Unfortunately my own memories of TWA aren't so fond. I flew them near their end in 1996. The fact that flight 800 had gone down one month earlier also meant they were short a 747. Ours went tech on the ramp and threw all of the intl' departures off schedule.

Terminal-side servi...

@spantherix

You and I must think similarly then. Either the prior owner(s) didn't have that much attachment to the company or perhaps the money was enough to overcome this.

If I ever had that kind of brand recognition/respect I would be very, very selective as to who I sold it to if at all. I...

Because PC games are (typically) cheaper for beginners. Publishers don

't have to pay the $10 console license fee for PC games.

Second, PC has better graphics, period. Both the Xbox 360 and PS3 are using de-tuned versions of video cards released 7 years ago. A decently powerful...

@dcordin

Because NBC is very protective of SNL. Anything more than a relatively short clip gets taken down pretty quickly.

SNL used to have their own YouTube channel, but it was taken down when NBC moved all their content to Hulu.

@matatan69

Not only ETOPS, there were no jet engine families at the time with sufficient thrust to lift a similarly-sized aircraft with only 2 engines.

So far as I know the first true wide body twin was the A-300, and that didn't fly for another decade after TriStar.

@YorkGod1

That's kind of a trademark of power metal. It's not as angry or gloomy as other metal sub-genres.

@VirgilB01

That's generally true of any restaurant. The one I worked for was self-insured even before the franchise buyout. Corporate took any kind of slip-up involving food safety very seriously for obvious reasons.

So far as I'm aware that is S.O.P for the industry. I'm not even aware of "...

@bluemini9

787 operators have the option of GE GENx or Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 power. Obviously ANA went with Roller power for their Dreamliners.

@NVTrucker

I can't see our current President flying commercial, no. However Executive One has been used before. Richard "Not a Crook" Nixon flew a United Airlines DC-10 from D.C. to Los Angeles in 1973. To date he is the only sitting President to do so.

@TheMusicdork94

If that were the case, Jefferson Airplane should sue Queen. Their song by the same name came out a full decade before Queen's.

@godverdegodverdomme

Two very good points. However you must admit that any contraption capable of slinging a Playstation in to orbit would be a sight to see in itself.

I would definitely get tickets to watch that happen.

@PietvdW

I've never seen any evidence that chimpanzees (or any other animal, for that matter" don't "like" humans simply for being human.

There are some animals that are fiercely territorial, so they would get up in arms over anyone violating their turf.

@ScorchRC62

Yes it did. United Airlines was incorporated in 1931.

I visited Ireland for 2 weeks back in 1999. Of all the places in Europe I have visited in my life, Counties Galway and Clare are two of my most fondly remembered.

One of these days, when I have the money, I will be going back.

@MRAK47ification

The Royal Navy does not have super carriers. The only force in the world with those is the U.S. Navy. The Soviets were building one, but it was scrapped when the USSR fell.

As for currency, the people of Kuwait and Bahrain would like a word with you. The Dinar from either cou...

@mikey0118

To add to your reasons:

The DC-10 is a fuel hog compared to newer designs. Cargo operators don't mind much because 40 year old planes can be bought dirt cheap. The added fuel cost is a still cheaper than buying/leasing a newer, more fuel efficient plane.

Older aircraft required a 3...

This commercial brings back memories. I had a Coppermine Pentium III 800mhz, with 640mb of RAM and a 32mb GeForce back in 1999.

It was just a *slight* improvement over the Pentium Classic machine that it replaced. I have fond memories of playing lots of Age of Empires II on that thing.

@Bugattis11395

So far as the North American market goes, Daewoo's are sold in the U.S. as Chevrolets. GM actually bought out Daewoo Motors in the early 2000's. Their proper name is GM Korea now.

I wouldn't have a clue if they Daewoo nameplate is still used in its home market or of those are "C...

@toyota420xp

Unless Toyota has changed the transmission for the last 2 generations of Corolla I don't see anything wrong with the 5 speed. I have one in my 2005 Corolla LE and it is one of the better manuals I have driven. It provides more than enough power to get going and keep up in traffic.

@CaptainArt777

That is correct. Flight crews are trained to never fly in to a thunderstorm. The primary cause of the crash of AA 1420 per the NTSB was the crew's decision to fly in to the storm rather than go around it. They were bumping up against duty time limits and wanted to land ASAP. The ...

@stonecoldpes6

The aircraft would have to be a 737. WestJet has an all-737 fleet.

@airobsessed

Closer to 30 years old, actually. I flew TWA in August of 1996. My flight from Austin to St. Luis was on a DC-9-15 from 1968, and the St. Luis - London flight was a 747-100 built in 1972.

@TheDirector1804

No, it's not. Had the author of this video posted the *whole* song, the artist identifies himself at the end. It IS Johnny Crass. He plugs he website at the end of the song.

I have to agree with most of the others on here. Nick's output from the 90's (arguably the late 80's too) is far superior to what they have now.

It kind of makes me feel old, yet sad, at the same time when the kids I used to work with had never heard of this show.

@boredfun91

It came on after Salute Your Shorts. I'm not entirely sure how (the human brain is weird that way) but I am certain of this.

@jasone7668

To each their own I suppose. Personally I don't understand the appeal of most Mexican beers. From what I have tried they tasted like carbonated nothing or were just flat out nasty.

I have yet to try any true German beers, so who knows. My tastes may just change.
