I’m on a jet for two hours. Watching Meg with Jason Statham (you read that in his raspy voice didn’t you?) Ask me anything .

Edit: the levels of poor decision making in this film are amazing.

Would you rather fight 100 duck sized horses or one horse sized duck?

If money was no object, what would your next car purchase be?

you know, i like Jason Statham. I know he is kinda a B list actor, but I dont here him being in scandels, or drugs or anything. And I have yet to find one of his movies that I at least didnt find entertaining, even if I didnt outright like it.

A horse sized duck. I’m assuming hand weapons and we are not oiled  up for hand to hand combat.

Money isn’t no object?

This Talbot would work.

It starts with running unicorns through a juicer and gets worse from there.

Can’t argue with that.  He does his thing and makes a living. Kind of like the Rock.

Its the best coach seat and the strongest part of the plane.

The rock is a bit too much social media. I get he is a legitmate influencer, but I see him EVERYwhere and its getting a bit much.

statham sort of...idk, shows up, does his gig, gets paid and goes home. Nice, quite, reserved. I’d love to sit down and have lunch with the guy.

Ryan Reynolds as well, but he  is more fun i think.

To answer your question, no. Every time I see, hear, or speak Meg, I think of this:

I can’t be anymore serious. I haven’t even seen The Meg yet, but this is the first thing that always comes to mind. Hell, I went to a Dr. Tavel eyecare place and the lady at the counter was named Meg. Hilarity ensused.

But enough about me, where you flying to?

I think the Rock could do some big things, but he has his comfy gig. Can’t argue with him doing his thing. He does “manage his brand” more than really needed.

Reynolds and Chris Pratt would be a fun dinner and beers.

I think Snatch is the only movie I enjoy that Jason Statham is in, but it’s one of my favorite films.

I liked him a lot in the mechanic series and OG transporter. Safe was really good too IMO.

Death race was good beer and chips movie to watch. might need to do that tonight.

Every time you leave on  a jet plane, do you hear John Denver singing in your head, too?

You can also watch for the gremlin pulling on the sheet metal.

Do they always make company people fly with the Poors  or are did you sneak on with a different major?

My reaction is a little different. I always hear Peter say “Shut up Meg” in my head. The principle is the same.

I tend to hear Paradise City when headed home.

For domestic flights 3 hours and under we are supposed to fly coach. When flying international I can book first class 15 days out. I’ve had some great first class flights. Upper deck on a 747 was best.

I’ve only follow other carriers maybe 15-20 times in the last 20 years. Alaska a few of times, Singapore maybe twice for work when going between Singapore and Christchurch  and Star a few times in Asia.

Pilots refer to this small  regional jet as the lawn dart, what is it?

I think that is the ERJ, but F-16s had that name for a while as well.
