It takes courage for an airline to start flying a new transatlantic route but that’s exactly what French bee has done. The Paris-based long-haul airline launched its flight between Newark Liberty International Airport and Paris-Orly on July 15. I recently flew French bee’s nonstop service to Paris and back from my home in New York City. I was initially attracted by French Bee’s advantageous pricing, starting at $199 one-way. Now that I’ve … [Read more...]

An Unexpected Night in Cabo San Lucas
The rooftop edges over dramatically - at its most precipitous drop, one would fall maybe 10 feet if they weren't careful. There is no railing guarding the edge of the roof leading to the steps to the lower level. But one afternoon a gentleman showed up with his portable welder and began welding together a metal railing before ultimately installing it. We began chatting - his initial questions were about politics. Always a hook conversation … [Read more...]

Horror Talk with Rich Ragsdale – Director, Composer, Producer and Writer
“Ghost House” is one of the best horror movies I have seen in a long time. The horror elements are so original and raw - the jump scare, the atmosphere, the soundtrack etc, everything is done completely right.

I should have known better. For the most part, to most of the people with whom we interacted, our nationality didn’t matter. Our American accents didn’t matter. Neither the … [Read more...]
