		<description>Hi Tombonator! Thanks for commenting!

I think a lot of people have fond memories of Takeshi's Castle... There are a lot of other crazy Japanese shows, some that are even still on-air. They really know how to entertain...</description>

		<description>Man I remember watching this show when I lived in japan as a kid, especially durning the summertime when we'd go visit my mom's family in Okinawa.  Course I coudln't understand what they were saying, but it sure was funny as hell watching all those crazy stunts as a 10 year old.  Ahh the good ol days</description>

		<description>Very valid points there, simaldeff!

I would actually still be living at home if I were back home. It would not only be more convenient, I would really want to be with my family.

Actually, there was an article that I was hoping to link to, one far more outrageous than the one I linked. It was about senior citizen children living with their senior citizen parents in Japan, and the children were still sponging off of their parents. I couldn't find it anymore though! I saw it on Asian Offbeat a few months ago, but couldn't seem to find it again. If I find it, I'll link to it here.</description>

		<description>LOL the average age for leaving your parents home in Italy was around 30 ... when asked girls said it was for economical issues (they don't pay the rent) ... but boys simply told : "Who loves you more than your mother?"
Why should girl live near theirparents? and why not the boys? What about parents that only have sons?

If we take your "miso-soup condition", with the use of a good thermos bottle and a Concorde plane (admiting it would be used again) a japanese girl could live in Europe, no problem! Only question is : you don't have the ingredients in Europe to cook a good miso soup for your parents.</description>
