We are all the heroes and heroines of our own lives. Our love stories are amazingly romantic; our losses and betrayals and disappointments are gigantic in our own minds.
Anytime I fly anywhere, I think… well, this could be it. I try so hard not to think like that, but I just can’t get my head around the concept that this gigantic piece of machinery is 35,000 feet in the air, and I’m sitting in it.
I think it’s safe to say that mass shootings pose a gigantic threat to national security.

The single-hearted unity is the lifeblood of Juche Korea and the dynamic force for a leap forward, and we must invariably follow the road of self-reliance and self-development – this is the invaluable truth of the Juche revolution confirmed by our army’s and people’s gigantic struggle in 2016.

Directing is like looking at the stars on a cloudless night. You get away from all light sources, and you look up, and you see 50 points of light. And a minute later 100 and another minute later 1,000 and then 10,000. And then this swirling gigantic carpet above you, and somehow it all seems to connect.
Music is there for us to explore. To intentionally limit yourself to one, two, or three genres is limitation at its worst. Music is huge; it’s a gigantic history lesson, and if you are true music fan or a musician, you should explore it. It’s all right there in front of us.

Maybe that first, gigantic deficit the Reaganites piled up was an accident, just a combination of deluded ‘supply side’ tax cuts and a huge bag of good stuff for the Pentagon. But pretty quickly conservatives discovered that deficits, when done correctly, did something really cool: deficits defunded the Left.
Yes, America is gigantic, but a gigantic mistake.
I think it is safe to say, as a huge fan of music, that between 1967 and 1972 was the renaissance of rock music. That’s when all the forces combined together-the talent that was available and the freedom for the artists. The industry hadn’t become so gigantic.
Our houses, shops, and factories waste gigantic amounts of energy, often in the form of excess heat. How do we slash this waste? The answer is fairly simple: with a smart thermal water grid.

I still don’t understand why we need a gigantic airport sprawled across South East England.
