Family Ties ファミリー・タイズ


I think it is one of the funniest family comedy series with some entertaining and unusual character portrayals. This sitcom became the launching pad for Micheal J. Fox(マイケル・J・フォックス), who had several hit feature films during this series such as "Back To The Future(バック・トゥ・ザ・フューチャー)" series, and "The Secret Of My Success(摩天楼はバラ色に)". The series revolves around the Keaton family, with liberal parents Steven (a TV station manager) and Elyse (an architect). The couple have three children. A financially savvy, politically conservative son Alex, his shopaholic teenage sister Mallory, and a younger tomboy sister, Jennifer. Later Elyse gives birth to a fourth child, baby Andrew. You can't stop laughing at the mixture of great characters with witty dialogue. Despite the witty dialogues, this is a believable family, though.

Schnipp Schnapp シュニップシュナップ

I went to a beauty salon called "Schnipp Schnapp" to get my hair permed and cut today. It's in Sakura-Shinmachi, Setagaya-ku. "Schnipp Schnapp" means "Snip" in German. "Hot Pepper Shibuya" introduced this shop. The hair dressers are so friendly and very skillful, and they use only good-quality organic shampoos and rinses and conditioners. I have been a regular for five years. If you have a chance, please try to visit this shop. For farther information, please visit the website.
