Going Where No Airline Has Gone Before

Porter is taking their traffic marbles and going home, Pumpkins. They tried to play fair — sharing monthly loads and such with the media, even though, as privates, they didn’t have to. All was going swimmingly until their numbers dipped.…

Twitter Dee & Twitter Dumb

I divide my world into twits & tweets. Those who are compelled to announce when they got up, when they arose and what childhood memories their toast evokes are in a twit category all their own, dahrlings. And then there are the…

The Morning After The Day Before

Lordie, Pumpkins, the day after Travel Agent Day is always such a pooper. Dixie cups and Bits & Bites all over the floor. Discarded paper flowers made from napkins. Ah, good times. I spoke to a few agents yesterday…

Margaret's Loins Bear Fruit

Never since flashing her jewels on New York’s Studio 54 dance floor in 1975, has Margaret Trudeau been happier. The fruit of her loom, little Justin, has been coronated as befits the son of liberal royalty. She’s waited decades…

What’s better than Christmas & my birthday all rolled into a Victoria’s Secret pillow fight tournament? Huh? Anybody? If you guessed Travel Agent Day you’d be right on the money. Retailers are doing cartwheels gearing up for the May…

Introducing Trans-Fat Fares

Slow is underrated, Pumpkins. Slow food – good. Slow sex – better. (Pretty much any sex is good at my age, even pity sex. Anyone?) Point is the OJ Voting Booth shows 40% of you are saying business is s-l-o-o-o-w.…
