thanks to mike for pointing this out to me!
theory: call again and again until you talk to a customer service rep who gives you the answer you want.
I learned this trick a few months ago while planning my trip to South America through Continental. I noticed that every airline rep I talked to was following a different rule book. Each [...]

according to my blog stats, you guys really liked the last video. until I learn how to make good videos (thinking new years resolution?), I’ll just keep sharing those I already have. enjoy the lip-dubbing below, which occurred when I was left alone in the office…
PS: My Birthday is in 6 days! I’m not even [...]
