is shouted in happy occasions while raising both arms. People shout banzai to express their happiness, to celebrate a victory, to hope for longevity and so on. It is commonly done together with the large group of people."

Ronald-san wants email with his Happy Meal

That's pretty amazing. I didn't know there were 4000 McDonald's in Japan? Wow. How many are there worldwide? Geez. So, no mention of the cost of using the McDonald's wi-fi. I hear the Starbucks net is not free. hmph. Figures. Why don't we band together with the non-chain (or psuedo-chain) used bookstores and coax them into setting up wi-fi and a local coffee brand? I think it would be awesome if Half Price Books and Little City could broker a deal. That combination would revive the true slacker in me.
