TBB Blog Mission: To Entertain. Educate. Inspire. In That Order!
This site is AD-FREE! You can support it by applying for CREDIT CARDS, shopping with our AMAZON AFFILIATE LINK and clicking/forwarding any of our REFERRAL LINKS. Thank you for your support!
My posts are getting shorter…Just less eclectic stuff out there for YOU!
It amazes me how many bloggers will just throw out dozens of affiliate links in one post without blinking an eye. When other bloggers are so shy of doing that. What is bizarre is having bloggers bitch about the second group while linking non stop and idolizing the first group. AMAZING!
I was sad to hear of the death of Prince. A true legend. Like David Bowie. UNIQUE artists. Achieved success THEIR way. And that is something I respect. Unlike so many subpar writers repeating crap and selling to their readers who are there for clicking practice to fatten their own pockets first and foremost.
My blog is morphing into a more personal and general blog. My little avenue to unleash hell and fury (sometimes). And never ever forgetting about the mission. I never gave a rat’s ass about Alexa rankings and I never pumped you silly with non stop direct affiliate links. The very few times I did was for products I use and support myself and were clearly disclosed that they provide compensation to me. Not sure which month I am going to do this next. Please excuse the monthly pump blog post and the same disclosure on the very top that has not changed in Lord knows how long. So thank you for the support!
How to Redeem AAdvantage Miles with a Free Stopover in South America.
There is a lot of media attention lately to transgenders. I made this comment in yesterday’s blog post and wanted you to know where I stand:
I have done a lot of reading on the subject. And I have a client who has been dealing with this issue. I am very supportive. We are all people. Today, I ran into a post in the local Ann Arbor site that puts the human element in all this. This happens more than we think. I think with the Internet and how the younger generation has grown up with all kinds of tech around them…this is just not a big deal to them (as it shouldn’t be) and we are becoming a more tolerant society which is great imho. And then we have Trump and Cruz who are just angry bigots.
Do I think this may be out of hand sometimes? Maybe, in isolated cases. But this transgender issue is complex, real and we need to show them love and accept them and not treat them like freaks, they are NOT. It could be my daughter or son or yours. I feel for the parents dealing with this and so much more for the kids too!
This is a wonderful video of millenials talking about what “old” is and then meeting some of them. It will make you feel good…To the millenials: You will soon be at that age and you will definitely NOT feel old, I guarantee it!
All right, enough with the educating and inspiring stuff…It’s time for some good old entertainment. This is a hilarious post:
There are some classic LOL lines:
1. Donald Trump is eaten first in every conceivable scenario
2. Kasich gets eaten second at some point, but nobody notices.
3. Bernie Sanders is eaten third and for the next several decades.
There’s no question that Bernie Sanders is going to inspire his islanders. He spurs them to action and eventually sets up an education-rich, lightly socialist utopia based on shared labor, sexual freedom, and fair access to cassava melons.
4. Hillary is eaten fourth, but only partially.
5. Nobody eats Ted Cruz.
He is also so overwhelmingly annoying that if you hook trained Tibetan monks up to electroencephalography machines and ask them to start deep meditation, you will see that the muscles used for punching begin to twitch involuntarily as soon as Cruz gets within 30 feet of them.
A very wealthy Chinese guy went shopping and brought with him his eight robots to show off. If this is not a douche bag, I don’t know who is! In a communist country, lol!
These are the highest-paying companies in the US. Good to know for you overachievers!

Happy weekend Buzzlandia!
Back on the podium with hi-ho Silver, away!
Early morning flight lets me claim the bronze
Respect always to the medalists!
As for Malta,
I am flying in next month will report back if it is the best airport 😉
Take a pic when landing so we can compare!
I’d like my participant ribbon please.
I have several of the 5th, 6th or 7h place ribbons from my kids 🙂
Good morning.
That AA thing is interesting except I’m on United and Chase UR, oh well it has been pretty good so far.
I didn’t bother with the Amex business card offer of 150K points, been too busy to sort the details, plus I already paid my Global Entry so no refunding for that, and so forth.
However — I got an offer to open a Chase business banking account which offered $300. I don’t really need the $300, but what I would like would be a 2nd Ink card. I’m wondering if there is an angle where I can go into a branch and well you get the picture, set up an account if they will. A friend says his branch is falling all over themselves to get him to sign up for cards etc.
OK just thinking out loud here, I hope the rich and famous mega pumping titan bloggers aren’t reading this and stealing my brilliant ideas. They probably already have 13 Ink cards anyway and are funnelling 45K worth of gift cards through their accounts.
Carry on.
I think the rich and famous mega pumping bloggers are too busy pumping more credit cards to their readers to steal your brilliant ideas 🙂
I am doing a Chase savings account park it for 90 days for $250 deal. PedroNY: Anything better? Terms are great too. Still waiting for the $500 checking account bonus to appear? if not, too much hassle for the checking account for less 🙂
I went in to talk to them for the Private banking thingie hoping to get all these awesome offers coming my way. Spent most of the time explaining to the bank “advisor” my business model and how he one day is going to do the same lol.
You may get lucky doing what I am about to do next week. I will ask. Not sure about the second Ink though. It must be a separate distinct and legit type business.
Happy Earth Day Buzz……………………………………………lots of Holidays this week…..Speaking of Earth Day, don’t forget a vote for Trump is a vote for Melania, Ivanka and the newest Trump babe, Tiffany Trump.
What do you mean “nobody eats Ted Cruz?” ………… obviously you have never tried Cuban Food. Delish.
Nobody touches that guy.
I like Cuban music more than their food.
Since your TBB is going more eclectic, can Mrs. TBB publish her World Famous Curry Soup Recipe?
I think it’s from her mother…
I may send it to the blog subscribers, just kidding.
I’ll try to remember
Gary is my favorite!

Ouch… http://milesperday.com/2016/04/chase-shuts-down-my-accounts/
I added that for the next TBB Buzz post already. Good lesson.
Buzz-
If I get Melania, should I go see my dermatologist?

@Sam: Probably a good idea 🙂
OMG, twin sister? Nobody will eat her either lol.
Hey Buzz, I got a $500 dollar coupon code (checking/savings) you can use for Chase if you want it, since you were looking for one. Let me know. I’ve seen some where it says codes aren’t transferable, but I see no such language on this one.
Thanks. I am cool with the Savings acct $250. Drop $15k, count 90 days, get bonus. leave.
Checking accounts have more hassles and I am good 🙂
Buzz-
Award Finder (TBB April 20) wants my sign-in and password info on One World FF programs to go to work. I like the potential functionality but the FT thread suggests this is jist a small start up.
I’m sorta wondering which way to go here.
Tough call.
With all the hacks out there….I understand your point. I guess do it if you are just desperate and need to do some massive OW searches that will take for ever goofing around the BA and other sites…
One comment to that post on Award Finder wrote that he set up dummy FF accounts to use so his own wouldn’t be compromised. But if dummy accounts (with I Assume zero balances) work, then the sitevisn’t using your mileage balance for its search. So then why does it want your log-in info?
This is too tough-I’m gonna get back into tax planning.
