As a species, we've done pretty well, if you can ignore wars, debauchery and outright badness. But what is it that makes us do bad things to others, even when there is no viable reason for it. Not like it's a new thing: we've been doing it since we rose up from…
You may think you have it all, and maybe you do. But can you top this?

Today we offer a post on Asia, again (this case Japan) where nearly everything is possible and they make sure to make it so. We recently posted a hotel in Japan that is 7.0$ per night. We thought it was a joke, but it certainly wasn't (read more here ) We suppose every country…

Or both? Bring euros. They're welcome and so are you.
Note: some of this content was featured in a previous: post, but much of it remains the same. Now back to now! While several Chinese cities exhibit European architectural or cultural influences, Harbin is often cited as the most visibly European city due…

Well, he's at it again, almost the world's ombudsman as he leaps from place to place and situation to situation. That's Walk With Me Tim. He's blown wads of cash, badly, in Vegas. Blown even more in some of the most expensive hotels on the planet, as he always looks for the…

It's not nice to fool mother nature. As humans, we've been tempting fate when it comes to where we live, what we do and our place on the planet for too long. Some of us revere the planet and do everything we can to save it. Others bludgeon onward without a care in…
