Remain Vigilante!

“YOW is operational and heightened vigilance is being exercised. The airport is encouraging individuals to report suspicious activity immediately.” Suspicious activity like running down the hall with a rifle? I’m certain I would report that pretty much immediately –…

I ❤ The Big Acidophilus!

Well, Pumpkins, it’s happened. The Big Apple has legislated a nibble bill declaring yogurt the official snack of New York state. A senator who helped pass the dairy declaration of ascendance said: “Today’s vote to designate yogurt as the…

I'll Pass On The Egg Freezing

Finding good staff is a constant struggle, dahrlings. I know. Young ones don’t care. Old ones are … old. Fear not. New staffing strategies are emerging daily. Take Apple and Facebook, for instance. In order to attract best of…

Another Keel Is Laid

How many more keel laying ceremonies are we to be subjected to, Pumpkins? There was a time when that was news. A rare occasion to be celebrated. Like when one of the dinkettes here got laid (Talk about a…

Bud Flights Anyone?

It’s likely Jamaica will soon legalize Marijuana, my little doobies. They don’t like the spliff competition from the U.S. Who does? Weed tourists only have to drive to Colorado for a toke – it’s the real thing. (Although I…

Bags Are My Bag, Baby

Truth be told, Pumpkins, I’d love nothing more than to travel with a steamer trunk. There. I’ve said it. I’m a travel pariah. I do luggage. And I can’t stand the growing league of self-righteous travel snots who “just…

Talk About A Tease

How many times has Virgin made promises to Canadians it couldn’t deliver, Pumpkins? “Ooh, look at me. I’m a cute little virgin. If you play your cards right, you can have me for a whole season.” And just when…

It's All About Trials & Titillations

As the glittery, jittery beautiful people descent on YTO for their annual TIFF, many of them have their heads (and butts) in the clouds – the iCloud that is. What’s that, you may ask… as a core 50+ member…

Ice This

  Honestly, Pumpkins, if there is an easy photo-op, travel types are all over it. Over the years I’ve collected pics of people in poses that would traumatize their therapists. But I’m too principled to post them (as long…
