Sorry for the lack of posts. There are some developments that have been happening purposely off the radar that will launch soon, revitalizing this blog and launching it into new echelons of content, utility, and glory.
Here’s an interesting observation. In the last 8 days, 90% of my consumption has occurred in either a resort, airport, movie theater, or sports stadium. After spending some time in these places, it has really affected my ability to judge what is a decent price. For example, at the resorts where I was staying, a Fiji water costs between 50 and 70 pesos ($5 to $7). At either the movies or stadium, water (not Fiji brand) was a bargain at $3.75. Airports are similar (for the record, I have been in 5 different airports in the last 8 days) Last night, near a hotel in downtown Chicago, I ran into a 7-Eleven to get some water, and, lo and behold, Fiji water priced at the low price of $2.83. I had never had a Fiji water before last night, but after seeing such a bargain, how could I refuse?

You left out the part about actually drinking the water instead of leaving it in your carry-on luggage!
