Insanity is relative. It depends on who has who locked in what cage.

Not everyone uses twitter so please excuse me for Not everyone uses twitter so please excuse me for posting this instead of... well can’t fly these days. Please think about the root of the anger.  This explains just one small tiny tip of a ginormous iceberg of generations of deliberate set ups. Yes, like Coach Carter said, “they expect you to fail!” And indeed we all need to pull ourselves up. But think of the social contract. Greatness is achieved in the agency of others. Let’s do our part, and examine our own racial biases, however difficult or embarrassing or vulnerable that make us feel. We being victims of racial biases does not exempt us from having biases towards others, and we have to dive into the details and be sympathetic.

Heading back to Taiwan with my mind towards the fu Heading back to Taiwan with my mind towards the future.  I don’t want HK to “go back to her old glories”. I wish her people and leadership the wisdom to move past hate, and remember that progress only comes from dialogues.  Democracy is about dialogue, not the spread of hate and divisive rhetorics.  If you feel enraged, no matter which side you are on, turn off Facebook, engage someone holding a different opinion, and seek to understand, not to convince.  The world can always use more kindness.

Red eye flight and early morning meeting in HK. S Red eye flight and early morning meeting in HK.  She’s still beautiful and dare I say, hopeful.  Be positive, and be kind to others.  Onward and upward!

Oh and flight review... no more South Park on CX/KA IFE, that’s too bad but the factual/documentary section was super sparse and that sucks :(. Oh and the food, the none-existent meal is disappointing.  But I guess it’s cost-cutting time and few people eat on this red eye flight.  Having said that the snack was quite tasty so it’s not all bad.

Back to Taiwan! The last leg of the flight I got Back to Taiwan!

The last leg of the flight I got to experience the newly updated, 10 abreast economy seating on the 777.  That’s a 3-4-3 layout and it is definitely cramped!  I’m quite disappointed CX is going this route but I also understand the economic reasoning.  Still, it takes away from the premium image.  The updated seat back entertainment and table/storage combo was good though.  I definitely recommend the window seats for this because you get a bit more elbow room on one side.  Unless you are super tall.

A really retro flight back to Beijing! After miss A really retro flight back to Beijing!  After missing out on the A359 from Air China last time, this time I picked the classic 747-400.  Of course when we were pushing back there she is, the A359 I missed last time.  Being the old 747 (she’s got 25 years on her frame) and being Air China, the cabin temperature is once again set to somewhere between smouldering heat and stuffy sauna.

By the way, the Beijing football club stars are on the same flight.  Apparently they lost two straight so they don’t get to fly business.
