Clearly that Gaga piece is just a promotional sheet for her remixed single "Transform This Way".

I say, "Booooooooooooo!", to the Japanese law regarding the Doraemon-themed Japanese bullet-train getting nixed. (Didn't they have Pikachu painted on 2-4 special airplanes? Yes, I believe they did!)
This ain't like the US Presidency races where everyone has to get "equal time", so we don't get faces of all the Presidential candidates plastered on Trains or Planes. (Although, that'd be quite the Nightmare scenario to think about with a sorta weird "Thomas the Tank Engine/Geoffery the Jet" sorta thing, wouldn't it?? :P )
Also, I just noticed in your tags, the pure japanese terms are not capatilized (besides the common terms and some that do not matter to the functioning of a proper universe, like loldwell).
I hope this does not indicate an anti-Japanese/subtle/underhanded statement for our fine fellows in Japan, hmm?

Oh, and you really need picks of that train.
