I thought it was his wife on the telly but it must have been some relative or associate. I saw the daughter on television last year where she kept a stiff upper lip.

I took a trip once up around that area on the oneman densha. Bloody hell, did it snow. I went to the town called "Wakkanai" where I learned that they have gotten a bit tired of "wakanai" jokes. I rang some people on my phone and did some "wakanai" jokes: "where are you?" "wakanai! Ha ha ha!". Then I came home. Jesus did it snow.
