Drinking Bull's Blood in Hungary's Valley of the Beautiful Women {Gadling}
Oct 31st 2010 2:26PM While I am thrilled to see an article on Hungary (it is so often ignored), this article left a bit to be desired. Eger, and Hungary in general, offers much more on the wine scene than just Bull's Blood. Did you even try any of the amazing whites that they offer? Each cellar has a whole selection of wines that they make, with their own specialties. Limiting this article to just Bikaver offers a poor representation of Eger and Hungarian wine. Did you bother to go off the beaten path to some of less commercial cellars? I had some of the most amazing wines of my life there poured for me by the men who were involved in every single step of making their wine. They make amazing Leanyka and Muskotaly among many other little known varietals and will talk to you (even if you don't have a common language among you) all day long about how they make their wine. Drinking wine in a moldy cave may sound like an odd thing, but it was one of my favorite experiences in Hungary.

Galley Gossip: 3 reasons flight attendants won't allow passengers to switch seats in flight {Gadling}
Mar 17th 2010 6:25PM Please don't move after we've counted you or immediately after we've closed the door! I fly on a regional and if you move from one weight and balance section to another it can throw off the whole CG of the plane (seriously one person can do it, I can't tell you how many times I've had to move one poor person from the front to the back). Waiting until the door closes may seem like it's good because then you know you're not taking someone else's seat, but the small planes frequently aren't hooked up to a jet bridge and we can (and do) start push-back as soon as I close the door. You can't be up, even to just switch seats, while we're moving, so that will make me have to tell you to sit down. I'm not being mean, and I don't care where you're sitting, I just need you to be sitting! You wouldn't believe the number of times the push-back crew almost knocks me off my feet, it really is for your safety.
Ten tips to make your trip through the airport security checkpoint easier on everyone {Gadling}
Jan 26th 2010 5:41PM LOVE the "Recombobulation Area" sign! First time I saw it in MKE I laughed and laughed. The poor passengers who saw me laughing there in my flight attendant uniform must have thought I'd lost it.
