tgif: Credit Crunch hits Japan

[Guest guest]

In the last 7 days several banks have experienced

problems. The Origami

Bank

has folded.

The

Sumo Bank has gone belly up and the Bonsai Bank announced plans to cut

back

some of its branches.

Yesterday,

it was announced that the Karaoke Bank is up for sale and will

likely

go for a song, while today shares in the Kamikaze Bank were suspended

after

they nose-dived.

Although

the Samurai Bank is soldiering on following sharp cutbacks, the

Ninja

Bank is reported to have taken a hit, but they remain in the black.

Furthermore,

500 staff at the Karate Bank got the chop and analysts report

that

there is something fishy going on at the Sushi Bank where it is feared

that

staff may get a raw deal.
