You might find this website interesting. I know that I do. It will tell what it's like to teach English at an English school in Japan. I do not and have never taught at one of these schools, so I always am intrigued by stories from inside.
I don't comment very much on what life is like in Japan. Maybe because it's all too normal now. The truth is, it's all very normal.
Al Gore the Third was arrested yesterday, but he was driving a Prius, so it's okay. No hypocrisy there. And a liberal hippie with marijuana? Come on!
