I find it difficult to take seriously a man who has such immense financial resources at his disposal, and who lives in the Greatest City on Earth, yet requires that his private aircraft be catered by KFC.
That having been said, I think we can all agree, regardless of our political leanings, that Donald Sutherland is Donald Sutherland.
I'm curious- does the phrase "three meter pole" exist with the same cultural significance in metric nations, has the SAE / American phrasing dominated, or is the concept or not touching things with long poles simply not recognized?

[QUOTE=hi_im_sean;1363237]Oh I love salt to an unhealthy degree, but have you ever had KFC?[/QUOTE
Funny thing, I just had KFC last night, first time in over 10 - 12 years.
One might think there is not that much to a piece of fried chicken, but Turks just have a way of ruining it regardless.
Soggy lumps of tasteless dry stuff, served with ketchup and mayo only.
A really sorry excuse to kill an innocent chicken.
One may take your statement of "soggy and dry" to be a contradictory and non-sensible statement. But I have sampled this conundrum, and it is terrible, and not sure how its possible. Almost like a hostess snowball.
My time in Germany and The Netherlands made a believer out of me with regard to the serving of mayonnaise with chips. I couldn't help but be taken back to that famous dialogue between Jules and Vincent in the car.
And likewise with ketchup, but specifically with curry ketchup. It's a flavor combination which we simply don't have here in the Americas, and one that I utterly fell in love with.
But the thing that really blew my mind was when I found "American Frietssaus" on sale at supermarkets.
Now, I get that the Germanic nations seem to have a fetish for American popular culture, and I kind of enjoy it when I'm there. But American-style frietsass? Nothing like that exists here, and we are a poorer culture for it. If such a thing were known of here, heck, World War 1 would never have happened in the first place. US President Wilson would have basically said "**** YOU, KING PETER I OF SERBIA, HOW DARE YOU JEOPARDIZE THE SUPPLY OF FRITESSAUS TO OUR COUNTRY? I WILL LITERALLY BOMB YOUR ENTIRE NATION INTO ASH, AND THEN TRACE VULGAR PICTURES INTO THE ASHES WITH MY DICK!"
And that would have been that. No Great Depression, no **** empire, no cold war, no 21'st century Jihad.
Yeah, José Perez is pretty much the equivalent of John Smith in the Latin world.
To be clear, it was not merely the name Joseph Perez, but the combination of a public figure named Joseph Perez in the Chicago area, that raised my eyebrow.
Also, sharing a full name with someone else is something with which I have literally no experience at all, so the idea is somewhat more interesting to me than it would be to our John Smith.
While at Best Buy getting a headunit installed in my new-to-me Ram, something I've never let someone else do, I noticed this ironic sign which made me happier than it should have.
Side note, Pioneer AVIC-4200NEX to have Google maps and other apps in dash is pretty sweet.
I was going to post a picture of me parking in the electric charge recharging spots at Trader Joes, but i was carrying groceries and didn't feel like taking a picture that badly.
