  3. Nice one MarcO. When you started with "Well this has been a great game!!! Thanks to everyone..." I thought you were gonna try to put an end to the game. And I was gonna laugh and continue playing. You missed a category "Songs with sweet pedal steel presence/solos" but I digress, that must've taken a long time to compile. Thanks for the hard work, I like checking in to this game everytime I sit down! Theme - Worst Song Ever 1. Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls 2. Aerosmith - I don't Wanna Miss a Thing 3. Aqua - Barbie Girl 4. Billy Ray Cyrus - Achy Breaky Heart 5. Wham - Wake Me Up Before You Go GO 6. Paul McCartney - A Wonderful Christmas Time 7. The Eagles - Hole in the World 8. Los Del Rio - Macarena 9. Extreme - More Than Words 10. Eminem - Shake That Ass 11. 12.
  4. Theme: The Last Shall Be The First: Song titles must start with the last word of the previous title 1. Public Enemy - Fight The Power 2. Procol Harum - Power Failure 3. Scars of Tomorrow - Failure in Drowning 4. Woody Guthrie - Drowning Man 5. Dylan - Man of Peace 6. Neil Young - Peace of Mind 7. John Lennon - Mind Games 8. Peter Gabriel - Games Without Frontiers 9.

  5. rich businessmen, wives of rich business men, it doesn't matter who! often private lessons lead to dinners and good hospitality in general (the korean way).
  6. Showing up without a job is perfectly legal. As I said in the last post, Canadians in particular have it sweet cuz our tourist visas are good for 6 months. Once you get here (on your tourist visa), you find a job, then your employer will send you on a "visa run" to Japan to obtain a work visa. This visa run is on them by the way (free trip!) Now if you start WORKING while you are still on your tourist visa, that is illegal. Not that I'd worry about it too much. And once you have your work visa, you aren't supposed to take jobs from anywhere outside your one place of employment. Not many people follow this one.. I'd say 90% of the people I know here are doing illegal work in some way or other; and making $40/hour doing so. I don't feel its particularly high risk, though every year or two you read an article about a crack down where they deport about 10 illegally working foreigners. I've never heard of anyone getting busted (outside of newspaper articles).
  7. I live in Seoul, South Korea and I teach English.. I just got back here about 6-7 weeks ago and this is my 2nd time around (after being here for a year, Sept 2005-2006). Hmm, what to say.. My first year, I signed a contract while I was still in Canada and worked at a big corporate english academy for kids. It worked out fine and I made a bunch of dough, but everyone around me seemed to be making WAYYYYYY more money by taking slightly more shady routes. 2nd time around I returned to Korea on a tourist visa (Canadians can be in Korea for up to 6 months on a tourist visa). I found a job once I got here. I'd recommend going this route WAYYY more if you can save up the start-up cash on your own while still in Canada. You'll be much better off as far as 1) working conditions and 2) making piles more money. As opposed to signing on while still in Canada. Also I recommend Korea if the objective is make cash. I'd prefer to be in Japan but the cost of living is so much higher that you don't save nearly as much. The pay is a bit lower in Japan too I think, generally speaking. Taiwan would be good too. You can teach in places further south (ie. Thailand, Vietnam) and have a great time but not really make much money. Enough to get by basically. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask!
