your sex and the citizen article was really interesting! you're a great journalist.

enjoyed the urzawa. looked for the clips on youtube but nada. what are the keywords to search with when looking for these handy clips. do tell...!john

this is the best restaurant in san francisco! i highly recommend it.

I liked your Anatomy of a Nerd article...especially your use of the term epic to describe shopping...priceless. You have an interesting blog, it makes me so envious of you. Longing to return to the land of the rising sun.

you love unko? EIUW.

We love your writing. Very smooooth.

hello i loved your book my brother got it for me for my birthday ^_^. also if you could really send me a message on here i got a question to ask thx

regarding your Dr Sha article:

Much or Dr. Sha's basic teachings are very good. But beware how far he goes with it (especially since 2007): Dr. Sha makes incredible claims and charges obsene amounts of money. In short, he believes that he has been given special power from the "Divine" to transplant souls. So he has transplanted the Soul of Jesus (and a few other saints) to himself, and charges $5000 to transplant souls of other saints to his followers (that's after they've met the prerequisite of a $2000 Karma cleansing and all the courses they have to take). Recently he has said there has been an immaculate conception 'just like Mary' in China. Thats getting a little far out there, dont you think? Yet he says he is not teaching a religion.

ex-followers are starting to tell their story about this new religion (aka cult)on the forums.
here are a few of them.
