I went online to buy a plane ticket from LAX to Greenville, South Carolina. It was $350 great! However, I went back 12 hours later and the ticket was now $555.99. I had to buy it at that price then. What gives Continental Airlines?
Larry Kellner, CEO of Continental Airlines, please leave a video response as to why you do business this way.
I encourage you to fight the good fight, and next time you fly wear a t-shirt that says how much you paid for your ticket from where to where (I used a sharpie paint marker, it doesnt stink). FIGHT FOR FLAT PRICE PLANE TICKETS!
We must hold companies responsible for what they do to their customers. Fight the small injustices!!!

Since this blog is so extensive and could be daunting to navigate, I thought I’d put together a little presentation of some of the stuff I’ve done over the past couple years. I put it up on flickr – http://flickr.com/photos/marchorowitz/sets/72157607131251326/
Here’s a sample page:
Enjoy! Let me know what you think!

So, here’s the experiment – add me on twitter, http://twitter.com/ineedtostopsoon – and I’ll send you a drawing, something like the ones pictured above. Once you add me, DM me your address and I’ll send along a drawing. This is a nice analog way to connect in a digital age, and you’ll get real fan mail. I encourage you to write a letter back to me… you don’t have to though!

This is a fun game to play. Make up taglines for words.
Here’s are some examples:
Nefarious – not just your average evil.
Tubular – why did this mean awesome in the 80s?
Venacular – a great word to use when swilling wine.
Broken – could it be more awkward than this?
Feel free to add your own in the coments. I’m excited to read what you good people come up with!

I went online to buy a plane ticket from LAX to Greenville, South Carolina. It was $350… great! However, I went back 12 hours later and the ticket was now $555.99. I had to buy it at that price then. What gives Continental Airlines? I know it’s not just you, almost all airlines are guilty of this price jacking.
So I made this t-shirt that tells everyone how much my ticket costs.
Now it makes me really wonder should we be more upset about the extra baggage fees airlines are now charging, or the sick amount of money airline companies are overcharging us on a whim for plane tickets!?!?!

What if restaurants and waiting rooms had scratch-and-sniff walls? So while you are waiting to see your dentist, for example, you could go around the room and scratch certain parts of the wall and smell different things. Is this totally impractical, like a nose hair trimmer that simultaneously scratches your chin when you use it or a toilet that plays Neil Diamond’s “America,” when you flush it?
Disclaimer: I’m not sure what my deal is in writing “today” in the title of these last two posts, cause it implies that I may be doing this everyday, and I won’t.
