The marketing guy who pitched this idea to GE needs to be given a raise, pronto!

Ready for the article about this William Seabrook fellow...

Sorry, but this is some seriously disturbing shit!

How can you find that strange? America never had an aristocracy or nobility. What purpose would castles have held - to house what court, pamper which prince? But Americans know how to build exquisite buildings and monuments, and they sure have historic landmarks they hold very near and dear to their hearts. And…

Not just any bridge, the Chain Bridge!

Until the day a pope performs a same-sex marriage ceremony within the Vatican walls, I won't even think of being impressed. Now THAT would be news worthy!

Ahhh so that sound effect is presented in its raw form. If so, that makes sense, thanks.

Is that the real soundbite or is that for giggles? I don't remember him sounding like a constipated 100 year old woman.

I don't know if I'd call them rubbish, but I tell you, the multitude of cliches in the last two books annoyed me greatly. Brown is turning his novels into outright movie scripts, and while I undoubtedly will continue to read his future novels, I will always anticipate a great deal of eye rolling.

Mental illness can be triggered by the perfect-storm of tragedies. Imagine one real personal tragedy, followed by another the next day, and the third a few hours later - it happens (I've seen it) and some people never come out the same as before, ever. So while your sentimental positive self-talk is admirable, it…

Never came across any of these.

Yes, because Before Christ (English) and Anno Domini (Latin: In the year of the lord) sound very intelligent. AC/DC (Italian) must just downright kill you!

Watched it as a double-feature (gosh, remember those?). $6 tickets to watch two brand new movies back-to-back. You know you're getting old when you can actually say "those were the days".

Well, I don't quite know if it's as much an "opinion" as it is an understanding - I don't hold any negative opinions about Japan, but the fact of the matter is that Japan deserves the scrutiny it gets from a historical perspective. I'm not talking about the stupid university students in China doing their emotional…

I went through a period of intense interest about the Sino-Japan Wars, and branching histories - and I can tell you that, at least the way it is described by Western historians, Japan really was ruthless and audacious on an unprecedented scale. To this very day, they do not officially teach their children about…

Take a loot at how long it took Europe to simmer down - and even now, there are problems. Although, mighty big for South Koreans to have an superiority complex, seeing that the whole thing is a puppet state held up by anything but Koreans. It's American, Canadian, etc blood that created South Korea, it it weren't…

I've just gotten around reading it a few months ago - and got to say, just from the pics posted in the article, I had a very different setting built up in my mind. I had the same issue with Harry Potter.

I am so damned fucking tired of PR statements and corporate lingo about people losing their jobs. "Restructuring", "better aligning", or in this case "Today, as friends, we say goodbye" - come on, his tweet sure doesn't sound like a friendly departure, and I'm sure there were no goodbyes involved, just - here's a…

I was wondering how the Americans will outdo Chris Hadfield. Imitation really is the greatest form of flattery! Chris must be proud.

It's nice how the guy stops and goes over to check on the driver in the SUV.
