Feel Good, Inc. That’s the 2007 version with Boss George, Dick and MC Rove in da haus!

Just watching some of these landings will put some hair on your chest.

A special farewell to Kai Tak. Among the things I regret in life is to not have flown into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak airport, and not having seen for myself those massive planes fly seemingly perilously close to the buildings of Kowloon — but at least this video does a pretty good job of illustrating the experience.

It’s a good thing he wasn’t investigating an abbatoir!

Journalist held hostage by bosses of Chinese toy factory. Even the police were kept at bay. Sometimes you get the feeling that today’s China today is quite feudal, with noblesse d’argent taking the place of high birth.
