I only wish it were so entertaining.

A short but interesting summary of the process behind creating airline meals. I’m can’t imagine this being such a manual process.
The video also claims that the low humidity and pressurized environment of an airplane cabin may dull taste buds, but not mine. I enjoy and tolerate airplane food from first to economy class - it’s a luxury just to get it anymore these days.
To liven up your weakened taste buds, bring your own spices, see what your next meal will look like, or find out the Zagat rating for your airline.

Prices At The Pump Stay The Same, No Matter What You Pay With
Posted by Anil Polat under Fuel , VideoLeave a Comment
Last week I posted on an ABC News story that reported drivers pay a few cents extra per gallon for gas when paying with a credit or debit card. I wanted to know if gas prices go up when you pay with a credit card, so I decided to found out - here’s what I found.
In both instances I was able to fill up the same amount of gas (3.677 gallons) for the same amount of $15. To be fair I went to two other gas stations to verify the results. I tried a similar experiment done by ABC News at a local Exxon station.

Do Gas Prices Go Up When You Pay By Credit Card?
Posted by Anil Polat under Car , Money , Video1 Comment
ABC News is reporting that swiping a credit card at the pump may instantly increase your per gallon cost of fuel by a few cents.
Right now I’m running an expierament at several gas stations and I’ll report my findings next week. I’d first like to ask if you’ve noticed any hidden gasoline charges at the pump?

Although the guy in the video is extremely annoying, there are some good tips in there if you can stomach the bad jokes.
You can take the principles discussed in the video further by following the 10 of essentials rule, and leaving behind useless items when traveling abroad. Also, don’t fall into the mindset that you must have a piece of checked-in luggage when in most cases you can stick to a single carry-on.

Good advice - not only for international travelers, but the German Coast Guard as well.
A NSFW (not safe for work) and not so important reason after the jump.

Matt Damon haters came out of the closet when it was thought he’d be the next Captain Kirk. Well now we know that heee’s not gooooing tobe the neeext Kirk. But Sarah Silverman is fucking him. Yes, she’s fucking Matt Damon (the video is slightly NSFW).
An homage to foXnoMad’s earlier days…still hate him?
