Where it works seems OK to me, but deciding to pop on over to Fort Worth from Dallas on a bicycle to pick up some cheesy bread? See you in 2 days, or just join the armadillo club decorating the edge of the road.

There is a VBA macro for everything.

Imagine real-life Walken at the grocery store checkout, talking with the cashier and putting items from his cart onto the belt.

Almost like different makers make different decisions. 

There are 4 other normal access doors and either 2 or 4 overwing exits. Boeing never opens this door/plug to do anything to the interior. These doors/plugs aren’t on any other 737 MAX and those interiors have been installed just fine. Recall that even with the bolts removed that door/plug is hinged at the bottom so…

Those engineers mainly came on all at the same time during the rapid expansion phase. The only alternative would have been firing them piecemeal and continuing to chew people up to keep the corporation fresh. Like on the first day you roll a 20 sided die and the number that comes up is how many years they let you work…

I agree. The people who put passengers on a plane that was known to have a software problem and failed to drill the pilots until compensating for it was second nature should be in jail. But that is the government of Ethiopia we are talking about, the owners and operators of that flight.

Japan can have high speed passenger rail because most of the overland freight in Japan goes by truck and the rest is on ships. In the US, due to the vast size difference, a lot of overland freight goes on freight trains and passenger trains are not compatible with heavy freight usage.

I think this is the difference between “theft” and “conversion.”

The director is also not her boss. If directors were the boss they could fire people. The only thing a director is able to do is control who is or is not on the set, mostly. If the director decides she was not to be on the set it is the producer’s decision to continue to pay them, fire them, or to tell the director to…

Baldwin as a person was negligent with a firearm. Being on a movie set doesn’t absolve a person from blame for damages, injuries, or deaths due to negligence. He was handed an actual, operational gun, a weapon he wanted on the set for authenticity to show in his movie how deadly guns are and then he treated it…

“could have been put toward” was doing the work of indicating that more would be required, but the value elsewhere would be better than a measly 2.5% increase in capacity.  

Root for the camera crew who quit over safety concerns.

If she wasn’t acting as armorer it’s worse.  That would be extreme negligence on her part to hand over a gun to anyone. 

50 transaction? More than 10x the cars I’ve ever bought. Do you ever have to fill them with gas or just trade in the empties?

In rural areas are small towns and small populations. Once I was sent to a rural operation for my company. Had bought a used film camera on Sunday, so wanted to see that it worked properly. Monday evening I went to a small park in the town. No one else was there. Took a few photos to get developed the next day and…

“Losing” the keys for an hour on their wanting to check a “trade-in” is high on that list.

When I was a kid I recall that planes lined up at that beautiful arched section that faces the runways, the one with all the cast iron work. The waiting area had small TVs on some of the chairs. All gone now; just an empty area to pass through. 

To be fair, Denver was a pretty bad airport for a long time. Locals hated it.
