And how else was I supposed to transfer between my Cathay and JAL first class flights? Now who looks like a jackass...? 

With the amount of champagne and whisky I drank for free over those 5 days of travel, it&#039;s amazing that I made it to my hotels or back to the airport, especially in Tokyo. That&#039;s my one piece of advice on Tokyo, is be prepared to find your way around on the map I linked to.]]></description>

Bloggers blog. Readers read. Some comment. There will be reactions and there will be assholes. Like in real life. If a blogger can&#039;t take some negative feedback, some inane comments, some completely ridiculous and downright bizarre, if not pure bullying....perhaps they should not bother! If the only feedback they get is of one kind, well, maybe, just maybe there is a reason for it. 

For example, my feedback has been scarily positive. Yeah, it scares me all this love towards my blog. And then I get the occasional nasty feedback which is so out there, it increases the entertainment factor to the nth degree! 

And we go on...]]></description>

Oh the inane tax deduction justification

So they are paying one dollar every month but, with the mortgage interest deduction, they pay 75 cents.

vs

Pay 0 and keep it all.

In addition, the psychological benefits of not owing anything to anyone is WAY under rated. It is like a perpetual FU state of mind. 

Most don&#039;t get it. Heck, most live paycheck to paycheck. You can only do so much to help. Hope it is not too late when they decide to take action. Lot of our money behaviors were developed as children (as many other things as well). 

I need to get some sleep...]]></description>

I have never been to the Maldives
Or took a selfie in a shower in the air
And only seen Singapore Suites in other blogs

Am I worthless as a human being? Or at least as a travel blogger?

:-)

Golden State Warriors win 3 straight, WOW!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thank you Miles Math.

Couldn&#039;t add checked bag to your ticket online because out website was malfunctioning?  $60 please.  Checkin lady told you the weight of your carryon was fine, then security told you too heavy, go back and check it, another $60.

About Titan bashing.  There is bashing for the sake of bashing and envy, then there is that aimed at people promoting products that aren&#039;t really in the best interest of readers.

Is that gif for real?  I think it has got to be staged, what do you think?]]></description>

I really think the best use of TY points are flights on AA. Do you have any upcoming trips you need to book?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve come to the conclusion that I no longer having any issue taking advantage of airlines via mistake fares, website glitches or otherwise. 

Want to change your flight because there&#039;s civil unrest or a viral outbreak at your destination - $300/pp please. Show up 55 min before your flight due to traffic. We won&#039;t check your bags or put them on a later flight, but we will charge you $500/pp to get on a later flight. Find TAP business class availability and want to book it with your Singapore miles. Sorry, that is one of 2 partners out of 20 that we won&#039;t book one way and sorry you already transferred your miles to us. Want to book the SAS business class availability that is showing on United. Sorry, it&#039;s just a website glitch and sorry, again, that you already transferred miles to us. Can&#039;t check in because we&#039;re having a merger-related issue and you booked your flights through the other airline. We won&#039;t hurry to fix it so you can make your flight, but we will put you on a flight 5 hours later with no compensation.]]></description>
