Life is the same no matter where you go, and it’s been that way forever. The only difference is a change of wardrobe. Even a couple hundred years
ago, if you were sitting with a cowboy you were expected to put your gun politely on the table..these days you put your phone down (face first if you’re not an asshole).
The point is, everything in life is the same, and no matter where you go or how much dough you accumulate, the one activity that stands the test of time is walking around drinking an overpriced coffee while judging every single person who walks by. People love looking at other people...Look at that body, look at that nose, look at those big ears and short limbs and GEEZ I wish I had thick hair like that…whoa his feet are tiny! Check out at the waddle on that guy! How’d a bum like that score such a prime piece of… He must be rich! Everyone wants to know!
Since life has always been the same and will continue to be that way until the Earth explodes, we can all share in the joys of silently judging strangers. You don't need a job or a girlfriend or even an apartment to do it. It's open to the public and there's no dress code. Hey, lookit that guy. What do you think? Toupee or plugs? Whatever it is, it looks good.

Can you believe people buy our schmattas? If my dead great-grandmother knew she could sell stuff made overseas for $100 on the internet instead of working at a hat embroidery in the Lower East Side I wouldn’t have to be peddling this crap. I’d be one of the rich schmucks in these photos!

The hidden fees in hotels, rental cars and airplanes is incredibly frustrating to me and I would like there to be Federal laws which require transparency. I have countless examples, but the one in today’s report put me over the edge. Given the pandemic, the Rosen Family has not done much travelling lately. When we do, it has been a Jetblue flight to NY, which is straightforward as I am Mosaic, and the app is easy to use.
My son Jack needs to go to Atlanta to get fit for golf clubs, and I went on line to look for tickets. Being Mr. Frugal, I found something on Frontier Airlines for $71.05 for one way. WOW, I was all over that as it seemed incredibly reasonable.
Well, NOT SO FAST.
Wait, you actually want a seat INSIDE the plane and not on the wing? That costs more ($70/seat).
You want to take a carry-on bag? That costs more ($42/bag).
You want to check a bag? That costs more ($37/bag).
Oh, to get the $71.05 airfare you need to be a member of the “Discount Den” which costs $59.99 to sign up and a $40 “Enrollment Fee.” Now you have to add Transportation Tax ($5.33), Carrier Interface charge ($23), Passenger Security Fee ($5.60), US Domestic Flight Segment Tax ($4.5), ATL Passenger Facility Charge ($4.5). All is outlined below. What I thought would cost $142.10 ended up costing $546.95. What the hell? How can the consumer protection agencies not do something about this crap? Just advertise what it is going to cost. The hidden fees have my blood boiling.
