Flying Through Airport Security

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

Posted by: Colin Hageney

Okay, you know the drill – after checking in your bag at the airport… the dreaded security line.  Step right up and show your ticket and drivers license to the TSA official. Squirm a little as she scrutinizes your picture from 10 years ago.  Pick up 3 trays—one tray for your shoes (thank your failed shoe bomber for putting us through this hell—enjoy your life in prison), keys, cell phone, sometimes belt; one tray for your laptop; one tray for your jacket.  Push your tray parade into the box and hope it doesn’t get questioned.  It’s especially fun if there are no trays when you get to the line or if the guy in front of you has shoe odor that smells like a stale salami sandwich.

Keep Austin Weird

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

While in Austin for the 4th of July weekend, I visited the famous Oasis restaurant.

Because Austin is a city notorious for the thousands of college students, many of the bars and restaurants run drink specials and happy hours in order to bring in a crowd to enjoy their adult beverages. The Oasis is located on the coast of Lake Travis and has a menu in a moderate price range. In order to attract customers to their drink menu, many of the specialty drinks are served in Oasis logoed glasses that the customer can keep. With this marketing method both the customer and producer are satisfied; the restaurant is selling pricey drinks and the customer feels like they are getting a free souvenir.

Parties in New York City

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

Every time I have gone on a trip, somehow something manages to break in my make-up bag. I recently went to New York and for the first time all of my belongings were in one piece! I packed smart using my cosmetic bag from Gemline…

Cosmetic Bag

It has several compartments, including small cases that you can remove. There is also a mirror that is removable, which is very useful when you’re on the go. It’s about 8X6 inches, but can pack away a whole lot! It comes in ‘cranberry’ and black, which makes it appealing to both men and women who travel. This would make a great gift for any occasion.

It kept all my beauty necessities intact and organized. The bag made it easy to get ready for a night out on the town – a night where I later saw Vera Wang at Serafina’s and Cuba Gooding Jr. at Upstairs!
