We travel to some hidden gem Greek islands, check out some US dangerous airport landings, freak out with a moronic story about United & leggings, get you some Alaska Airlines miles, learn about the US $100 bill, check out some awesome photos with flying, attack the pumpers while whining to make me feel better about myself so I can keep doing this for the equivalent of prison labor… etc.

Did you miss my awesome Sunday post? Amex Hilton Best Offers, Hunting Hackers, Bourdain Loser, Saving Is Hard
If you join Mileage Plan, the frequent flyer program of Alaska Airlines, by April 30, 2017 with THIS link and you complete a flight by September 30, 2017 you will earn 5,000 miles. Little bigly!
Five hidden-gem Greek Islands. I am not sure Zakynthos is hidden…but the rest sure are! Please go and spend some money, they need it!
I have had some links in the past about the most dangerous airports in the world. How about America’s most hair-rising airport landings instead? Telluride Regional Airport looks interesting.
This is cool. The security features of the US $100 bill.
This is a great read on personal finance. What is the antidote for stock market hysteria? “Informed apathy!”
Some great pictures here: The beauty of flight

The Amex new signup bonus with a new business may be up?
There is now a public link for the Marriott credit card offer for up to 107,500 points. Not in my links. This conversion thingie maybe is not in my blood…
I need to slow down here…not like there is a lot going on anyway. So…I set up a folder in Feedly with all the Ignore blogs 🙂
I found the posts about the United flight with the leggings completely ridiculous…Hey, I guess it takes a little attention off the usual rampant hideous credit card selling. And then I get bitched at for whatever reason…for trying to make it towards minimum wage….Getting old…all the way around 🙂
I swear, View From The Wing has written a post about Hang Up, Call Back about a hundred times by now zzzzzzz…
Son is very close to accepting a summer internship in Mountain View, CA. At last…I can burn some miles hooray!
There were some awesome NCAA March madness basketball games over the weekend. How about South Carolina hey?
And I leave you with this…

But what to put on the trophy?
TBBTheDude says
Leggings?
Anonymous says
That one made me laugh!!

Just checking in…
ScottCastle must be traveling 🙂
So sick of the United leggings story…so moronic, so out of ideas…tell them to STFU.
F/A Ramsey says
Diddo on legging non story, everyday tens of thousands of airline employees and their friends and family fly for free successfully, in exchange for agreeing to follow a simple dress code, which differs by class of travel and each individual airline. If you want to sit in first class, appropriate business casual attire is req., even for kids (shoes instead of sneakers, BFD). WTF is wrong with that? Nothing! F Social Media.
FYI…Y class employee free travel has a much more relaxed dress code. But, no hairy armpits exposed (tank tops on men).
Non story…F the big mouth celebrities and others chiming in.
F/A Ramsey says
ditto not diddo, now i feel like a dildo
ABC says
It’s time to show some solidarity with this lady and wear some leggings. Much more enjoyable than Vinh’s (milesperday) favorite traveling pants.
TBBTheDude says
I am with Ramsey on this one. Total non story blown up by moronic media and then moron bloggers falling low (again) to write some stupid crap about it because it…is hot. The Lucky One Credit Card at at Time even went on to an NBC afffiliate TV news program to talk about…leggings and an airline he scammed mucho dinero out of…Mommy Points started posting of her kids wearing leggings…WTF! Oh shit…wilEmily follow this up? Phuuuuuuuuuuuuucck!
Speaking about dildos, you won’t believe the story I have for next Sunday…Educating you all about what is important hehe
Better By Design says
Not just dress code, but also code of behavior. Like if entitled employees traveling for freeeeeeeee on non-rev tickets start getting pissed because they aren’t going to clear the standby list and are impolite… aggressive… rude… to the gate agents and other passengers… GUESS WHAT? That crap can flow back up the corporate pipes very quickly and cause privileges to be taken away.
It’s not that hard people! And traveling for freeeeeeeee… isn’t a right.
Anonymous says
Diddo LOL. George what are you not sick of? You do not like selling even though you do it. And you do not like more socially active posts either. What if your daughter was tossed from a flight for her leggings? This blog used to be smart criticism now it is just negative.
RKToledo says
Yeah George, why don’t you express your opinions anonymously, behind a keyboard, where nobody knows who you are!? How dare you stand up publicly and put your beliefs out there.
Where is the credibility in that? LOL! Internet Trolls make your Alexa rankings go higher.
TBBTheDude says
Hey troll…how about you being positive instead of being negative hey? And have the balls to type a name in the box…maybe Alan H. or something.
Total non-story. Out of so many important things in the world we have stupid media and bloggers talking on about leggings on a buddy pass.
I tell you what I am not sick of:
I am not sick of:
traveling for free
free miles and points (not yet… #developing)
March Madness
winning
TBBing (thanks to the reader who got the SPG card a few days ago, I am reenergized…help me stop whining hehe)
hummus
feta cheese
curry
my wife’s legs (without leggings)
scoring goals
I could go on but I have bills to pay…but still won’t pump my readers like the Titans so be thankful or GTFO
TBB
I am not angry, I am actually very calm
@RKToledo: You are right about trolls and Alexa. Well, actually I have not been in Alexa in years but…traffic explodes when trolls show up. Come on my #1 troll, are you okay? We all miss you #notreally
John says
3 things
-dont think just because these people put “names” in a box they aren’t anonymous
-Alexa is not accurate and has not been for years.
-Technically a troll is not a person who makes valid points. Is usually someone who is being mean or rude without any logic
These People ? says
include yourself as “THESE PEOPLE” we don’t know J O H N (real name, who knows who cares) or anyone else, just letters in a box, George is the exception
are “THESE PEOPLE” like “THOSE PEOPLE” ?
Person 1 says
^ perfect example of the negativity here. fake news. this comment section keeps getting more trolly. just like this blog. how can a blogger complain about trolls when his entire website is for trolling?
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Lol
This is free entertainment…
Bitching about trolling…while trolling! No wonder it is getting more trolling…smh
MileageUpdate says
Im real, I think. Jorge and I have met in person.
ScottCastle says
Oops. I overslept!
Nick @ Personal Finance Digest says
Darn it! ScottCastle beat me again!
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Hope
#heoversleeps!

Mrs. TBB with leggings tomorrow…
You won’t believe what happened next!
George Is King Of Trolls says
Trying to make sense of TBB. George trolling blogs for selling while he tries to sell is ok. Because his selling is ok and there selling is bad. George trolling blogs for blogging about things he doesn’t like is ok. But everyone who talks about George is a troll. George never is a troll and is always right. Ok got it now.
TBBTheDude says
there
George looks at WordPress “Page Views” and goes…High Five!
Thanks Troll
SB says
George I feel like there’s one or two days a month the trolls come out of their caves and onto TBB. It’s quite entertaining actually.
The last WM in my area ended multi trans MO. Fml
What are you talking about? says
saying the word troll is not the same as making sense. who is the troll. the blogger that trolls about other blogs every day? the same people like you who troll blogs in the comment section every day?
TBBTheDude says
If it wasn’t for trolls…I would have quit a long time ago
