I wonder if the average hair mousse products have fire-retardant or fire-starting qualities? I recall Michael Jackson having his hair set on fire by the heat of the studio lights during a Coke commercial....
I remember, at the dawn of commuter movie watching, one poor fellow on a Bullet Train out of Tokyo whose personal DVD player was somehow playing the audio out of the speakers as well as his headphones. He was watching some porn flick wherein the heroine was lustily panting and squealing away. The Japanese on the train were, of course, much too polite to point this out to him so it fell to me, as the Western Barbarian, to get up and point this out to him. I caught his eye and pointed to my ears to allude to his problem. He thought I was intrigued by his device and was signalling for him to take the headphones off to ask him about the gizmo. He did so and started to demonstrate this latest triumph of Japanese miniaturisation but his face quickly fell as he noticed that he could still hear the audio. I bowed and withdrew.
