United Breaks Guitars...UBG Song#3 is released! www.davecarrollmusic.com/song3 There is now a video response: www.youtube.com Full Story: www.davecarrollmusic.com - In the spring of 2008, Sons of Maxwell were traveling to Nebraska for a one-week tour and my Taylor guitar was witnessed being thrown by United Airlines baggage handlers in Chicago. I discovered later that the $3500 guitar was severely damaged. They didnt deny the experience occurred but for nine months the various people I communicated with put the responsibility for dealing with the damage on everyone other than themselves and finally said they would do nothing to compensate me for my loss. So I promised the last person to finally say no to compensation (Ms. Irlweg) that I would write and produce three songs about my experience with United Airlines and make videos for each to be viewed online by anyone in the world. United: Song 1 is the first of those songs. United: Song 2 has been written and video production is underway. United: Song 3 is coming. I promise. Follow me at twitter.com . Video Produced by Curve Productions of Halifax, www.curveproductionsinc.com.

The ceremony was scheduled from its usual late February date to avoid coinciding with the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It will be televised in the United States on ABC. Actors Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin will host the show. Martin will host for the third time, after previously presiding over the 73rd and 75th ceremonies, while Baldwin will host the show for the first time. This will be the first telecast to have multiple hosts since the 59th ceremony. The Academy Awards, popularly known as the Oscars, are presented annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) to recognize excellence of professionals in the film industry, including directors, actors, and writers. The formal ceremony at which the awards are presented is one of the most prominent award ceremonies in the world. It is also the oldest award ceremony in the media, and many other award ceremonies such as the Grammy Awards (for music), Golden Globe Awards (all forms of visual media), and Emmy Awards (for television) are often modeled from the Academy.

Wing and a Prayer Blog began a post thusly : We here at WAAP love blogger Gary Leff, writer of View From the Wing, mostly because of his unapologetic commitment to the tony lifestyle, luxe hotel rooms, and the numerous shout-outs to the W Hotel line of bedding products couched as subtle reminders that, well, your bed is not as nice as his.

Yeah, I’m way behind on this one, tell me about it. I’m not much into technology if there’s an otherwise easy way to keep track of things. Last year I posted about my frustration with tracking miles and points. Little did I know there were sites out there that could help with tracking them for free. I started using MilePort.com...
Periodically, US Airways runs a sale on buying their frequent flyer miles. Usually, buying miles is no bargain. But when they offer you double the miles for the same price… Over at View from the Wing , the bottom line is clear: With this offer you can buy 40,000 miles for $1030, get 80,000 miles in return, and fly business class from the US...
I’m embarrassed not to have written about this yet, but for some reason I keep forgetting. Anyway, for those of you that haven’t heard already, there’s an opportunity to basically buy US Airways miles for 0.7 cents per mile. That’s right, less than a cent a mile. At that rate you’re paying under $1,000 for a first class...
I’m guessing by now most of you have all the US Airways miles you could possibly need. Relative to past promotions (like the holiday bonus or past 100% bonus offers ) this isn’t as good of a deal, especially since US Airways recently “enhanced” their award chart and raised the price of purchasing miles by a quarter of a...

No need to read this post. You can stop here. OK, you were warned. Anyway, I posted a while back about the Mileage Plus refer-a-friend Visa promotion , whereby the person applying for a Mileage Plus Visa gets 30,000 bonus miles and the person referring gets 15,000 bonus miles (up to two times). While the Mileage Plus Visa isn’t my primary credit...
United has rolled out an enhancement to their Mileage Plus frequent flier program: You’ll now be able to book hotels, rental cars, or packaged hotel/car combos using your mileage balance. United has tested this sort of thing in the past, but only for their elite-level Mileage Plus members. The new program allows all members to redeem miles...
(See update at bottom) United Airlines is running a 20% off — or more — “sale” on Mileage Plus Saver Awards for travel between August 18 through November 18.
