The HP headline is WRONG

This girl is Manx (Or, to be pc about it, Manks)

The House of Keys is NOT the House of Commons, and even Brit law recognizes that Mannin is NOT part of Britain

Hig nynn laa!

They still have British on their passports.

Actually, the passport cover says "British Isles: Isle of Man". The designation of
British Isles is geographic. For example, when writing to friends in Douglas, I address the envelope "Mannin/Isle of Mann". Somehow the mail manages to arrive

What's with Japanese men and their fascination about school uniforms and panties.
08:17 AM on 02/19/2010
Yeah, because as we all know, there aren't any American panty or Catholic school girl fetishists.

Here is an odd example of what's so magical about the internet - kid in tiny Island off England captures the imagination of segment of a population in another country on the other side of the planet. come on. That stuff never used to happen.

The world is a lot smaller than it used to be. I for one, think that's a good thing.

Yeah, except what the article isn't telling you is that she's primarily popular with middle-aged Japanese businessmen who want to have sex with her.
01:42 AM on 02/19/2010
Well...even middle aged businessmen need their fertility godesses.
08:22 AM on 02/19/2010
And you know this how, exactly?

She looks like she might be half Japanese herself. If she can exploit the opportunity these videos have given her then cool. Probably not much else to do on the Isle of Man anyway.
