I am attending a conference and then heading to Greece for a while. I will miss some days here, please be kind, trying to do my best to keep this baby going for you…
Any guest posts? To the few who had agreed to do some trip reports…I am still interested!
Interesting promotion by IHG Rewards, must use Mastercard.

If you plan to go…Ultimate Guide to Easter Island.
Beijing’s new airport will cost $12 Billion. Yuuuuuge!
Back in 1971, there was an infamous prison experiment at Stanford University. It revealed the darkest depths of human psychology, think Abu Ghraib predecessor. I do remember watching a documentary film about it recently and it was very disturbing of course. We humans can be such animals…
Smartphones are killing Americans. But Nobody is Counting. Huge problem, sos!
When you are a 59 year old gorilla in your death bed and then your caretaker shows up to say goodbye. One of the most touching things you’ll see all day #crying
This may be a repeat. But it is worth it. 30 must see architectural masterpieces.
Same. As in another repeat but so worth it. Some winners of the Wildlife Photographer of the Year contest.
Educational piece below. About your cognitive biases. We all have them.
BLOG BUZZ

Breaking: Andy the Lazy Traveler finally posts again after a loooooong absence, welcome back!
You can get a good gauge of the state of the economy with the shit vendors give away at conferences. And things must be really good judging on what I see at the conference I am attending.
This hobby is on a major death spiral. Another blow with gift cards. Why hold the Chase Ink Plus anymore? Amazingly bloggers keep going…
I don’t know what to make of Southwest’s giving Companion Pass with their credit card to California residents only. Calm before the storm killing it?
Sorry I am not able to be on top of the comments as I am having really busy days at the conference.
And I leave you with this…

Thanks for sharing my Easter Island Guide!
I tweeted THE blog story that is now being written by so many ghostwriters…Why are they so freaking slow?
RIP Kimpton Karma.
Thanks to DML for getting card #9 this month. Will there be a #10???
ScottCastle will save us humans from the robots!
Listening to a cyber hacker speaker scaring the crap out of us conference attendees.

Thanks for the warm welcome!
I know I’m behind in my BUZZ reading, but did you report on the Conference?
I can imagine a few people attending that have been around a while, coupled with bright eyed newbies (hey, I have a bridge to sell you), and ‘expert’ sellers (of credit card pumping).
dhammer53 could write a guest column. 😉
Coming up next: Flat bed on a Lufthansa flight to FRA!
Adios amigos, check my Twitter feed.
Monday and Tuesday posts have been scheduled!
Found a nice soccer .gif for you, George:
