massage places are a dime a dozen in asia not to be rude and please excuse me but i do not know how else to say it. the only massage places that make any real money are fronts for prostitution unless it is in a high end place like KLCC in Malaysia or something
2 :
Japan would be better because there are more legit resorts and spas. Most "spas" in Korea are whore houses. Barbershops too.
3 :
There are a lot of legit massage opportunities in Japan. Korea and other Asian locales, more typically front for prostitution. Most Japanese Men would favor American or Japanese women as masseuses. There is a strong national tradition of visits to an Onsen for relaxation and massage. You'd need to speak Japanese to do well in this endeavor. Astrobuf

Do You Think Cho Was Used By His Parents As A Child Sex Slave In South Korea To Gain Money To Come To The U.S?

Do You Think Cho Was Used By His Parents As A Child Sex Slave In South Korea To Gain Money To Come To The U.S?
The family lived in South Korea in 2 room house. He lived there until he was 8 years old. The grandmother said, he acted the same in South Korea even to his mother. Do you think he hated his mother for putting him out as a child sex slave to make enough money to get to the United States?

Wait a minute! Why is the WWE supposedly on the era of PG?

Wait a minute! Why is the WWE supposedly on the era of PG?
After watching: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGT4n57Wafs & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kr_OijkXn7E&feature=related At first I was like yeah this sucks, the WWE used to be better before the era of PG. But once you think about it. The WWE is not even in the era of PG. It's just in the era of boring storylines and boredom wrestling with sucky wrestlers. Okay, maybe not too much like that but it is a bit lame with SOME "superstars" and some stuff it has. But in reality there is still sledgehammers being used (when Triple H is around). There is still chairs being used. There is still Elimination Chambers every year. There is still Money In The Bank matches every year as well. Whenever Mick Foley comes visit he brings his barbed wire bat. There is still real blood. All of this can be traced to violence! So what in the world makes the WWE so PG!? I get it. Before it had way better superstars and awesome storylines. But if you think about it the violence never changed.

The more mature fanbase has moved on to UFC. The WWE is smartly marketing to the younger demographic, and as they age, the product will become edgier. Same thing as how the 80s/early 90s was very cartoony and corny, then the product became the "Attitude Era".
2 :
Actually, if WWE were in the supposed PG era, we would be getting quality programming. Shocked? You should be. Many people are blind to the fact that WWE was PG long before 2009. During the debut of SmackDown, and throughout most of the Ruthless Aggression Era, SmackDown was a PG rated show. PG: D(drugs) L (language) V (violence). How SmackDown was PG at the time, and PG-14/M during 2004-2009 I'll never know. That was the SD with Stone Cold, The Undertaker, HHH, The Rock, and it was a PG rated program. Sure, Undertaker stopped sacrificing people and kidnapping people, but what did The Rock and Austin do that was so much more different from the Attitude Era? Rock & Austin were still the same Rock & Austin from the Attitude Era, but why was SmackDown a PG rated program and RAW was PG-14+? In reality, the weapon shots have basically become extinct. For some time there have not been: Sledgehammer shots to the head Chair shots to the head (more recently) Barbed wire bats Sledgehammer shots to a downed opponent In the Attitude Era, you wouldn't be shocked or go "OMG! Holy...." to any of these moments, but nowadays they've been removed for safety conditions. Triple H as a face doesn't use weapons well. Why? Because heels can do *anything* with weapons, theoretically. A face is limited to what holds they can use, what weapons they use and the types of weapon shots they can use. Why is this? So they don't seem like a dirty wrestler. What tactic seems more like a heel? --Con-chair-to to an unconscious opponent --A chair shot to a standing opponent Of course, the first option, whereas the latter can be used by both, but a face would seldom use a con-chair-to. PG programming of today is marketed towards kids, therefore they limit the future superstars (Cena, Orton, etc) movesets so little kids can easily remember. Kids most likely don't remember the names, but for Cena they'll remember his common moveset from every match. They'll be talking with a friend, maybe who likes WWE, if so, say, "John Cena does the Attitude Adjustment, the 5 knuckle shuffle, the shoulder hit, the STF and a clothesline". I'm talking about a young kid, say, 7. The most common Cena moves and kids will remember them, and when they see the moves, they will know what moves he's doing. In the PG DLV SmackDown era, it wasn't aimed at kids, but there was something different that made it border PG DLV - PG 14. Possibly due to the lower ratings, or it had "comedic" feuds and was more about the wrestling (it had all the cruiserweights on it, etc). I'm going for the latter, and RAW was all about the drama, and the feuds, SD was the wrestling and comedic angles, not the serious hate angles.
3 :
I agree with everything The Big Red Lord of Darkness said above me, although to say that most children won't remember the names of wrestling moves is a wee bit patronising. For instance; when I was 8 years old I knew the name of every suplex, every throw, every powerbomb, every armlock, every leglock, every slam, every chokehold and pretty much every gimmick maneuver in existance. Then again, I did have (and I've still got) Asperger's Syndrome at the time, and Wrestling was pretty much my primary interest and thus I became fairly obsessive about it.

How much can I get for my Kenwood reciever?

How much can I get for my Kenwood reciever?
I have a 14 year old Kenwood reciever. The model # is KR-A4040, and it's a 1992 model. it has a digital AM/FM tuner, and 4 inputs for a Cassette deck, CD player, a turntable, and also has a video input for a TV or something. it also has outputs for 4 speakers. it's an awesome reciever that's in absolutely mint condition, and has never been handled roughly, and really pumps out the sound. The reason why I wanna sell it is because I need some money, and I was thinking of just selling my Kenwood if i can get enough money for it, and buying a more vintage, cheaper reciever for a much lower price. So how much could I get for my Kenwood? I wanna sell it for a high enough price to make a diecent prophet, but not so high that people are gonna think that I'm ripping them off.

Normally, you wouldn't get nearly enough. but you can make a decent profit off of ebay these days. Your set could retail for about 40 Dollars on there if i were to estimate.
2 :
Put it out on your front lawn and maybe a desperate tweeker would do you a favor and take it off your hands without a disposal fee.
3 :
The 4040 model has a 40 watts output so chances are you won't get to much for it, maybe 20 dollars. Most popular receivers now are 80 watts and greater. I had a Kenwood once , I liked it , good luck :))
