airplane orchestra. picture this, you're stuck on a beijing runway going on hour three of a flight delay. and all of a sudden, an orchestra that just happens to be on the flight begins playing music to pass the time. it sounds wonderful if you're a lover of string quartets and maybe not so great if you' been on a runway for three hours and want peace and quiet. no daddy. if you watched this year's super bowl, you probably remember this go daddy ad. here's a nerd legend smooching a supermodel. he may have let that brush with beauty go to his head. case in point, i'm in a scene here trying to replicate his famous tv moment with aless than willing perities pant, "twilight" actress. maybe he needs to stick to supermodels.
