What about this is wrong? I use templates all the time for content I want to have a consistent look & feel. And certainly the people here up in arms about bloggers not necessarily recommending the best CC sign-on bonus cannot reasonably object to a blogger actually mentioning that better offers may come along.

I see "funny", "fascinating", "gold". Unless my CTRL-F is broken.

oliver2002 has given us the precise version of one gem. The 'report' he quotes from also includes "The salad tasted like a regular house salad" and "The steak was tasty!"

understood. i will agree with you then i dont understand SOME of the complaints in this forum and in blog comments. and im saying that as someone who doesnt really read any of these blogs, or for that matter any blog in these (multiple) "categories" of blogs. i am fine with flyertalk, and pretty much only read blogs in other "categories" - actual original writings/data etc.
