How to Use ThankYou Points for United Flights. Good post here utilizing the foreign partners. Note: Don’t bother with EVA!
There goes another one…Rite-Aid. Cash only. RIP. This brought back memories of the good old Vanilla Reload days. Some of us made some videos involving that Hitler sob. Here is one and here is mine, which of course is better!
To my surprise, there will be another MegaDO this fall. In Europe. Number 7 in fact. Involving Aegean in Athens which is VERY surprising. Definitely not free 🙂 Before you ask, no I am not going. Too much going on in September. Plus, I am blowing all of the TBB budget on pizza for the attendees for the amazing Brooklyn Reality Tour next month.
US airlines are killing it. $25.6 BILLION in after-tax profits in 2015. Oh my, how times have changed #sadforus
In case you missed, all the pumping “travel” pumping bloggers are on yet another major push to convince their readers that this is the LAST CHANCE to get the Hilton cards. That is on top of so much ongoing selling! Do you like to be sold to? I absolutely despise it. Yet many appear to forgive and excuse this crap and even pay money to see these bank product pushers! Some are even cheerleaders of them. I am not angry but it is really hard NOT to be angry, this crap is getting even MORE out of control. I mean look at this! This gets me angry, how can it NOT to? Check my twitter feed for more beatings and cries for help.
The best bars in America. Some of you are intensely interested in them so here you go. You are welcome John 😉
New venture Trekommend to help people zero in on events while visiting a city. If you have any feedback they asked very nicely for your input.
This is interesting. Enter your home area and sit back to see if you were a winner or a loser since 2004. As in your home values.
14 Beautiful Bridges. Which one is your favorite? Which one you did something you would never admit in public?
Brutalist buildings in Serbia. These are awesome. If this is your thing anyway. These impress the hell out of me than seeing another “LAST CHANCE to get the Hilton cards”….So, this is a must read imho.

I couldn’t believe that profit by US airlines – and on the heels of hrm complaining about the foreign competition. Would love to see Emirates A380 flying JFK-LAX/SFO. 🙂
A golden Pump Day… errr HUMP Day!
This font is better, FWIW
OMG… I remember those first BRT’s with Dan in a van after the Freddie’s in NYC. Having to stop and get someone a cheeseburger enroute… The pizza is fantastic! Coney Island and NY canoles … Those were the days…
I’ll settle with third today, but I know I’m first in your heart after applying for both Amex Hilton offers last night. Both initial went to review. One approved via email pretty quickly, the other is still in processing.
Do I really want them? I don’t know yet, but I was ready to apply for more cards and nothing really jumped out at me except for going after citicards I’ve already had and looking up when I opened/closed them seemed like too much work…
Ann Arbor is up +15% in that graph… Time to sell that Pfizer home of yours, George…!
George, good looking out…now next up
The Best Cafes..
I love the Hitler video, well done, creative and funny..
PS: I like the new blog look, thanks for the larger font
TBB, a big fat kiss to you for the nicer (sans serif) font. Way easier on my old eyes.
The font is much better!
Hello to all…
Not much eclectic material so far today, slowest I have seen in a very long time. If it was not for the never ending “LAST CHANCE” Amex Hilton cards posts I could have taken a gap day!
@Charlie: Rewind 10 years. Observe the industry. NOONE expected it to be where it is now. WOW!
@GringoLoco: Thanks for the feedback. And enjoy the lamb!
@ Mr. Nice: I have been wanting to do this BRT for many years! But the timing never worked as it was the end of school year and we were on vacation mode. I finally was able to do it! Looking forward to it!
@Brenton: Executive TBB Board decision: You are FIRST. Final decision, no appeals are allowed. Thanks!
@Oliver2002: Oh yeah, it has been an amazing deal, thank you Pfizer! I should update the “Make Me Move” price on Zillow another $50k or so 🙂
@ John: Always looking out for you. Thanks for the feedback.
@bluecat: Great, thank you!
@Patrick: Yes, thanks.
AA miles. Freeeeeeeeeee

Thanks for mentioning http://www.trekommend.com , George! Much appreciated. To all, as George mentioned I’d love your feedback, please feel free to send to info@trekommend.com or here.
The housing article was quite interesting. I had fun typing in the cities I lived in, lots of disparity even within 15-20 miles of each other!
This is interesting from Travel with Grant – http://travelwithgrant.boardingarea.com/2016/05/04/happy-blogiversary-travel-with-grant-turns-3-years-old-amazon-giveaway/
The end of MS has killed his numbers.
Still a pretty good run for a part time gig.
Yeah, those easy MS days was the golden age…
Still waiting for the fall of bloggers. Not there yet but I will find a little sadistic pleasure in seeing some of the deal killers go under.
