Do you have any old love letters/momentos from past flames?
Oh I don't think I could ever bring myself to ditch old love letters. Just reading them brings back so many memories--not even just of the person they were from but about where your life was at that point in time.

The parts of the viola have interesting names. When standing upright, the uppermost section is called the neck, below which is the body. The upper part of the body is called the belly. below the belly but just above the tailpiece are two F-Holes, between which spans the bridge.
now it all makes sense. and here i thought it was a typo when i first saw it. :eek:
 
I need to book a trip soon.

Who do you use for finding flights/hotels/rental vehicles with the best results? (ex: Expedia or whoever else is out there?) I'm not much of a traveler so, I need some recommendations. Is a package deal the way to go or would it be better to do it individually for the hotel, flight, and car?

We've used cheaptickets.com and orbitz.com. with good results, but only for airline tickets. Sorry, I don't have any experience with the package deals.
Going any place fun?

I'm hoping it will be fun!!! I will look into those two and see what I can come up with. Thanks bg :)

I think it somewhat depends on your destination. Usually when I travel within the States, I secure everything I need myself. I can't say this is the best thing to do, but most of the time I usually buy my airline tickets right from the airline. The airport in your area should have a website with links to the airlines that provide service there, and the car rental agencies too. Check out all the car rental links, the prices can vary a lot.

I can often get a better rate online than by calling (say for a hotel), and I have AAA too so sometimes there is an even better rate for that, but not always. I just try all the possibilities.

Outside the States I'd use a travel agency.

Good luck!

MrWag's correct--you sometimes can book a hotel room for a better rate online.

If you're going on a cruise, by all means, use a travel agent.
 
Question for anyone

There's a church south of town that has the following slogan:

Where we treat you like (family)

Why parentheses?
 
I wasn't thinking about it like that; I was thinking that they meant to use quotation marks.

Maybe they're cleverer than I thought. :)

Is it a gay/lesbian reference?

I know, kind of an "out there" thought but, ya never know.

Thanks Scaly. I do have AAA and hopefully that will help with some of the rates too. I'm staying in the states.

Thanks bg. No, not a cruise, lol. I've never been on any type of boat before... not sure I could handle a cruise! Maybe someday. ;)


Also, thanks yank for the link. I'm going to be shopping around this next week. I want to get all booked and settled so I don't have it looming over my head.
 
Yup, there is nothing the youth of today love more than punctuation, it's the new crank.
 
A new Q & A...

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go? Why? What would you put on your itenerary to do/see?
