Yeah, I said it — EAT ME. Sometimes, booking 2 weeks in advance is a good thing and allows me to snag a low fare. However, the flip side is booking 2 weeks in advance not knowing that you will be having a 4:30 pm show…..and a 5:55 pm return flight. After several phone calls …

I want to start of by saying thank you to everyone for the input and response to last week’s Q & A. I appreciate everyone taking the time to check it out and to send in their thoughts. As I keep getting more questions, I’ll throw them up here. Now, on to week 17… I …

So, last week my travel was delayed due to the high winds and caused me to stay in LA a day. Well, this week I was delayed again, but only for a hour. I eventually got on the plane…only to get right off 20 minutes later due to “bad fuel lines”. The captain himself stood …

So I discovered last week that there was an interactive even going on where you could hold an actual Oscar statuette. It was running until 5:00 Saturday afternoon and I had decided to catch a 10:30 am standby flight and attend the interactive event with some friends from Second City. So I get up early, …

Those of you that know me know that I tend to “Forrest Gump” my way into certain situations. For those of you that don’t know me so well, I tend to find myself in the right place at the right time more often than not and it’s has lead to some cool stuff. This week …

While getting ready to leave yesterday, my driver asked if I wanted her to drive me to the airport and pick me up tonight, but I said no because she has to get up early tomorrow and go to Corpus Christi for work. “But how will I ever get any mentions if I don’t drive …

Have you ever said to yourself, “Man I wish I had more hours in a day”? Have you ever looked at your watch and realized you’ve been awake for over 24 hours and realized how completely asinine that notion is? That was Saturday for me, but with the caveat that I was working on a …

Two quick notes before I go on: – I’ve setup the site so you can now email and print individual posts from the site. I’m trying to get ahead of the curve even though nobody has yet to request it, and I’m not sure anybody without the last name Bentley reads this stuff. ;) – …

Having a driver is one of the finer things in life. Everybody should have one…Is it just me or is “CBS Eye on American” the best in-flight entertainment out there?….Can you name an airline with a better $5 Turkey Chibatta sandwich? I can’t…Knocked out “Who’s Your Caddy” by Sports Illustrated Writer Rick Reilly. If only …

The word irony is defined as “an outcome of events contrary to what was, or might have been, expected”. A practical example of this would be my 5:05 pm flight being delayed until 8:30 pm because of an overheated fan.

I told you what the title was going to be so no busting my chops…. Level 1 is in the books. When I started this 8 weeks ago I wondered what I had gotten myself into. I still wonder that now, but with a sense of excitement to see where I end up with this …

…and what does that equal? You got it, I found a way to back into this number in the title dilemma. I am going to go ahead and tell you right now, next week’s entry will be titled “8 is enough”. It has a couple of meanings since it’s the end of Level 1 at …

First off, I realized weeks ago that I’ve painted myself into a corner with the whole “using the number in the title” thing, and quite frankly at some point I’m going to have to cry uncle and stop trying. Sure 1-13 should be easy, but I’ve got nothing for 14, not many people are going …
