Southwest Airlines

America West sucks. Everyone knows that. Southwest is a different story. Many hate the herding. Never bothered me. For over 20 years I have flown this airline with cheap tickets, ontime travel, a great rewards program and a birthday card like clockwork. My first Southwest problem – ever – occurred this September when a few …

America West – SUCKS

Here is a great idea. Let’s take our shitty airline (America Worst) that has been saved way too many times, with a bankrupt airline. Genius.

Despite a quick 5 percent selloff in the nasdaq, Seagate has risen another 10 percent. Storage is underowned and not well undersatood as …

"Bueller, Bueller?"

Ferris Bueller remains one of my favorite movies and soon to be one of my son’s. I had the opportunity to see Broderick on Braodway tonight in “The Odd Couple” Not a great production, but cool to see him up so close and acting. Little paunch creeping in – welcome to fatherhood.
