Trying my best to help the Greek economy, they can use the money! 5 Non-Stop Flights To Greece From the US For 2018 Summer.
There is a bubble going on with hotels in Detroit. Furniture and home decor retailer West Elm will build a new one. Can’t wait to see one by…Wal Mart lol.
Great travel post: My 6 Favorite Breakfast Experiences Around the World.
This post goes a little bit deeper on the calmness of airplane pilots.
Warning! Infographic in this link! Visualizing the Prolific Plastic Problem in Our Oceans. I feel so guilty using plastic now!
I found this incredibly sad. The people in it. Hoshiย Ryoka, one of the world’s oldest hotels. Maybe one day Marriott will buy this one too…
I have not been to Franklin BBQ in Austin, Texas yet. But most people know about it. And here is a story about the founder Aaron Franklin who Built the Best BBQ Joint in America. Great entrepreneurial and customer service lessons. And he admits he does not eat the stuff!
For Nick, the loyal Rick Astley fan blog reader. Respect ๐ Never gonna give youย up!
This is really sad: Nearly One-Third of US Lottery Winners Declare Bankruptcy.
If you like bald eagles, you may want to visit Unalaska: The town full of bald eagles!
Wow, what a sight! A Photo Trip to Ethiopia’s Danakil Depression.
Ifย you put it this way…Wow. This Chart Reveals Google’s True Dominance.
It is getting really rough for this churning hobby out there. Churners, Think Twice Before Applying for a Chase Credit Card.
Not much is going on in this “hobby”. That you should be aware. Got some pathetic spend promos on the Hyatt Visa and I accidentally clicked to enroll lol.
I am down 16.2 lbs now since I got shocked by that number on the weight scale in my doctor’s office at my annual physical. I must stop this up and down yo yo thing. Big test will be when I go back to Greece and I am faced with spinach pies and gyros sandwiches.
I am so ready for Spring!
Another tune, straight from Detroit. DJ Rolando – Night of the Jaguar.
Oh, Ben/Lucky of One Mile at a Time is going to marry Ford. I wish them the best! And I think they are going to put all the spend on the cards they are selling, yes?
And I leave you with this…Only in Russia!

First?
That fire extinguisher video is crazy.
Good job shedding 16 lbs. AA helped me shed some with their laughable breakfast the other day.
TBBTheDude says
It is 7.24 first?
What is going on here? Oh, it is Monday which always starts slow.
Maybe readers stayed up to watch the end of the Cavs Pacers NBA game last night like I did.
I think I am going to Wal Mart today, been so long ๐
Dml says
The cats let me sleep!
TBBTheDude says
Why don’t you take responsibility and stop blaming the cats…Nobody forced you to hit that snooze button…
That’s what Ingy would say ๐

Meow!

NIce work with the 16 lbs!
Remember the old search engines like Webcrawler? For that matter the old browsers, too like Netscape.
Danakil Depression is just incredible – like an alien world indeed.
TBBTheDude says
I do remember the day I used Netscape for the first time. I knew it was going to be something…But certainly not like this. If I had stock I would not have sold too early ๐

Iโm reaching for words to comment on the Customs guy who fined a woman $500 for not declaring an apple upon entry into the US. She could lose Global Entry too.
Good lesson here, folks. They should give this agent a prize for getting in the news and scaring people into declaring everything. Then they should cut Customs budget by, say, $10-$15 million since they obviously have people with so much slack time on their hands they chase petty oversights. How ya like them apples?
In other news, I was going to jokingly ask whether Ben would turn right or left at the altar. Then I thought again and decided to wish him and Ford a happy, healthy life together. And no links in the wedding story in the NY Times, boys, ok?
Ryan says
I always check yes to the stupid food, veg, etc. question bc we always have something even if it’s just candy and cookies from our trip. In fact it Usually IS just that which seems to annoy 75% of the CBP people but hey the question just says food. Better safe than sorry.
TBBTheDude says
I bet the passenger probably tried to be a little snotty ๐

Holy Mother of God!!!!!!!!!!!
More clickbait crap coming on those Korean Air daughters. U know, nuts and all…
All day long has been a sea of BS in this “hobby”.
Bluecate is right to just read only:

Clicked on your link to breakfasts and was scarred by the image of the Irish breakfast…the beans part of it. This was the worst legacy of English colonialism.
TBBTheDude says
Lol

Wells Fargo was fined $1 billion. Cost of doing business! It saved $3 billion from the Republican tax cut. And no one ended up in jail. Why change the cultural norms in the banking sector?
TBBTheDude says
I can’t believe the CPFB actually did it!
ABC says
Warren Buffet says thanks. The stock moved up by $5 billions.

TravelBloggerBuzz says
I added the two articles above to the long “To read” list, thanks guys.
Tuesday morning I dropped another five links for the post tomorrow. About 18 and counting.
Why read other blogs when I bring you the Best Buzz around the web hey? ๐
In other news, I am alive after playing a soccer game after about a year away, hooray!

Just in: TPG is hiring someone to travel with dogs. Pet owners have good credit scores and are ideal targets for travel rewards credit cards. Take notes TBB!

Another great quarter by Google. They sure know how take personal data and sell ads.
Aren’t there more important problems facing human kind than making me buy a Nissan?
What a waste of manpower.
TBBTheDude says
These guys are just minting money #WOW
