Government Drops Plan To Allow Small Knives On Planes {Gadling}
Jun 5th 2013 11:57PM Since the TSA is entirely about feel good policy and the scanners don't catch much if anything, it all strikes me as a bit of a false flag operation. If you wish to read more as an informed traveller, try this:

Tallinn's Medieval Old Town {Gadling}
Feb 19th 2013 3:18AM Wow! Amazing looking place. So often towns look a bit inhospitable after snow, but not this.

Train In Vain: Four Days With A Pair Of Uzbek Prostitutes, Final Part {Gadling}
Oct 12th 2012 11:01PM What a fantastic tale! I'm sure it wasn't quite so thrilling in a good sense at the time. A great read. Thanks!
Vagabond Tales: Please check your durian at the door {Gadling}
Jan 3rd 2012 12:10PM I've tried Durian several times. Makes me gag. Reminds me of gasoline infused dirty gym socks strained through a murky swimming pool. A pity since most of the rest of hubby's family loves it.
United Airlines to order A380 jumbo jet? {Gadling}
Dec 3rd 2011 12:58PM While it would be nice to see the fleet upgrade (their equipment is a little tired), it is slightly troubling to see this trend to the larger aircraft.
It's likely that the number of flights will be cut down, as well as the locations from which they depart. This means taking (more) feeder flights at each end.
Also, the level of service while on par with say Chinese carrier EVA at best, is nowhere approaching that of Cathay or Singapore Airlines. So they are stuck pricing themselves under the premium market, which may not provide the increased profits they hope for.
Video of the Day: Don't use baby leashes {Gadling}
Aug 23rd 2011 11:18AM My youngest brother required a leash on occasion. He was a hyper toddler (dislocated his hip climbing out of the crib before he could walk, in the pasture patting cow legs, climbing onto the top of the fridge and drinking the vinegar stored there to projectile vomit all over the kitchen, etc) prone to getting into trouble despite 3 people watching him nearly constantly. Giving us the slip was his favourite sport. Mom had two older kids, and neither of us were like this, thus we were not put on a leash. But my brother likely would not have survived otherwise. As an adult, he has not resented it one bit.
Granted, dragging your kid along like in the video is a bit dumb, but in a crowd, kids get lost easily.

Apr 25th 2011 12:22PM Funny parallel - I lived along the Alaska Highway (in Canada) as a kid, and now visit Malaysia (as well as many other spots) nearly yearly. Looking forward to insights and exciting tales!
