No, but the fact that the idea of simply wearing shoes in A home is barbaric to them is something I don't agree with. Japan historically tends to have a lot of arrogance with high culture.

I hate that. Many American cities have dedicated lanes to cycle in, and it's much more efficient than a biker trying to plow through a crown of people on their sidewalk. Nothing more annoying than the ringing of a bell and screech of tires behind me because I'm supposed to move out of the way of a cycler on the sideWALK.

Yeah, that is a bit confusing. I wish the 500 and 100 were also bills, or at least just the 500.


I'm not a cynic; I just like to play Devil's Advocate once in a while.
