  2. Ditto. The DIY Savings link was a real eye-opener. Really significant tips instead of the “give up your morning latte” stuff on other sites. Thanks!

  3. I took Southwest to Las Vegas and one of the attendants on the way back was hysterical with his version of announcements, and not just the pre-flight and safety ones.

  4. Loved the flight attendant. I enjoy Southwest (as much as anyone can enjoy flying commercially), and am sad that I live in an area of the Northeast where they are mostly not available. Boo.

  5. I can’t kick a ball I drop from my hands either, and I’m 32. So no laughing.

  6. On the same page with the kid who can’t figure out how to kick the ball, there’s a video of a kid running around the playground. He runs into the slide at full speed! They play it in slow motion the second time and his parents laughing at him sound demonic.
