Porn Video filmed at Hong Kong Airport

A sixty minute porn film "Exposure Trip in Hong Kong" was filmed at Hong Kong's airport.

While authorities in Hong Kong seem to be shocked, the management at Chicago's O'Hare airport are obviously delighted with the idea, and have started offering 24-hour porn to weary travellers on a closed private network within the airport.

Now, my normal procedure in air travel is to arrive at the last possible moment. My goal is to be the second to last person on the flight. That way, I waste the least amount of time, but do not have to face the ire and scorn of my fellow passengers as being "the guy they were waiting for."

Another tip: If you check bags, don't worry about being a bit late to the gate. They plane can't take off until they've off-loaded your checked baggage from the plane's hold. This guarantees you another 20 minutes of duty-free shopping and lounge area snacking.

London Property Market -- An Absolute Bargain

Parking spaces in the Knightsbridge area of London (near Harrod's) are now fetching upwards of $185,000! (GBP USD ~1.87 at the moment so around 100,000 GBP!)

That is truly amazing. A parking space in that area costs more than most people's homes!

Haha. Makes you wonder what the day rate is for the space!

Compare the monthly parking rates for major U.S. metropolitan areas.

Haiku 1: Ode to Toxic Waste

Year end is approaching for Japanese Corporates, and despite Japan's growth last quarter being 7% (!), some obviously feel the need to show some more moolah on their income statements/balance sheets.

Salespeople at my bank have been trying to get me to sign off on some crazy derivative structures their Japanese clients want to do. Needless to say, their requests are not going to be granted until they move past the "lets give them free money and call it a good deal for us" stage.

This haiku is dedicated to them:

Approve dodgy structure
Smoke and mirrors, dirty tricks
Everything blows up, ouch

The Last (Secretary of Defense) Samurai

No wonder Tom Cruise didn't fare so well in the Oscar nominations.
Donald Rumsfeld is a mighty martial arts warrior.

POEnews reports:

You may have defeated my Southern Hook Palm technique, but can you defeat the 1000 styles of Rumsfeld?

Never knew Rummie was so limber.

All My Base Are Belong To You

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
