Man sells British fresh air to wealthy Chinese elite for £80 a jar

3 days ago - A businessman is raking in thousands of pounds selling
jars of
€˜fresh air to people in China for £80 each. Leo De Watts, 27,

sells air

cities
Shanghai and Beijing, where the wealthy elite pay a hefty sum for ...

I make a gag gift that I periodically send (mail) to friends around
the country:
"Genuine Arizona Air"
fancy label, picture of a saguaro, dead steer skull, etc. The fine
print directs them to put the can in an oven preheated to 350 degrees
for 5 minutes...

Lol.

The hope is that it reinforces their perception of it being
"way too hot", here -- and NOT visiting!


You must live in Tucson. The only way I want to ever go back to Tucson
is during the winter. I thought I was going to die when I was there for
a week. Northern Arizona is good, I've been there quite a few times.
North of phoenix, in the rainy season, waterfalls were beautiful.
Hundreds of people were under the water, getting soaked. It was an
unpaved stretch of road about 40 miles long going through canyons.


Phoenix is even worse. Now Chinese are starting daily direct flight from
Beijing to Calgary for Chinese tourists to Rockies (Banff, Lake Louise,
Jasper, etc.)
