Help Ken Tanaka Find His Parents
Recently I have become obsessed with Ken Tanaka and his youtube video posts. He is from Shimane Prefecture in Japan and is adopted. He has come back to the United States to find his real parents. Please help him find them. Perhaps you will be the one to find John and Linda Smith (his bio-parents). Enjoy the video. Please leave any comments below. Comments are good karma and you will be richly rewarded in a future life.
