Watch
Death by China
it was released in 2012 so the debt we owe them is wrong, but still too much to wrap your head around.
It's not blaming one party or the other, so everyone can/will be equally outraged. |

I second Glitch's endorsement for Death By China. Excellent documentary.
Pay particular attention to the interview with the plywood manufacturer. |

For you music lovers here, I watched one on NetFlix recently called "Big Star: Nothing Can Hurt Me" which was a fascinating look at a Memphis band from the early 70's that I had honestly not heard of. They only put out 3 albums, but apparently all 3 are in the Rolling Stones top 500 albums of all time. All can be listened to in their entirety on youtube. Check it out. |

I'm all over those aviation videos. . . . there's something about flying that never gets old. Here's a video of a friend landing his new Falcon 50D (a birthday gift no less) in France.

Court, I've seen that view before!
First time I ever flew in a corporate jet was a Falcon 50, we had 2 of them. Flew from Mpls to Teterboro, next day from Teterboro to Kennedy then back to Mpls.
Interesting trip, I did find out the largest single object that will fit in the cargo bay of a 50. When we landed at Kennedy, we watched the Concord land and waited for our CEO to disembark. I figured we'd have to wait a bit for customs and such. Nope, he pulled up in a limo about 10 minutes later, hopped aboard and off we went.
Truthfully the only way to travel!
When we left MPLS I got to ride in the jump seat for take off and landing. Really cool. Not a perspective most get to see.
I wish I had someone to give me a 50 for my birthday!

One movie that I've been able to enjoy many times is In God's Hands. Surf movie, not religious. Unless you consider surfing a religion. It's about big wave surfers and their modern culture. It's got some big name, big wave surfers in it, but it's a story, not a documentary. It does have some very good surfing footage.
Anyone else seen it? I'm curious how this goes over with someone who's never been part of the surf culture.

On NETFLIX:
FOr Moto GP:
Faster
Fastest
Charged (electric bikes at Isle of Man, IIRC)
The Ultimate Wave Tahiti is a nice break if you need an HD reprieve from cabin fever. Also a good surf flick with some handy oceanography 101 lessons.
Truth in 24 II: Every Second Count-- Audi versus Peugeot at 2011 Le Mans
Into the White-- WWII story about a German and British flight crew who wind up at the same place after both of their aircraft go down.
Ain't In It For My Health: a story about Levon Helm (of "The Band" fame), if you're in to that sorta thing.
Everything or Nothing: The Untold Story of 007. Interesting history of the Bond series.
I started watching the Marley Africa Road Trip about Marley offspring riding Ducati Multistradas through , uhmm, Africa but it just isn't clicking with me. Made by Dave Alexanian (I think that's close to correct) of Long Way Round/Down 'fame'. Meh... |

Jake-
We watched that a couple weeks back and thought the same...."meh".
Hope Sochi gets its act together so the 2014 Olympics are safe for everyone over there and worth watching. |
