Let squeaking commence

Raquek_welch_2 Thanks to the committed, but anonymous, reader of Asia Exile who sent the following Morning Musume video clip link which, if anything, surpasses the first.

It shows the gruesome toothsomes featured in my last post in confrontation with a large, angry, neo-dinosaur. (Is it a Komodo dragon?)

There are even subtitles.

Click here. And click on the picture for an enlarged Raquel Welch.

Somebody I know with a Japanese wife said that the fans of Morning Musume were, in her words, most "Dirty old Men".
They've been running this clip on the Daily Show/Colbert Report for a few months - sometimes identifying it as from a royal family wedding - think it was Princess Sayoko's! Thanks for identifying it - I think it's some kind of monitor lizard - Komodo Dragons have a venomous bite that also carries a lot of bacteria into the wound that kill prey that manage to escape from their jaws.
If you'd like to save videos from youtube and other places, this link http://www.tian.cc/2006/04/howto-save-videos-from-youtube-updated.html
has a lot of useful information!
