Daily gear deals - $6 luggage locator, iPod clearance and more {Gadling}
Feb 3rd 2010 5:00PM Hmmm, wonder if I could attach that luggage locator to my TV remote control? I'm always losing that darned thing. Better yet, my car keys....
Scottish Tourist Board not worried about travel boycott {Gadling}
Aug 26th 2009 5:39PM I was recently in Edinburgh, Scotland and was attending the Military Tattoo on Monday night, August 17th. The announcer/emcee was chatting up the thousands of people in stands before the show started. He was asking for folks (from certain areas of the world) to clap when he announced their home country. He called out many of the larger countries' names and the crowd from those countries responded with clapping, yelling, whistling and the sort. When he called out United States, the BOOs were louder than the clapping, whistling and so on. No other country was boo'd. It was quite disappointing to hear that. I PERSONALLY never met with any negativity while there for 2 1/2 weeks but it ended a great trip on a bit of a sour note...
60 British soldiers, some bent on boozing, booted from plane {Gadling}
Mar 26th 2009 11:14AM Oh, pulleeeze! Sharon B, that was the most ridiculous thing I have heard in a long time. Surely, you realize that we (and I am an American) have the same problems and/or issues as any other country. Then to top that, the fact that you go on to insult an entire country because of one group's bad behavior is outrageous. One would NOT have far to look to find a group of Americans that could top that bad behavior. I would hate for someone to think that all Americans think as you do. Shame on you.
