The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
They are also deciding en masse to not vacation in the US anymore. Wife was reading me an article earlier today. Canadian visits to the US are down almost 60% and European visits are down almost 40%. It's a big deal because they stay for weeks at a time and spend a lot of money when they visit.

It's not that bad unless you've got weather to deal with. Independence, OTOH, is sketchy as fuck. Last time I drove that I was certain one of the vans with rafts on the trailer was gonna hit me and send me off the edge.

Be prepared to be underwhelmed on the Pikes Peak train. That's a day of my life I'd like to have back. Good donuts up at the top, though.

Scifi/Fantasy Book Recs
After slogging through Book 5 of the Stormlight Archive, I found the Blacktongue Thief. Really enjoyed the first book and I'm halfway through book #2. Highly recommend.

Thinking about adding one of these for my 5wt rod. I'm not 100% sure I like the styling, but you can't get the Ross Animas with the Coors logo anymore. It's only the Cimarron now. What do you think? It's heavy, too. 5.8 oz for the 4/5 wt reel.

Oh, let's just pick a few wildflowers. There are so many it doesn't really matter, right?

Shit like thinking feeding the animals is OK is part of what a lot of people here hate about tourists.

How about you just don't do it anywhere? Fuckin a, people. It's not hard.

It's not something you should ever do. I don't give a shit if they sell seeds for it or not.

MPJ is bad on defense. Nuggets not losing anything there. I'm a big fan of the moves they made this offseason. They finally have a legit NBA bench.

TRAVEL: Points, Miles, Discounts, Tips, Advice & Questions
We hit up the United lounge in DIA in May when our flight to Reykjavik was delayed (had access through Icelandair). I was sorely disappointed. Food was terribad and I had to pay $15 for a Hendricks and tonic. We should have just stayed in the terminal and gotten some food. Amex lounges are much better but, as you say, quite overcrowded. Amex needs to raise their fee to cut some of the riff raff.

Most of my lounge time is in the Amex lounge in either DFW or IAH when my flight gets delayed, but I have managed to swing by a couple of Chase lounges. Agreed on the Priority Pass lounges. They are trash.

I put business spend on the plat and personal spend on the CSR. I know I could optimize for points but I don't really care to. Currently sitting on about 1.5 million miles combined.

Don't forget lounge access, too. That's worth a few hundred a year to me since I use it probably 5-6 times.

I haven't found anything that beats the combo of CSR and Amex Platinum. I know fees are high, but you get 80-90% of that back through credits and things like Precheck.
