  1. Plus if you are fortunate enough to use an airport with a Centurian lounge that access comes with the Platinum Amex.
  2. The trip for May is booked. May 6th - Madrid May 7-10th - Seville May 10-12th Malaga May 12-17th Mallorca (both coasts) May 17-20th - Valencia May 20-24th - Barcelona May 24-26th - Toledo May 26-27th Madrid We have tickets to the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona the 21st-23rd so those days will be F1 based. I've booked a private driver for a day trip to Ronda from Seville. I've also booked a private driver for Seville to Malaga and Toledo to Madrid. We have one train ride from Madrid to Seville and the rest of the travel will be by air. I'm looking for dining recommendations. Tapas will be part of our dining as will the local mercado in each city. What I'm looking for are any restaurants that are must eats. TIA.
  3. Yep. International business class is the shit. Inter-Europe business class is just shit.
  4. She shaved her legs for that.
  5. I saw The Wall when it was released in theaters and I was definitely on either acid or shrooms. What a weird experience.
  6. Until you mentioned the age and Hockenheim I thought you were referring to my post about Senna.
  7. I agree. What did you say again?
  8. With the other modern equipment we’d still have Senna.
  9. Should I go? 2 hour drive.
  10. That statement by the FIA is pretty non-committal. It's a "for now" statement, not a "yeah, it's cancelled period" statement.
  11. As Richard Pryor once said. "Any of you women think you have a bad pussy? I'd like to offer a second opinion!"
  12. There was an episode where he showed his car collection. "I've driven that one, that one, that one I don't fit in but I'd like to drive it.:
  13. Micron accounts for 14% and the're expanding.
  14. Nice speakers but that's a tough setup. The thing about bookshelf speakers is that they really aren't made to be on bookshelves plus putting them that close together?
  15. Dynaudio has Xeo10 and Xeo20 speakers that do what you want. Not cheap but you know the sound quality is high.
  16. Do it! I got the NAD Masters Series M33 about a year ago and I am crazy about it. Tons of power, streams hi-res and looks great. I love the minimalist system I have now. M33, Dynaudio speakers and a turntable. Oh, and an 18" Triad subwoofer.
  17. I have Audioengine A5+ as my computer speakers. They're fine but they are nowhere near the league of my (and your) Dynaudio speakers. I have Special Forty's. and love them.
  18. Eli has a humping problem. Thinks everything under 100 lbs is his bitch. Oh boy.
  19. Main grandstand tickets to the Spanish Grand Prix have been purchased. I am stoked.
  20. Unfortunately that tweet didn't tell the whole story. A designated person can still contact the race director during the race. We just can't hear it anymore.
  21. Avios are awesome. Whenever Amex offers the 1:1.6 bonus I pump 100-200k Amex into Avios.
  22. Spain in May. R/T Miami to Madrid in business class - 106000 Amex points at 1:1.6 transfer bonus to Iberia Avios 1st night in Madrid. 60000 Hilton points Nights 2-4 in Seville 90000 Amex points Nights 5-6 in Malaga 40000 Chase UR points Nights 7-9 in Valencia 55000 Chase UR points Nights 10-14 on Mallorca 55000 Chase UR points Nights 15-19 in Barcelona AirBnB (Spanish Grand Prix) Nights 20-21 in Toledo 35000 Chase UR points Night 22 in Madrid 60000 Hilton points Will take for flights in Spain for 36000 Iberia Avios One train from Barcelona to Madrid Two private cars Madrid to Toledo and Seville to Malaga Less than $1000 out of pocket for all travel and accommodations. Spanish Grand Prix tickets will set me back another $1000. Just meals and incidentals left to pay for on the trip.
  23. There is a limit. It can be expanded. My “limit” is now so high it scares me. teenagers: There is no fucking way I’d put an Amex card in a teenagers hand. I will say that you can set limits for authorized users.
  24. Eli thinks he's an 82 lb lap dog.
