Well, then I guess he likes to cook indeed.

so I just had to find out for myself... Hey, it's Sat. and I have nothing else to do. :

Who/What is Domo-kun?
Domo-kun is a small brown open-mouthed monster hatched from an egg who lives with a wise old rabbit underground. He really, really likes TV and also enjoys rocking out to Guitar Wolf. Domo-kun is the mascot of NHK's BS2 (a satellite channel; he also appears on BS1). NHK has been producing a series of Domo-kun stop-motion vignettes that exude personal charm and warmth. There is also a wide variety of Domo-kun-related merchandise available, some of which is difficult/impossible to find in the US.
"Domo" in this case appears to mean more of something (usually to stress "thank you," "excuse me," etc), implying increased politeness. "kun" is used as "Mr." or "Ms." for "younger people or colleagues". He acquired his name in the second episode, when Usajii turns on the TV for him and an announcer says "Domo konnichiwa" ("very much hello").
I've received email from a member of the US Air Force who is stationed in Japan and this person indicates that "Domo" is used "everywhere" in Japan as "thanks." I've also read someone's opinion that "Domo" in this case means "ferocious," but the Random House Japanese/English dictionary doesn't support this at all (the "domo" meaning "ferocious" has two long "o"s, the "domo" in Domokun only has one).
According to NHK, Domo-kun is recognized by 90% of Japanese schoolchildren.
The egg probably originates from the egg-shaped rings of the NHK logo (made eggy in 1995).


The following are the character descriptions as they appear at Domomode.

DOMO is a strange creature born from an egg. One day he fell into Usajii's house, the old rabbit likes TV. After that he began to love watching TV. He is gentle and strong. When he is in a bad mood, he breaks wind.
Favorite food: Seasoned beef with potatoes
Disliked food: Apple (There seems a deep mystery in his DNA)
Favorite talent: MAX and The guitar wolf


​

I am guessing that "bad mood" is really something like "distressed/nervous," as evidenced by the episode in which he accidentally meets up with Ta-chan, sweats a little, and lets fly.

Usajii has been living in a cave for 70 years. He loves TV and astringent tea. When he was young, he often traveled with his sweet heart, but now he is completely retired. Favorite food: Kinds of carrot
Disliked food: A trivial thing
Favorite talent: Hijiri Kojima


​

"Usagi" (rabbit) + "Oyaji" (older man) ~= Usajii!

Shinobu is a strong-minded mother. Morio is a mischievous child. They are hanger-on of Usajii's cave. Favorite food: The thing of a season (Shinibu)
Spaghetti Neapolitan (Morio)
Disliked food: Alcohol (Shinibu - She drinks alcohol in large amounts in fact.)
Mushroom (Morio)
Favorite talent: Brad Pitt (Shinibu)
Matsui (Morio)


​

"Shinobu" means "endure."

Ta-chan is a weasel girl. She is seventeen years old. She moved near Usajii's cave this spring. She dreams to be a stylist or model in Tokyo. She always tries to get information from a mobile phone, TV, or magazine. She is overly friendly, but is lonley somehow. She always adds "chi" to the end of a conversation, but she doesn't know it. She doesn't like the country-side.

Thank you WG. Not that I had an ounce of guilt over it anyway, but it's nice to see what the hubbub is about.

BigDFan5 seems to think they taste like chicken.

More threads about Cowboys player making news!!! A Domokun needs to die so children somewhere can have some chicken.

They go great with baked potatoes too.

 

[NMfan]

Doesn't Henson have to be medically cleared after an injury in NFLE in Florida or something before he can join the Cowboys? In his blog he mentioned something about rehab.

 

[fortdick]

Sheesh ya'll need to go out and play some pitch and catch. Ease a little tension.

I am sure you didn't mean that in a brokeback way!

 

[TwoSteppinJJ]

Whats wrong with long walks on the beach!?!? lol

 

[CactusCowboy]

He looked average against inferior players.......You guys just do not see the light, Drew is not our answer......

 

[Cochese]

He looked average against inferior players.......You guys just do not see the light, Drew is not our answer......

But, but, but, he was the only QB in the history of the NFLE to have to deal with inferior talent.:laugh2:

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Get's timing down with T.O.

I think HEnson is going to be throwing to Crayton, Copper, Skyler and the UFA WRs more than he is TO, but I agree with everything else

 

[maxsports]

He looked average against inferior players.......You guys just do not see the light, Drew is not our answer......

That is your opinion. Not everyone has to agree with you.I do not agree at all. I thought before the injury, he looked superior. I am on the fence about Henson, but what I do know is if by luck he is the answer, I am willing to give it a chance.

 

[Silverstar]

Henson will NEVER start as long as Bledsoe remains healthy in Dallas. To me, he simply went to Europe to get some game reps as a starting QB. I think Henson did a great job over there and now comes back with experience Romo doesn't have.

True that Romo doesn't have the NFLE experience but he does have a LOT more college experience than Henson did. I think it will be an interesting competition for the #2 job this year...this is nothing new though I said this all during the season last year.

Henson was struggling with the overhaul to his mechanics last year; he was thinking too much about that and not letting the game flow. Now he has a year of running the scout team and getting work in there plus his NFLE experience to get over that problem. Now he will just go out and play football as Romo was doing in TC last year. It will be a most interesting competition.

BTW if a Domokun has to die for us to get news about a player on the team then So Be It…They Die.

 

[ATurkishSeaOtter]

I think it was nice to see henson get some time playing as a starter if he had inferior talent or not. He hasn't started anywhere besides college and the thanksgiving game so only good things can come from his trip to europe. Thats means also being cut if he was horrible which I don't think he was.

 

[Silverstar]

True that Romo doesn't have the NFLE experience but he does have a LOT more college experience than Henson did.

Yeah, he had a lot of D2 experience from three years ago.

How many D2 QB's are actually starting in the NFL BTW?


Ummm....zero?

 

[Juke99]

He looked average against inferior players.......You guys just do not see the light, Drew is not our answer......

I don't agree.

If anything, he looked inconsistent but he did things that NO other QB on our roster could do..made some throws that were spectacular...threw on the run with great proficiency...

Fact is, he has physical skills that are superb.

He also looked "average" depending of inferior players. You seem to ingore that. His receivers stunk. His O Line was even worse.

He protected the ball. He showed good poise in the pocket and great mobility. He made some throws that showcased his talent.

Henson is right in the thick of things come training camp.
