Gamblers split tens

I'm using these Istock photos because I've had a subscription for the past 5 years and have 251 pictures to use on the account and doesn't that dog look cute! I wrote this post last week, but posted the people one instead because I thought it was better, and don't...

Communication is functional to success. Why is he using functional? Is that the word he thinks is supposed to go there? Wouldn't essential be better? Is essential overused and meaningless? Amazingly, I've read when speaking, it barely even matters what words you say...

You know when you're half asleep at night and every idea you come up with seems amazing in your head? I remember in middle school when I was half asleep I became 100% confident that I was going to confess my feelings to the girl I had a crush on. When I woke up in the...

I'm a social person. I can have conversations with or without alcohol any place, any time. Meeting people is the most stimulating part of any trip. I spent 2 days in Daytona Beach (shithole) and West Palm Beach (far classier), and ran into a number of characters who...

I never tip anyone for anything ever. That's a lie. 95% of the time I tip 20-25% (everytime) if I'm out at a restaurant or getting delivery. But I'm planting my flag along with a million other people that tipping is getting out of control. This isn't original, but...

Lake Garda - Innsbruck - Seafeld - Cologne - 48 hours (~10 hours traveling, 6 sleeping) I woke up and headed north to Innsbruck, Austria. The traffic out of the Italian holiday village is painfully slow as there is only 1 lane and many people heading home. As I was...

Time is of the essence. One mistake I made in booking this trip was not giving myself enough total time. With 9 full days, 216 hours, I was on the move constantly. I'll display some time totals during this write up so you have a better idea of where I made some...
