An assortment of stuff
.. prompted by starting to catch up on what's happened to other people in the past week.
Shanghai Knights - probably the silliest, most inaccurate portrayal of what Parliament is like in action since the Comic Strip's 'Strike'. Jackie can't do the really jaw-dropping stunts anymore, but the fight choreography is still wonderful.
Does anyone have a copy of The One and Only, a Carl Reiner movie starring Henry Winkler as a wrestler?
Why do companies expect people with fluent language skills to be cheap? It's a skill few people have. Is it because the people with languages tend to be either 'foreign' or women and thus exploitable?
