Water bottle manufacturers.

More water/liquids intake, more bathroom trips, guaranteed. Try finding a clean bathroom when you’re outside or in the middle of nowhere. I used to drink a lot of water after I stopped drinking soda pop a few years ago (for health reasons). After a lengthy hospital stay, I stopped doing that. Your body will tell you…

I watched the special edition of “Once Upon a Time in America” a couple of years ago. I think it was Marty Scorsese who had over many years tried to restore the gangster epic, looking for every bit of footage that was left on the cutting room floor. Oddly it included footage without audio that looked like really bad…

Safety with Chinese characteristics: Hey, we don’t charge extra for seatbelts.

Keeping the always-lustful women away from the always-horny men is the KSA’s biggest hypocritical bullshit. 

As if the actors actually need to fly for the show? I’m reminded of the interview in which Alfonso Cuaron, director of Gravity, was asked by some idiot entertainment reporter how was shooting in space.

What do you think about (Season 2, Episode 1) the flight attendant boarding a double-decer Airbus A380 and then landing on a single deck smaller plane? Did the editor not give a damn about continuity? I noticed.

30 million could have financed three more seasons of GLOW.

Yep. Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and Marvel show producers are salivating at this, and then LOL... This effectively makes Stranger Things the most expensive TV show ever, which is absurd. Some full-season TV shows don’t cost that much, per year. It ain’t worth it, Netflix.

That prototype F1 car, clearly copied, but still a beaut.

The article should mention the double-decker Airbus A-380, first used in 2007 and last made in 2021, a mere 14 years. I’d call that a failure. I have never been on one but see them all the time. My first flight on a 747 was in 1978. Air travel was so different then; it was something to look forward to. Nowadays, it’s…

Nah... it doesn’t even take in America. The pigs are fascists.

No idea that there was a film version from 1999. Is it any good?

IIRC Serkis had said in the past that it would be a motion-captured CGI movie version. It’s been at least three years since he expressed interest in doing this, and I thought it was already in production. I guess we’ll have to wait a bit longer. My son was just reading this for school. I hope he learned a lot from it.

I was in a public hospital for three-and-a-half weeks following a heart attack. Had to wear a mask 24/7, even when sleeping. Only took it off when eating, going to the bathroom or taking the occasional shower. I didn’t enjoy it, but we’re in a pandemic and this was when COVID was more lethal than its later variants.…

Red states will adopt that soon enough.

By the way, the easily transmissible Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 arrived in Hong Kong and Taiwan thanks to infected flight crews. So, not exactly a good thing at this point in time.

Yep. I doubt he paid for that fugly “thing”.

Where I live, Hong Kong, it’s a US$640 fine if you’re outdoors without a mask. And I see this continuing for the rest of 2022. And yes, cops do enforce it.

There, fixed it for ya.
