Happy New Year!

The fuel surcharge is now often more than the base ticket price for an overseas flight. Nonetheless, flights seem to only be $100 to $200 more this winter, so you may as well take advantage. The exchange rate with European currencies isn’t too shabby either right now.

I for one would feel privileged to watch some Barcelona soccer games, either live or in a nice warm bar. I only see them once every week or two via espn3.com.

Though also notice that the rhinoplasty before and afters aren’t dramatic and in most cases, I don’t see what was wrong with the original nose or the enhancement wasn’t worth it.
