Greetings, readers!

Did you know you can gain a lot of insight about different cultures by reading travelling tips? And I am not referring simply to travelling tips for visiting other countries. No. I mean, tips for visiting your country. Assuming you are American, for example, there are three fascinating articles with tips for foreigners who visit America.

The first one provides insight about American culture. It is a list for Chinese who travel to America.

The next one I found remarkable, for its insight on both cultures, is a list for French travelling to America.

Finally, there is an article with tips for Russians travelling to America. I found this one amusing.

Greetings, readers! Joyous Thursday to you.

I recently encountered a remarkable article that discusses an interesting feat of engineering and car design. Somebody took a junk-heap car and, with the use of expanding foam and other supplies, sculpted it into a more sports-like car.

I do not know if this is structurally sound, or how well it would drive. But it looks like a very nice car.

Do you have any thoughts?

Greetings, readers!

I recently encountered an article that amused me. It was from the people who produce the “Honest Trailers.”

Apparently, they are notorious enough, that they are cited by the creators of Captain America- Winter Soldier as part of why that movie was as good as it was. For, you see, the producers thought through all the questions that the Honest Trailers usually raise about movies, and drilled down on their plot to eliminate the plot inconsistencies that could have caused problems. The net result is that Honest Trailers was part of a YouTube channel that was actually useful. That assumes, of course, that creating good movies is useful. (As an actress on my home world, I would argue that it is, but I digress.)
