I think it's kind of funny that he took his blog down... :)

Many thanks! ^

I think it's funny that he's no longer the first result on Google for his name ;)

Aloha box.

Funny story time. :-:

In 90 minutes "team Canada" (the Canuck's parents) land in SAV (on US -- that's not important, but it's :rolleyes:). 12 hours and 20 minutes later, the Canuck and I are scheduled to land.

Apparently the "am" and "pm" got reversed in the metric conversion for her parents. @:-)

So what does this mean? Her parents are meeting my parents for the first time. And spending the entire day with them. While I'm safely tucked away in my little office in NY.

This is going to be a disaster of a weekend. I can feel it.

I hope you don't stand in the Thrifty line every time you go to LAS. Between Budget and Thrifty's often hour-plus line, I would lose what I have remaining.

Mirrored all over the place.

I think it's funny that not only are people calling him a DB, one respondent asks when his Summer's Eve campaign is coming out. Ouch.

Anyone else read or hear about the crank calls coming in the middle of the night to hotel occupants to take some object and break out the windows in their rooms due to a gas leak. The callers say they are the manager at the hotel. In fact they got a police officer to break the window, throw out the mattress, and was about to throw his kids out the window.

Do people just have nothing else better to do. They say that the callers seem a little older than kids as some of the calls have found their way to the web somewhere. Reminds me of the McDonald's police searches of employees from a few years ago.

I read about the police officer but hadn't heard this as being endemic.

Beer drinking expeditions are best done in cold weather. Brussels and Bruges weren't exactly balmy this past January. I'm thinking Salzburg might be a good target for MLK 2011. :D

I have a different hotel story, last night was the 2nd leg of the Copa Libertadores Cup final in soccer ( Top Club teams in South America Compete)
It was played in Belo Horizonte Brazil after last weeks game that played in Argentina. Someone who worked at the hotel where the Argentina Club was staying notified the fans of the Brazilian club and they camped out all night tuesday making noise, beating drums and setting off fireworks trying to prevent the Argentinean players from being well rested for the final game.
