Whatever appears here satisfies at least one of these three questions:

  3. Is it inspiring?

It has been like this since Day One. It’s been a blast. Thanks for reading.

Mile Nerd at it again. Diary of a domestic flight. LOL material, woohoo! I would rather read this instead of another Titanic headline about dildos or porn or peeing on a plane or Bieber or Selena Gomez or One Direction or, heaven forbid, yet another post “X days left for XYZ credit card, HURRY, LAST CHANCE”:

Part man, part puppy. I shall call him muppy.

Goodbye sweet muppy. Weโ€™ve landed in Austin (where 98% of muppies are from).

What!? He just pulled out a flip phone! What year is this!?ย Time has no meaning anymore.

Heโ€™s now officially on the top 20 most interesting human list.

Well, the Chinese bought Carlson Hotels. Should you be worried about Club Carlson points? I agree with Loyalty Traveler, the answer is probably not. But we also get a very nice history of this company from a blogger who never thought of himself as a travel thought leader ๐Ÿ™‚

Register for Hilton’s new hotel promotion for stays starting May 1 through August 31. Double Points Every Day Every Hotel.

Ranking bank bans that would hurt the most. Entertaining post. Clap, clap, clap. I always advocated to not be a hog—–>slaughter! You can’t play the game if you are banned!

When something breaks at Reddit about a new card, from Benz this time, I enjoy checking to see which blogger posts it first. This time it was, in order: Danny The Deal Guru, MileCards, DEMFlyers. We are talking just minutes apart. Your Titan bloggers are taking their time and likely not post anything since there is no affiliate link for it #sosad.

Big Habitat is back with a very entertaining post explaining the reasons for his absence!

Inside Prince’s massive $10 million mansion. Holy cow! He did not even have a will #evenmoresad

Your personal finance fix of the day: 4 Lies We Tell Ourselves That Can Sabotage Our Retirement. Excellent post!

    1. It’s Easter for the Christian Orthodox folks. Invited to a mega feast on Sunday, lots of lamb will be consumed. I hope I control myself.

      U all Buzzers have a great weekend!

    1. I did!

      #notreally

      I went to one of them. For free.

      Marriott always wins. Which shows you how valid these are. Does anyone care really other than the ones self congratulating themselves and using it as PR opp?

  1. What happened to DOC? Got sick? By the way, question to my boss Ramsey – If a Doctor falls sick, would he go to another doctor?

      1. Persisting with a blog as a one-time band (me) is a herculean task.
        Hercules was Greek hehe

  2. Where’s your Mercedes Benz platinum card link?
    How do I not let the $100 MB certificate go to waste?

  3. @Buzz, when some newsworthy item breaks on Reddit Churning (or anywhere else for that matter), it becomes a thought for the THOUGHT LEADER (with his I know it all spin, of course). Although his blog looks more like the TMZ OF TRAVEL lately, it’s even crappier then my annoying comments here. HT KUMAR

        1. There is a gif online that slowly turns Cruz”s facee to the devil, it”s hilarious

  4. lol the dude is a thought leader in his own mind…

    I can’t even imagine when they get an affiliate link for the Amex MB Plat… We saw what happened with the Amex Hilton 100k offer…

  5. Maintaining your own truck or car brakes is an optimal way to ensure they’re always in top shape. From car brake pads and shoes, to calipers, rotors, master cylinders and brake hardware, we’ve got the parts for most every brake job. Also, browse our wide selection of steering and suspension parts, shocks, struts and more.

    1. At first, I thought this was span and almost killed it!

      You are on a roll today!

    1. Sorry, just spotted you posted it originally! Was on my iPhone so missed it.

      Showed my wife and wants me to sell ๐Ÿ˜‰

      1. Just think of this:

        With TBB’s vast earnings from Amazon, he can make the down payment on such a spread…

        in 200000000 years!

        ๐Ÿ˜‰

  6. To all:

    The move to new WordPress theme and new host provider is well underway!

    Due to this and the Greek Easter holiday TBB is going to take Sunday off from posting.

    Should be back on Monday!

    TBBon!

  7. The Sunday post is late. I imagine Buzz is wrapping up his speech at the FlyerTalk University meeting in Vegas. They put him in the tough 4am slot-his talk is titled “Pump This, Pal”.

    I hope he’ll post his slides later.
