The Morning Shave

Advocacy group calls for eliminating Covid test for international travel. – With most Americans vaccinated (and those who aren’t, are not willing to do so), it makes sense to adjust policy based on the current situation. With on-board mask requirements and air filtration systems, the chances are spreading while flying is fairly low. Gary Leff also shares his thoughts on the subject. What do you think about these proposed changes?

The Era of Visa-Free Living in Mexico is Over. – Anna and I have talked about living abroad at some point in our lives. While I’m not sure Mexico is where we’d like to live long-term, I can definitely see us staying there for a month or longer once the kids grow up. These updates just make the process a bit more formal and about the same cost today since flights will become cheaper.

I’d love to spend a month at Diamond Resorts Cabo Azul in San Jose del Cabo. One of our favorite timeshare locations.

The Hero Flight Attendant Who Tells It Like It Is. – If you’ve ever wondered what flight attendants are really thinking, check out this video series to get an inside look. I checked a couple of them out, and they are pretty funny. It’s definitely a fun thing to watch when you need a break or a good laugh.

This Credit Card Will Pay Your Sales Tax For Online Orders. – Unfortunately, this card’s benefits are limited to purchases from a single store. Otherwise, this would be my absolute favorite card for every online purchase that I make since Tennessee charges sales tax on both goods and services. That savings would be well worth giving up points and miles from other credit cards.

You Can Now Practice Curling on This NYC Hotel Rooftop. – Since the Winter Olympics are upon us, many of us “couch athletes” are sitting in our homes watching the games and critiquing what the athletes are doing. Instead of talking a big game, show up at this hotel and try your hand at curling. It’s probably the one sport at the Winter Games that any of us might have a chance at actually competing.
