Mina-san, if somebody interrupted your date to ask you for an autograph what would you do?

リスナーのみなさん
きょうのおにぎりおうじのはなしはどうでしたか 
ぼくはオーストラリアで柔道をしたことがあります。それがはじめてでした 
柔道をしたことがある人はいますか。
How was the Onigiri Prince story?
I have done judo in Australia(not in Japan) It was my first time.
Is there anyone who have done judo before?

I’d sign it of course. It may have interrupted my date which would be a minor inconvenience but to the fan it would really brighten their day.

I mentioned Chimpanzee Ai in the lesson. Ai is very smart. She unlocked the cage and escaped with her boyfriend ”Ayumu”. When she left the cage she also unlocked the cage for orangutan next door.

Kanji etymology can be such great fun. You mean when you walk into somebody’s house and say お邪魔します you’re really saying “I am about to do a wicked devil thing”
Yes, I can see how that is VERRRRY polite!

I guess that as a celebrity asked for an autograph, you should definitely sign. This is part of your job. If you don’t want to interact with the public, then you try to maintain a low profile, or keep to places where few people visit.
This doesn’t mean that people should follow your every move and make your life a living hell either…
AndamanIslanderさん, love the “I am about to do a wicked devil thing” !

I did a few judo classes when I was about 8-9 I think, but that was like 14 years ago so I don’t really remember anything about it
