Yobaba I like this

Yobaba is a 57 year old married woman from Portland, Oregon, USA.
"Everyday, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can." - Dalai Lama

In the teenager-teeming Harajuku neighborhood here, Nissan Motor Co. designers have dreamed up a bubble of a car that drives sideways and comes equipped with a talking robot and another meant more for hanging out than getting places. They are trying to woo some of the world's toughest customers: young Japanese, who have fallen out of love with the automobile.

One could only hope (these kids have fallen out of love with automobile ownership); it is ridiculous for every person to own and drive a car in a country that has one of the best mass transit systems in the world.
