I drove to Chiba today to go to Ikea (pronounced イケア in Japanese, by the

was more than two hours of traffic jams to Funabashi, I was forced to listen
to Japanese FM radio.

You live in Funabashi? I was there for a few weeks in 1992.
Unfortunately I broke the heart of a wonderful young lady who lived a
few blocks north of the station.

If he lived in Funabashi he wouldn't have had to endure two hours of traffic
jam to get there.


And this is all day, every day, on channels like J-Wave and Tokyo Bay FM.

I really dislike Japanese radio, with a blind passion. I think it's all
a plot by Sony (etc.) to get people to buy portable music players.
