9 DAYS (http://autos.sympatico.ca/automotive-news/5607/100-km-chinese-traffic-jam-enters-day-nine)

9 DAYS of just sitting there. In a car. Not moving. Its like a cross country affair, 9 days.

I doubt that they were sitting there for the entire duration, LOL. With a jam like that, you could probably get out of your car and wander around for a while without having to move your vehicle.

I could imagine some story illustrating the absurdity of modern life in which someone finds their future wife during a traffic jam like that, after which they have a whirlwind romance and marry ten days later...in the same traffic jam.

This reminds me of the second episode of Doctor who when he was with Martha.

it was set in New New York. I remember that episode, it was the first one I ever watched. I hated that episode compared to the others.

It is important story wise though. It sets the stage for the Master later on. (Also, shows that Captain Jack isn't truly immortal.)

Straight from wiki:
"Rose remarks on the Abzorbaloff's resemblance to the Slitheen — the Abzorbaloff states that he comes from Clom, the sister planet of the Slitheen homeworld Raxacoricofallapatorius. Clom was later mentioned in The Stolen Earth as one of the 27 stolen planets.

Nearing the end of his story, Elton wonders how long it will be before Rose and Jackie "pay the price" - for being with the Doctor - a reference to the "Army of Ghosts" and "Doomsday"."

Its important stuff. I hate Doctor lite episodes though, especiall Turn Left, fucking donna, I hated donna.

Best doctor lite episode: Blink.

Blink is just all round one of the best episodes. I couldn't sleep well for days after it thinking the angel's were going to get me. I haven't even been able to re-watch it, it was so good.

Also, Am I the only one pissed that they haven't brought Captain Jack back to doctor who? And why on earth are they waiting till next summer. And airing it on stars instead of the BBC at that!

I do miss Captain Jack from time to time. I hate this next summer thing, I'll be old by then. I always watch it online though.

Holy shit. Brilliant hijacking.

Oh, yeah. You are farther down the path to oldom than I am. I still got a good 11 months. ^_^

But that doesn't mean you can't still adore Captain Jack.

Oh hey, captain jack hasn't met the new doctor! how will he recognize him?

yes, I fear being 20. Two decades. Its like my life will be over.

Traffic jams suck.

Don't worry, you'll only be old till the first of July. Once I am twenty, old is 30.

EDIT: And Captain Jack will hear the Tardis again, or they'll just bump into each other like David did with Sarah Jane.

This is on to 10 days now, I stumbled across another article where it said that noodles were being sold beside the streets for an extremely inflated price. This now involves economic factor and is thus no longer chit chat :)
