Okay, this is seriously funny as hell and obviously it shows Google's sense of humor.
Go to Google Maps
http://maps.google.com/1) Click on "Get Directions"
2) Type in USA as your start point
3) Type in Japan as your destination
4) Go to the 31st Point on your route
And yes, I have tried this with other countries but can't find anything like the U.S. route to Japan. If you find something like this post it here!
