Shinzo Abe, there is trouble between us:
TOKYO (Reuters) - Japanese students need to work harder, spend more time in school and face stricter discipline, advisers to Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said on Wednesday in a report the premier described as "wonderful."
Japanese students need to spend more time in school? Six days a week, twelve to fourteen hours a day is not enough? In the time I have spent bitch-slapping Kim Jong Il back and forth - and it has been a fine time, with strange, incongruous beards - have I overlooked the real monster in our midst?
Don't make me welcome you to the English world, Abe. It a medical fact that I have no qualms.
I woke up in a strange place is the work of Marc Heiden , born in 1978, author of two books (Chicago , Hiroshima ) and some plays , and an occasional photographer .
