A San Francisco area ride share firm, called Zum, is now targeting kids — by offering exclusive ride sharing services to help move your gang to school, social events, and other time consuming car pool needs. Might this make life easier for parents and nannies??? We’ll see!!!
Yup — United is now saying your “hard earned-expensive” frequent flyer miles will now be good forever — they’re even reinstating your expired miles for the last year!

Hot summertime Las Vegas has been invaded — but not by tourists! Thousands of grasshoppers have moved onto the popular Vegas strip —the most popular destination is the Luxor Hotel and it’s 30 story high pyramid.

The “hoppers” don’t bit and don’t sting — one Vegas church called the invasion “the work of devils.”
Some hotels are replacing hotel keys with a digital key using your smart phone. It’s a big trend in Europe these days — although one big draw back is that some hotels will only issue room entry to one phone user. Seems like this new program has some “bugs” left to work out???
