Yesterday I submitted a guest post to Dumb Little Man called How to Score Free Airline Vouchers by Reserving Overbooked Flights. The article describes how to leverage airline overbooking — the practice of selling more tickets than available seats on a given flight — to gain free travel vouchers and roundtrip tickets. If you’re a frequent traveler it might help out.
Because it hit Digg’s front page, the article received a lot of comments. So if you want to see a real smackdown, as opposed to yesterday’s fake one, I’d head there (I was on the receiving end of the “smack”).
What do Steven Covey, David Allen, and Timothy Ferriss have in common? They’re dudes. Let’s face it, getting off on productivity is often a male thing. Here’s another thing men like: kicking the crap out of each other. Men have been perfecting that art longer than they’ve been tinkering with PDAs and other work fidgets. So when you think about it, combining productivity with kicking the crap out of each other makes good sense, especially since two of last year’s best selling productivity authors are also martial artists (I’m referring to Timothy Ferriss, author of The Four Hour Work Week, and David Allen, author of Getting Things Done).

While boarding a train, Reverend Tucker was asked to show her ID; in that situation, the criterion for train boarding was simple: who you were, and who you said you were, had to be the same. On this page I’ve hopefully honored this criterion and her remarks.
So let’s get to introductions. I’m Clay. Pleased to meet you. I’ll say a bit about myself and am all ears to responses. Here goes . . .
Some of my favorite things are Quetzals, food prepared in a campfire (or a Dutch oven), the outdoors, backpacking, and human rights. Like a mutual fund, I seem to grow up more than down over a five-year period, but the key is to hold on, not sell
