Wanting his friends to be really mind-blown when entering his $330 million superyacht, this Saudi billionaire installed a 45-foot-long floor-to-ceiling interactive video wall on both sides of the passageway to create a grand entrance.

The old ones knew:
“The Man and His Two Wives” is an Aesop fable about a middle-aged man who has two mistresses, one older and one younger, who both try to make him look their age:

Not that hard to install - I’ve worked on two of them in a local theatre. The mounting surface just needs to be very true (flat and smooth). We used engineered studs and cabinet grade plywood. Might be an issue on a boat if there is even a small amount of flexing happening under sail.
Still waiting for Bush to fulfill his promise that “the people that did this will hear from all of us soon!”
Just show me where the fishing poles and the beer cooler are.
I put a chocolate fountain in my 330 million dollar yacht. Also a nice wine rack, shag rug, and a couple of those frond-ie potted plants. Chicks dig that stuff.
Yes! And a built-in 8-Track player.
A “retreating” color beige with a subtle texture variation and some incidental gilded frou-frou sprinkled sparsely along the way; just enough to keep people from bumping into the wall while they are admiring the big long TV.

That could easily programmed.

Well ... er ... awkward ...”
Not a problem!
Moses is a prominent figure in the Quran, and is mentioned more than any other person in the text:

Book: The Quran says that Moses’s book is the Torah, or tawrat in Arabic.
Write a pitch to Waleed bin Ibrahim al Ibrahim about how cool and informative it would be...
Go for it!
Wow! That is most interesting!
Who does he think he is, Leonardo DiCaprio?
Lol! Dang autocorrect! Well, the layers would be fun to watch till they washed off I guess?
