The hobby starts here…always: The Top 25 Credit Cards at Mile Nerd. Thank you US banks for keep on giving us miles and points. Deep down, this is why so many want to come to America 🙂
Newbies: In case you missed it…So You Want To Travel For Free Like Me? Are You Sure?
Time to register for the new Club Carlson promotion: Triple Points on all Stays + a 5K bonus for every Sunday and Monday stay, through June 30, 2017. If I can have a decent hotel of this chain where I travel to…that would be great. Wait..You can stack these babies promos.
There is a new cash back card offering 2.5% cash back anywhere and 3% for the first year. Annual fee, no foreign transactions fees. Need to become an Alliant Credit Union member. Read the whole thing, not going to learn how to do arrows without getting paid for a card…oh wait, did I lose my integrity there for a sec?
Excuse the loss of my integrity for just one line…BestOffersPatrol recommends these five credit cards you must get right now….well, probably not you, maybe your mother in law, what ever happened to that rule hey? BestOffersPatrol will try to assist to help TBB…survive #longshot Can’t wait for hating troll to go off on me again woohoo!
If you are really interested in airline alliance developments and stuff like that, stop reading expert credit cards salesmen and instead read Cranky Flier who wrote: The American/China Southern and Delta/Korean Deals Carve Up the Future in Asia. Very interesting stuff!
If you like to go cruising, perhaps you should bookmark this: USA TODAY’s guide to cruise ship gratuity charges.
Some time ago I featured a story here about a guy who disappeared in the woods and stayed there for 27 years. He managed to survive by breaking into cabins. 27 years in the forest in solitude. Think about that for a moment…Anyways, we have an update on this guy and it is very sad:
He is depressed, disoriented, lonely. He speaks of a visitation from the Lady of the Woods, a sylvan figure of death. Death seems better than enforced socialization. Even human faces, with all the information they convey, overwhelm him. “I miss the woods,” he says, before urging Finkel never to contact him again.

BLOG BUZZ
This section is for advanced level hobbyists and veteran blog readers & personal rants & stuff
This is what I tweeted when I first saw the article in the Wall Street Journal titled: If You Have 29 Credit Cards, You’re Probably a Millennial. And there was a picture of this lady with a Chase Sapphire Reserve sign she was carrying, maybe it was a Halloween costume. Hey she was approved, how come there was no data point at Doctor of Credit for this #kidding. I have no words to describe this…so many travel hackers out there…reading The Points Guy…#killmeow.
No idea where The Free-quent Flyer will go with his posts. Very unpredictable. His point is that manufactured spending and deals are all going strong, they are just underground these days. Or something like that.
I first saw of this rich spend/point Amex SPG promo at DansDeals. And then I saw it in many other places who just love selling 24/7…or maybe I am biased. Or mixed up. Or too old. I don’t know. Maybe the “new” troll in the comments calling himself “Sad Clown George” is right and knows all too well about what integrity IS!<———–notice the emphasis? #schwing
What I do for you guys….So, I subscribe to the Frugal Travel Guy newsletter pumpletter. Always wanting to make me click to sell me more credit cards. They don’t even take the time to pretend to write anything in the newsletter anymore…Sad!
I know I am going down but I am going to go down fighting…for the truth. Oh wait, for integrity too!
And just to piss off the hating trolls some more, you know that the Amex SPG cards offering 35k SPG points that are second to orgasms…end tomorrow! I mean the 35k points per card, hopefully not your orgasms woohoo. Help small bloggers to keep going to keep their integrity! Thanks reader John for that priceless gem…I am laughing a lot with it…thank you. No integrity, sad clown…what’s next?
How about some real integrity…as in the power of pumping your readers with credit card affiliate links NON STOP…WTF! And you accuse ME of having no integrity…Sad! Take this!
To readers who do not like my bitching on and on about these financial product salesmen…I am sorry….for now. I will get tired and move on like I did months ago…I go in phases. Circles too. Whatever. Nothing and no one makes you read ANY blog. Be responsible #wink.
Son was approved for an Amex SPG card. With my links! If this is not Bigly…don’t know what IS!
I would have loved to give away Hyatt Globalist elite status to a reader. But I guess my blog has no integrity like so many others who got the same offer #sad #nonTrumplikesad.
And I leave you with this…Thanks Arnold!

Well
Human check-in time.
Well Well Well
This is why we need humans…bots are just not that reliable…they sleep in after that awful NCAA Championship game…or they travel frequently.

To the reader who applied for the ChaseInk Business Preferred card with my links on March 20th, you have been approved!
Thank you very much.
Doing it with integrity #bitemetrolls
Not much action in Feedly today….
Isn’t it amazing how so many blogs all of a sudden write about the amazing SPG points you can get with the Amex cards…expiring tomorrow?
And if I had a dollar for every time I see links I post in my blog appearing all over the blogosphere I would not have to whine so much. Or sell without any integrity at all….Sad!
Buzz I have been hitting the Gym hard in preparation for my Pay Per View Event VS John.
Click on my name above for workout photos
After taking a look at that link…
my day is ruined…
Not sure what is worse…looking at those pics or being called a sad clown having no integrity 🙂
TBB great Trump link from the other day, I have been sending gang around to friends. Yes, I tell them the one and only TBB gets credit for that link. Since none are in this game, they look at me weird.
Here are a series of articles about Trump might interest readers: http://www.latimes.com/projects/la-ed-our-dishonest-president/
I would have thought I could get a club Carlson hotel in Las Vegas to
use up a couple of near worthless last 2 free nights certificates. But no luck….
As for MS in NYC, it is so deep underground we can’t see it
Regarding multiple posts: Fixed.
Need to pay that WordPress guy one of these days…trying to do it out of my blog profits 🙂
Yeah…the LA Times series is great…
Fake news….nope. Just hard hitting editorial!
Seeing some even more moronic vetting news for travelers coming to the US…WTF…is this guy bent to destroy US tourism jobs or what?
John, LA Times….fake news Viva La Trump!!! Just read a NY Paper knocking Melania’s new White House photo, WTF, she is gorgeous. The bias in everything written about Trump has made it all lose it’s credibility as far as I am concerned.
I am tired of all the cheap shots at The Donald……………….Had a family member who has been working with the last 3 W.H. Administrations ( pretty much since 911) to get FIRSTNET up and running. Said this Admin. made it finally happen and Fast. Kudos for helping make our County safer.
Apologies for above post by me. Sorry they ain’t all gems. Hasta Manana
This is not that John, fyi.
Melania is easily the best looking First Lady. No argument there.
Is there an extreme bias against the Donald. Hell yes. Deservedly so imho.
I want one day (soon) to see you say: “I was wrong for voting for Trump, wtf was I thinking?”. Hopefully my blog is still alive…
I feel sorry for anyone who thinks Donald Trump will care about them in any way. The rest of the country has enough street smarts to know a con man when they see one.
Feel worse if you thought Obama cared about you. Now lets get back to important stuff like look over there RUSSIA but dont look towards SusanRice. She didnt do nuffin
The 27 year woods guy: did he get a visit for the masturbation consultant or a Sex robot?
Carlson promo: cool stuff, yesterday I was researching a 10k bonus property and then got the email regarding the extra 5k.
Lol….thanks for the laugh…I am rolling on the floor…before I take a shower and go make some deposits 🙂
Somebody wake me up…all this action in the blogosphere….
Since when did your neighbor (Caroline) start pumping for FTG? Maybe I’ve been napping too much?
Been writing there for a long time.
I tell her to never bring it up when we get together. She is almost never here.
