HK Bound

Well I'm off to the other side of the world again (or more specifically Hong Kong) for a little vacation and time away from NYC. Once again I will be on one of those ultra long haul flights, but thankfully there are enough on demand movies/show and meals onboard to keep me busy.

Happy early Thanksgiving to those that celebrate it! To those that don't, happy Thursday!

On to Packing Stage!

Having checked in already via online, what's left now before the flight is packing. As you can see from the picture above I have yet to start! No worries. It shouldn't take that long... an hour or two should take care of it. This time though I better not over pack like last time and bring a bunch of clothes that I wound up not wearing at all. What a waste of valuable luggage space that was.

Mix-Em-Up Dishes

Most people would order sandwiches from Subway and pizzas from Domino's because that's what they're famous for. I however, would do the exact opposite and order unconventional items from these chain restaurants.

I have to say that I'm surprised at how they taste. Since they didn't have the image of making these dishes I didn't give them much credit and was expected something mediocre, but after eating them I stand corrected!

While Subway will still be popular for their sandwiches and Domino's known for their pizzas, Subway pizzas and Domino's sandwiches are nice alternatives.

Delicious Swine Fever!

Mmm... a fever never tasted so good.

Pointless Email

What's the point of me typing out emails with lengthy details and explanations if you're just going to ask me questions that have already been answered in that same email? What aggravates me even more is when I answer a question someone asked and then they ask the same exact question a couple of days later in the same email! Argh!

I know all those words may be off-putting and a chore to read, but please spend at least a mere couple of minutes and scan through the message. By doing so you can save all of us from repetitive Q&A's and more importantly, time.

Free is Not Free

I hate how some ads says that they are giving something away for free, but fail to mention that you have to first try out and accept some offers which requires a fee. Some go as far as not telling you anything until you notice a mysterious charge on your credit card!

I noticed my friend posted something of this nature up on facebook. Curious, I clicked on the link and upon loading the page, the link redirected to another website. At this very moment I knew this wasn't good.

Once I got to the site, I scrolled down past the big "FREE" word and looked at the small fine print below. It appeared that in order to qualify for this free product, you have to first try out some of their services or other products that costs money. So how is this free again? From the beginning my gut was telling me that this was fishy and indeed I was right.

These so called free offers are almost as bad as cell phone companies' "unlimited" plans that aren't really unlimited and actually have a usage cap!

New Super Mario Bros Wii Get!

Today I finally picked up a copy of the New Super Mario Bros. Wii! I'm so excited!

Unfortunately I don't have a lot of time at the moment and can't really play it right now as I'm planning for my trip next week. Hopefully I can get all the itineraries and routes sorted out soon so I can get a crack at this new game.

Can't wait to play!
