    after holding and holding I had to leave the Theatre and go to the P**sroom, about 20 Minutes from the end. Small bladder, its in the family… King Jester

    Could be a prostate problem too… ๐Ÿ˜€ ๐Ÿ˜€

    Sorry, just joking… This kind of p*ss-problem happened with me before. :p

    Regarding the movie: good. One has to take into account the heavy burden of putting such a classic into cinema format. It was certain many people would complain it was not accurate, but IMHO the essence was there. Even Mr. Pitt was OK. Deleting those God/Godess intrigues was perfect.

    But the best scene was with the Trojan King talking to Achilles about Hector. That irish / briton guy is really good (Peter O’Toole).

    Nice, mate, thanks!

    Does anyone know which European missile is that with Adder-style grid fins?

    Photoshop. Shades are inverted: light comes from the left in the aircraft, and from the right in the background.

    I think the exchange of judgements and offenses about other countries is the main problem. Why must people always have to say country “X” has a “bad pyramid”, or country “Y” has “quantity of poverty”? If someone likes his country, great, but why tell bad things about some other country that is clearly seen as an enemy or whatever?

    I particularly like to have info about Russian and Chinese planes, mainly because Western fighters are discussed to death everywhere. If I turn my TV on, all aircraft programs will talk about F-22, F-16, F-117, etc.

    I think one should not open Russian / Chinese topics if that’s not what one wants. I myself always do that with many of them.

    Nice video, thanks!

    In the last scene of the TVC Flanker, one can clearly see a Brazilian flag painted near the cockpit. Question: was this TVC-equipped Flanker the one that visited Anapolis once? I thought it was a double-seater Su-30…

    I donยดt smoke and I think the cigarettes should cost more and more.

    As a vascular surgeon, who earns his life fixing bad things done by the habbit of smoking, I would certainly work less if people smoked less, but the society as a whole would benefit.

    In my country, cigarettes are not so expensive as in the UK (I talked to people who lived there, and many of them quit when living there, because of the price). Even so, problems with smuggling and false brands (brought from Paraguay) are increasing. ๐Ÿ™

    Here are some Pixies sites and the playlist, which is quite long and everything I wanna hear.

    Hmm. it’s pretty similar to our Curitiba gig – i.e. there are some differences in the order of the songs. Unfortunately, they didn’t play “La La Love you” here (I also missed “I Bleed”). I think the classic “Debaser” was the last one.

    One sad thing: it’s only one hour and a half, including the encore (“bis”, in my home language). ๐Ÿ™

    Does anyone of you know if Charlie Black says something to the crowd sometimes? The only thing I found I little disapointing was that he didn’t say a word. You know, you wait for so long, so long, and then they come and don’t say even “hi”? ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

    OTOH, I must admit that at least he didn’t try to be populist (like the ubiquitous “hello Rio” or “hello Brazil”), I mean, he showed some atitude.

    One of the the worst populist attempts was comitted by Jason Newsted, former Metallica bass player, in Sao Paulo 1991: he went to mike and said “gracias”! Come on my friend, you could at least learn which language is spoken in a certain country…

    Hello,everyone.My first post.
    I’m from the heart of communist China. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

    What does RIO and WSO mean?

    Welcome!

    RIO = radar intercept officer (e.g., the rear-seat on a Tomcat)

    WSO = weapons systems officer (e.g., the rear-seat on a F-15E)
