<div>casey is taking japanese in highschool. never have i seen him even remotely interested in his classes. but japanese--wow--he calls me at work to tell me what he did in class! he's gone mad. he keeps babbling at me in japanese around the house. i am so happy to see how this class has captured his interest. they have a teaching assistant from japan. she showed them how to make miso soup and rice balls on friday. <br/> <br/>so today he insisted we go to the japanese grocery store and get bonito broth, nori for the rice and green tea ice cream. both were delicious--he made the rice balls himself (he never cooks. he has gone mad. you must believe me). and before we left the store, he snuck in a melon ice cream bar. and, you know it--pocky. i only had one strawberry one ( i am trying not to be a pocky pig). it was good.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://pocky.tribe.net">Pocky!</a> - 6 replies </div>

<div>Steel Partners emerges as biggest shareholder of Ezaki Glico <br/>(Kyodo) _ U.S. investment fund Steel Partners has emerged as the biggest shareholder of leading Japanese confectioner Ezaki Glico Co. with a 12.45 percent stake, according to a report submitted Friday by the fund to the Finance Ministry. <br/> <br/>The U.S. fund, known in Japan for its past hostile takeover bids in the country, said in its report to the ministry's Kanto Local Finance Bureau that it has raised its stake in Ezaki Glico for "pure investment." <br/> <br/>According to the report, Steel Partners acquired a 5.21 percent stake in Ezaki Glico in July and started to buy more shares in the Osaka-based company in late October. On Thursday, it purchased as many as 9 million more shares, bringing the total number of Ezaki Glico shares it holds to some 18 million. <br/> <br/>The U.S. fund became known among Japanese investors in 2003 by launching hostile takeover bids for two Japanese companies, Yushiro Chemical Industry Co. and fabric dyer-finisher Sotoh Co. <br/> <br/>http://asia.news.yahoo.com/051111/kyodo/d8dqb8k80.html</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://pocky.tribe.net">Pocky!</a> - 1 reply </div>

<div>Pocky <br/>or <br/>Cocky? <br/> <br/>what is a man to do when he craves the pocky but needs to feel cocky? <br/> <br/>a true mans man wouldn't be caught dead with a strawberry n'cream pocky stick jutting out of his overtly starched dress shirt? So the poor creature meanders through the aisles desperately aiming to avoid the pocky centre of the universe, where his inner femme might leak out onto the brightly and beautifully ordained packages of pocky. <br/> <br/>But every day he is drawn in by the addictive angelic presence of pocky and salivates lustily. His cart strewn with HAKAYA Beer (for men) and frozen beef hearts which he thaws in his arm pits before munching. And he neglects his need to lick his way down the sweet creamy hydrogenated oils into the thin flacky crust that is pocky. <br/> <br/>Pocky needs a high gloss black packaging so sharp it will cut you when you caress its edges. the pocky so hard and thrusting that you crunch your way down, so tough they alternate as drumsticks which the mans man can bang upon his engorged member. <br/> <br/>the manhood will be restored, the pocky streamlined, the world a safer place. <br/> <br/>did i mention I got four hours of sleep last night and I'm oh so gender conscious....ha ha <br/>I don't understand either <br/> <br/>enjoy <br/>by the way I only joined this tribe to write this blurb. <br/> <br/>so ladies lick on</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://pocky.tribe.net">Pocky!</a> - 4 replies </div>

<div>ok. i hate to admit how weak i am but this tribe triggered me. i was swimming around in my box (which is what sharkpups do all day) when i was accosted by visions of pocky.. <br/>so. on the way home i dropped in to the pocky dispensary. i was dazzled by the beauty of them. i took my hoard with me and checked out only to realize that i should drop in to the store across the street to get nag champa while in the neighbourhood. <br/>dingle. dingle. dingle. dangled the door chimes as i entered the establishment. i got my purchase and placed my bag of pockys on the counter. the salesgirl and i chatted about how nag champa is a stable and i had the sudden urge to proclaim "yes! it is! what more do you need? oh. and i have pocky too!" <br/>she gasped.....ooooo....i love pocky! she said. <br/>then she asks, "have you ever tried men's pocky?" <br/>i admitted that i had seen men's pocky but didn't dare buy them as i am a girl. <br/>we bonded. and yes. i offered her one. a coconut milk pocky. <br/>she was thrilled. she unwrapped the box. we each took one and clanged them together in the air (gently of course). then ate them. <br/>we smiled. <br/>"what a nice treat" she says "today is my 3rd month anniversary for quitting smoking. so i really deserve this!" <br/>i agreed. took my purchase and pockys and left. <br/>"down with tobacco companies!" she shouted as i walked out the door.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://pocky.tribe.net">Pocky!</a> - 7 replies </div>
