  1. Incredible deals exist through them online. That’s Travelzoo’s business model of self-guided tours. It partners with certain agencies. We went to Ireland in November for $1800 total for one week, which included airfare from IAH, nice hotels and a rental car. The deals are there in non-peak times and you stay on the fringe of a major city. We drove around the country and had a great time.
  2. Nope. Already checked. Can re-book the entire trip at no cost anytime through October. Went through a travel agency and it covers our airfare, rental car and hotels.
  3. Wife just told me under no circumstance is she going to Italy at the end of March. Have the travel insurance, I'll just re-book for October.
  4. Let's just get the three back together and have them coach as a trio.
  5. My travel insurance allows for cancellation for any reason up to 72 hours before the trip.
  6. The French despise everyone and everything that isn't French.
  7. Wife and I are going to Venice, Emiglia-Romagna, Florence and Rome in three weeks. Oh boy.
  8. Morning Call in Metarie has the best beignets in town. A very easy drive from the tourist trap of the Quarter.
  9. Good, stabilizing choice for 1-2 years. He handled the media well during the early Bond steroid years and will do the same for the continual media storm that will follow the team the entire year.
  10. Yea, more mediocrity!
  11. SF has the best defense KC has faced all year. Sf wins 21-17.
  12. Anthony Weaver has been named the new DC. Very ho hum hire, especially since his unit wasn't very good this year.
  13. it's being reported that Romeo Crennel is out.
  14. Goofy, funny and very enjoyable.
  15. Crane did the right thing. Hinch knew and could have stopped it any time. The team's WS window has probably closed. The Yankees are the clear leaders in the AL. Might as well start with new management.

    Neil Peart RIP

    RIP. He had a lot of tragedy and triumph in his life
  17. He and the writers of 30 Rock got away with one of the dirtiest lines in TV history. He was Liz Lemon’s dad, Richard Lemon, and he came in town to celebrate Liz Lemon’s birthday. He told her “you can’t have a Lemon party without old Dick.” Man, I miss that show.
  18. We just got back from a week in Ireland and drove everywhere. The best thing you can do is watch a youtube video on driving the roundabouts. There are many more roundabouts in Ireland than the UK and you need to know which exit to take, which lane to be in, when to yield and when to signal. There are some excellent short videos that really helped me. The country roads are beautiful but narrow.
  19. I've made this comparison before but DW reminds me of Steve Young. An elusive runner with an average but accurate arm and fantastic in the clutch.
  20. DW is the truth!
  21. The big key will be keeping Allen in the pocket, where he's probably the worst passer in the playoffs. The DL will need to pressure him.
  22. It's not particularly luck. Good teams win close games on a regular basis. You are what your record says you are. However, the Bills are going to be a tough out.
  23. Absolutely not a race riot, but a mass murder.
  24. No idea, but Troy Aikman reported it today.
