Why are modern movies about (E@L has measured this) 70% car chases or motorcycle chases or people running over rooftop and down ever-narrowing alley chases? Maybe not Prometheus, but it has other faults.) OK, Bullitt was awesome in 1968 and the 11 year old E@L was wetting his pants as Steve McQueen’s Mustang flew down the hilly city streets of San Francisco. With, you know, serious themes and deep ideas and art, and hardly any car chases.

Skip to search - Accesskey = s. By expatatlarge on August 17, 2012. If you want to know where all this crap I type comes from —. I was polishing my, um, desk, no seriously I was. Obviously SuperMaid Joyce sees deteriorating timber as part of the charm of this place, and the fact that I haven’t noticed the state of the pseudo-oak desk-top for seven-odd (15) years speaks volumes about me too. Look at that keyboard! There’s an eyelash. On the ‘r’ key! Woah, that’s a lot of dusty stuff. Whence? Like having a...

Typical nomad, it’s his new word for ‘expat’. Is it merely because they are slimmer that he finds these girls so attractive? A person is beside him.
