...well, I also found some katakana on "DJ Food: Refried Food" CD (ninja tune)
which Lance C. McGannon had made a review about a couple of weeks ago. In cas
e of this, there are two words on it .... the latter one sounds "HORESABI" but
the former one includes some character that doesn't even exist as Japanese. O
f course it's not Chinese nor Korean. Maybe some NINJA's secret language? Anyw
ay talking about the tracks in the CD, I expected something more FLABBY, but i
t was a little bit too tight for me. I boug
ht this one because I found a lot of names appearing on this list. OOOOPs, not
grumbling!
BTW, Why is it "NINJA TUNE" and "ZEN CD". Does the word "JAPAN" still stands f
or those weird things. Geisha-girls punching the Macintosh's keyboard....or so
me Samurai poeple enjoying Harakiri-CD-ROMs? Well, my root is deeply down in J
apan but spent my childhood in NY for about 3 years. It was early 70's. Listen
ed to Jackson 5, Osmonds....etc. Now living in TOKYO as a ordinary Japanese, I
feel like as if living in a communism country. IMO, a very few people are loo
king for freedom of choise....but there are
a lot of informations to make people feel yet unsatisfied. Now people are get
ting HOT saying "We have to do the INTERNET" "Do the INETERNET and be the Mast
er of English" kind of things. But what most of the networkers really do is to
download some rude pictures of blond beauties. Hmmm...weird people...and I'm
ome of those begging for JAZZY things via this list..ha,ha!
DOMO-DE-GOZAIMASU....
THANX
P.S. What's "GCSE Japanese".....just curious...
