 safety[01]  - so this is my last post on flying hopefully for a while. since i have moved state-side i've had to make the move from good old ba to delta. their safety vid is the thing that surprised me the most and i thought was pretty well executed. i just checked to see if it's the kind of thing that might (1) be on youtube and (2) be the kind of thing people make the effort to watch...a resounding yes! apparently 1,778,773 people think so, and there i was thinking NOBODY would watch an airline safety video without being forced to do so on a plane. thinking about it that's probably a much higher watching verses concentration level than airlines achieve in context...

 holding pattern[01]  - this is a quick hello to any regulars out there, i've been stuck up in the air for the last few weeks and not really had the chance to post anything to keep you ticking over. i feel like i could smash out a great piece on 'life up in the air' but then that would just be retelling all of the george clooney truths...the one thing i will say is that any glamour that might of been associated with flying is long dead, sadly.

some advice when traveling domestically in the US: buy your own food and water before you board, take your own entertainment and have low expectations.

check out this video on cabin crew flying out from heathrow by steve schofield. maybe it's still cool in their eyes...

 american metal  - i took my first greyhound bus the other weekend. not the experience that the movies had lead me to believe as i wasn't in the lager silver bullet, but on the plus side it wasn't as 'crazy' as i was told it would be. the highlight was probably finding this in the carpark on one of the 'relief' breaks. i might have finally found a use for my 14mm lens and a start point for my car hunting.

 on the go  - the calorie count and fat breakdown of all of the ingredients on the receipt was probably more interesting but this was my first proper fast food on the go experience and the burger looks way tastier than an old receipt. i thought it made a nice contrast to the penny_le_cruz experience in south africa last year and was worth linking back to an older post, enjoy.
