The Sake Association [of Japan] is sponsoring a lecture on the 21st of [March 08] about Sake Therapy, part of which includes information on how drinking sake helps your looks. The lecture will explain how, with over a hundred active ingredients, sake can help your skin, improve your circulation, slow down ageing and also help your hair grow back. It's 2,000 yen to hear everything you've ever wanted to hear about slugging back booze but attendance at the lecture is limited to women.

I don't know if sake can make a woman young and beautiful, but I can testify sake has the magical power to make an ordinarily shy person -- for example, a Korean engineering student at my nearby university -- stand up and sing "You Are My Sunshine" or ABBA's "Dancing Queen" in front of a hundred perfect strangers, who are also knocking back the juice and waiting their turn to belt out "I Am the Walrus" at the top of their lungs.
One night sake's magical power allowed me to stand up on Karaoke Night and regale a hundred mostly Asian strangers with "Lydia The Tattooed Lady":
... when her robe is unfurled
She will show you the world
If you'll stand up and tellerwhere
For a dime you can see
Kankakee or Paree
Or Washington Crossing the Delaware
Here is Grover Whelan
Unveilin the Trylon
Over on the West Coast
We have Treasure Island
Here's Nijinsky a-doin the Rhumba
Here's her Social Security Nhumba
I have often been misunderstood in my life, but never so profoundly misunderstood by so many confused-looking people at one time. Apparently Asians are very unfamiliar with this song, although it was available on the machine.
One Friday night I dined at this sushi joint, but the Karaoke was gone. I asked the occidental waitress what had happened, and she blushed and said that one night a patron, supercharged with much sake, had thrown a chair through the plate glass window. He was apparently outraged that after waiting 20 minutes for his turn to sing "You Are My Sunshine," somebody else was called to the microphone and sang it first.

Speaking from MUCH experience, I can verify that sake does make women young and beautiful... the more I drink, the younger and more beautiful they get
