Franken snuck in the first time. It depends where he would run but it may be close to the Gentlmen's op. America and our entertainment circus clown politicians.

This is my favorite feature on Lifehacker, keep it up

How hard is it to get people to contribute to the How I Work series?

Thanks for this article Melanie! I enjoyed it

Musical Royalty stood for Musical Royalty. Made me hate on B a little less.

Ive heard they are fun times because there is even more of a sense of adventure than the usual routes. The crews themselves have sometimes never been to the destinations when the ships re-position so a little more of the unknown.

wow, interesting

I need something new but what I want doesn't actually exist right now because what I really want is the smallest device possible that will work as a phone and run the Fitbit or RunKeeper. Nobody has…
