What A Poor Pharmacist

Lyrics

doko ni yukebaii
anata to hanarete
ima wa sugisatta
toki ni toikakete

nagasugita yoru ni
tabidachi wo yume mita
ikoku no sora mitsumete
kodokuwo dakishimete

nanagareru namida wo
toki no kaze ni kasanete
owaranai anata no
toiki wo kanjite
dry your tears with love
dry your tears with love

Loneliness, your silent whisper
Fills a river of tears through the night
Memory, you never let me cry
And you, you never said goodbye

Sometimes our tears blinded the love
We lost our dreams along the way
But I'd never thought you'd trade your soul to the fates
Never thought you'd leave me alone

Time through the rain has set me free
Sands of time will keep your memory
Love everlasting, fades away
Alive within your beatless heart

dry your tears with love
dry your tears with love

nanagareru namida wo
toki no kaze ni kasanete
owaranai anata no
aoi bara ni kaete

dry your tears with love
dry your tears with love

nanagareru namida wo
toki no kaze ni kasanete
owaranai anata no
toiki wo kanjite

dry your tears with love
dry your tears with love
dry your tears with love
dry your tears with love

Takeshi's Castle

Have u ever heard of this gameshow which was very popular in japan. Its about this stupid general dressed in Napoleon style combat dress (with fake cutlass) and a bunch of 100-200 volunteers or what that he employs to "storm" this ancient Japanese castle owned by this japanese lord called Lord Takeshi (bad guy).

The gameshow has 10 stages, and each stage they make it such that some dudes are eliminated, like falling into mud pools (and die), or falling into a rope bridge, or getting tagged by Takeshi's henchmen in some stupid maze with helluva doors (and they're considered dead). Before each stage they show Takeshi with his advisor in traditional Japanese dress talking cock about how the volunteers are gonna "die" and how brillant they are, and doing some other japanese stuff like reading poetry (?) and doing some stuff with the fan and dancing Noh. Quite amusing, in fact.

Then the last round would be whatever survivors of the previous 9 rounds plus the general who led them engaged with Lord Takeshi's Elite Guard (and himself), who would be mounted on dodgem-like cars with lasers or water guns that they use to hit some spot on the enemy cars, hence rendering it "dead". Basically everyone will be given a personal interview, (i.e. name, which part of japan, job, hobby, etc etc) then they get on the dodgems and slug it out.

In all the episodes that i've seen, the good guys never won before... cos the prize money is 1million yen or wad... anyways the good guy general will like "i'll try again next time with more volunteers!!"
and the show ends.

Why do i think of this suddenly.... its like all the reality shows nowadays, like survivor, amazing race, etc, all lack this kind of fun and creativity, i guess. Whatever u see, it's quite predictable. And we just watch at how other people get themselves into deep shit, bitch about the task, etc etc. That's not how a gameshow should be like... i think it should be pure fun, getting real slimy / with hell lot of foam / sauce / soap or whatever (not the "brown sauce" gameshow, that's ultimately lame).

here's one to the japs for creating this great gameshow.
