Fri, 21 April 2006 We begin with Dave visiting a local art gallery where he sees a lot of blokes pissing against the wall. In 'Website of the Week' we take a squint at www.alllooksame.com, where we discover that despite living in the Orient for 13 years we can't distinguish between Chinese, Japanese and Koreans. A digression into why Japanese ladies' legs are compared to radishes and mention of Dave's first romantic exploit in Hiroshima bring us to this week's STAVKA song, the anti-war epic 'The First Casualty'. Andy then muses upon the culinary fare found in the north of England, in particular the fabled dish known as 'peawet 'n' scraps', before we tuck into a discussion on 'Nihonjinron' - myths of uniqueness which the Japanese like to propound about themselves. Muffin the cat puts in an unexpected appearance, and we round out with another collection of idioms form Dave. Comments[363] |
