GTJ - You brought a happy smile to my day, much thanx ROFL
Sengetsu - Ill make sure my Uncle Joe doesnt go to Japan and change his name, very odd and scary that you picked Joe Johnson.
When you think about it we are all foreigners, in the country of our choice. If someone feels that where they are living at a certain point in time is Home, and creates a special place for it in their heart, then who cares if others view them as foreigners?
I know that Australia will always have a place in my heart, and yet I feel like a foreigner in the country to which i was born. Im of a mixed race and thus i dont look or act like anyone else in Australia, that makes me a foreigner.
Its not nice or fair to say to someone, 'You are foreign to this country/place, thus you dont fit' In this day and age who can realy say what dictates where you are form and where you should be?
I just asked about Japan, I didnt ask to be told that no matter how much I try i wont ever fit in.
Sorry
