A look back at Japan in the 80’s: Awesome Youtube Series
October 11, 2008
Basically this guy was back in Japan in the 80’s with a few friends and had one of those insanely huge 80’s-style camcorders with him. Lots of good videos including capsule hotels, Japanese fashion, popular Tokyo hotspots, and more, all from the 80’s.

The 3rd installment of video I took in Japan in 1987.
Capsule Hotels were quite popular in the media back then, so we had to go check one out for ourselves!
Does anybody know what is costs to stay in one these days?
Big thanks to BusanKevin and KansaiPJ for referencing my vending machine vlog as well as Nozokimidayo. They are all great Japan vloggers.

McCain’s Admitted Keating Five Wrongdoing a “smear”
October 7, 2008
In 1999, John McCain acknowledged his role in the 1980’s Keating Five savings and loan scandal that rightly stained his career. “The fact is,” he said, “it was the wrong thing to do.” His campaign today instead claimed McCain’s intervention years ago with federal regulators on behalf of Charles Keating was merely a “political smear job.”

Keating Economics: McCain & the Making of a Financial Crisis
October 6, 2008
The current economic crisis demands that we understand John McCain’s attitudes about economic oversight and corporate influence in federal regulation. Nothing illustrates the danger of his approach more clearly than his central role in the savings and loan scandal of the late ’80s and early ’90s.

Futurama on 80’s video games
October 4, 2008
This clip features video game references to Pac Man/Ms. Pac Man, Space Invaders, Mario, and Donkey Kong, as well as to Shasta and Rush. The infamous “All your base are belong to us!” Engrish reference also makes an appearance. Quite hilarious.
