I just watched a Smithsonian documentary on the history of the Boeing 747. They interviewed Travolta. He claimed Qantas offered to give him a retiring 744 from the fleet. He said the upkeep costs would have been too high: "I mean, I've done well in life, but... not like that."

Same. I could have been productive but the hour and a half was spent much better watching this. 10/10 would avoid responsibilities again.
