Funny that doesn't look like your Leaf.
Or dubs either.

Farewell Los Angeles. Back to work in North Carolina. The pilot said I could come into the cockpit and honk his horn. Very worried. - AUS10
That's one way to earn your wings.

Now with extra charges, less leg room, flight attendants taking rides on emergency slides and all those delays, you need every tip you can get to make your trip enjoyable.
Austin has racked up some frequent flier miles over the past few years, so who better to give some tips to having the best trip you can without Rescue Remedy drops over ice and special earplugs.
(Courtesy of a young Austy's guest appearance on She Spies)
Present your ticket to the flight attendant with a smile.
And for some their inhaler. They might feel sorry for you. Probably not.
Quickly get to your seat before they charge a fee for holding up the plane.
As much as you love your backpack/carry-on/purse/laptop, they can't have their own seat, unless they have their own ticket. And no savesies. You payed for the randomly selected seat they've shoved you in, it's extra if you want a choice.
Now for the pre-flight check list.
You could go with this but I would go with the emergency air mask in case there's a loss of cabin pressure. You only get two puffs with this, that bag has at least 6.
You never really know when you are allowed to take your seat belt off, it gets confusing, so keep you hands on the buckle so you can buckle and unbuckle continuously. And everyone around you loves that clicking sound, especially after the 43rd time in less that 2 minutes.
Up in the Air:
If you got a sleeper next to you try to get the flight attendant's attention.
Make sure to point out they're a drooler, it might not help get you a new seat, but at least a couple of napkins. And that's a win.
To make it an adventure, play reading roulette, and read the first thing you pull out of the seat back pocket. Ooooo duckies.
You can try to get a drink or bag of pretzels, but don't recommend saying the tequila worm you swallowed the previous night needs to be fed. It doesn't work.
Smile. It might get you a date, which sometimes is easier to get than that full can of Coke, or complimentary pretzels.
After you land:
Keep your eye on the disembarking passengers if the row a head of you is asleep kick the back of the chair so they get up. Those 14 seconds you might lose waiting could make the difference between getting out of the plane, and getting out of the plane 14 seconds faster.
And last tip. Watch your head, if you're over 5 feet tall or you have a hat size over a kid's medium you're going to smack your head at least once during your flight. You might look into wearing a protective helmet, like I have.
Now go. Go, Fly like the wind.

Vanity Fair has released its 2010 International Best-Dressed List
As VF says,"There’s an eclectic feel to this year’s ranking of the style elite. But, as always, the list is about individual taste, not fashion trends,.... only one real through line emerges: their exquisite self-expression"
And what brother sister duo made the list.
Jake's favorite article of clothing? His Hoyle Jackson jeans. And they are clearly his fav.


Another fav the Billy Reid Delta Work Boots. But we knew that already.
Favorite fashion purchase of 2010: Salvatore Ferragamo made-to-measure three-piece suit (how could you not?)




The love of Grandpa sweaters




Clint's tracked down bad guys in San Francisco, took a romantic short story of hidden love and turned into blockbuster movie, played a cowboy, gone to the moon and hey done a musical.... hello... Paint Your Wagon.
Those Berks are looking a bit Gyllenliike are you trying to win the funky footwear battle round 2?
