A 58-years old woman was found in the upper compartment of a closet, after living there for more than a year.
<p>What&#8217;s strange in this story is that the man living in the house, in the southern city of Fukuoka, only got suspicious when he noticed food disappears from his kitchen. He installed security cameras that transmitted images from the house straight to his mobile phone, and noticed a surprising movement after a couple of days. </p>
<p><span id="more-193"></span></p>
<p>Speedy policemen that arrived at the house, hoping to catch a burglar, were surprised to find the front door locked and the windows shuttered. Only after a thorough search around, the cops found the woman lying on a small mattress in the closet. She explained the cops that she is homeless and got into the house when it noticed it was unlocked.
<p>The woman admitted to even take showers in the house. It&#8217;s weird to see someone that hasn&#8217;t noticed such a permanent guest for such a long time. Maybe he was <a href="http://www.japanite.com/2008/05/25/the-deadly-80-hours-workweek-in-japan/">working deadly overtime?</a>

<p>Strange Maid cafes are out, mom serving you cake &#8211; in. It appears that geeks in Japan are bored with the Anima and Manga cafes all around them, and quick entrepreneurs cashing on this desire.</p>
<p>The new Mother cafe in Osaka is offering it&#8217;s customers &#8220;mom-like&#8221; experience from the waitresses. The are greeted in friendly tones, can feed you, listen to your troubles. Even though that some of the &#8220;mom&#8217;s&#8221; are 19 years old only, the owner of the place promises that they &#8220;look older than their age&#8221; and capable of &#8220;understating people worries&#8221;.</p>
<p>We will not be surprised if will see the adult version of this soon. Where Otaku (Japanese geeks) will get spanked if they will not finish their meal.</p>
