Amazon gives away a free mp3 every day. Check it out: Amazon mp3 of the day. Or, you can just check out Amazon's entire list of free mp3's, some worth downloading!
Shoot, Amazon seems to have removed the dedicated pages for free music downloads. They still do have a free song of the day, however, as well as other freebies. Either search Amazon for "free mp3" or click the image below and you'll see the free stuff
I used to have a major problem -- I couldn't remember the name of this site. I would try canoe.com, and other similar names. But the correct name is http://kayak.com, and it's finally sunk in.

Anthony Bourdain is probably as close to an idol as the young teenager in me has ever found. (At least, the Bourdain I have gotten to know through his wonderful show, "No Reservations"). No Reservations is less about food than it is about exploring the world and *really* appreciating its diversity. Bourdain's writing (he is a writer as much as a chef, if not more so) sets the narrative for the show, and is always interesting, and frequently insightful. I admire Bourdain's adventurous spirit and chutzpa to match it. The new season premiers tomorrow, July 13.
By the way, his french fries at Les Halles are the best I've ever had.

Red Oxx's Montana-built luggage is guaranteed FOREVER. Literally. The box tells you to put the bag in your will because as long as Red Oxx is around they will fix whatever goes wrong with the bag. I had the pleasure of taking a Sky Train (the bag, not the JFK monorail ... though I did take that too) to LA for a 4-day weekend. Mixed dress required multiple pairs of shoes, a few different kinds of pants, and shirts. The Sky Train gobbled it all up, and was well within the carry-on limit. In fact, I also brought along one of the Red Oxx Gators as my "handbag" item. The Gator is great for electronics or other stuff you want to access during the flight -- laptop, kindle, ipod, book, beverage -- it stows right under the seat in front of you. These two bags let me take everything I needed, plus some stuff I didn't, for the 4-day cross country trip ... and all without checking a single bag.
