I thought I should make a comment on this post. This was a really interesting post, and in my mind much more the sort of quality posts that you used to make in years gone by. I had started to check your site only every few weeks lately, but I can see myself checking a lot more frequently again now. (disclaimer - I find the PUA stuff painfully boring to read about. This could/probably is the biggest reason I had stopped checking your site frequently. Equally though, I am sure that lots of people love the PUA stuff, and those readers probably love the posts I hate and vice-versa). You can't please us all, nor should you try.

Cutting your 7 boxes down to 1 resonated with me. I recently did that. Scanned and photographed all the old letters/journals/etc that I had wanted to keep. Quite a relief not to have the physical boxes of stuff around any more. 

A quick note about SETT - I like it, and I think it holds a lot of promise. Currently it does seem quite slow across browsers. Not sure if this is a function of the server hosting it, site design, a combination, etc.I hope it keeps improving though because I think it could be really great once the wrinkles are ironed out.

Been reading your blog for years now. Sometimes I find your posts great, sometime mediocre, sometimes terribly boring. But I always keep coming back and will continue to. I love your blog. Some people lose sight of the fact that it is your blog, and you write what you feel like when you feel like it. As it should be!

Oh, and you have a small typo in this post "Now I now your email address and the password" should be "Now I know your email address and the password"

Enjoyed this article a great deal. I am a big fan of this style of living. I would be extremely interested to see a "Six things I hate about living in an RV" post, or "Six things I least like..." if you prefer that vocabulary for whatever reason.

Thought I would also mention that since the change to the new domain name, I feel the overall general quality of your posts has improved. (Even if all are not to my taste/interest, they do certainly seem to be of a high quality). Keep it up!

Agree completely with this post. I am a long time Amex user,and been very happy with them. Recently downgraded to Gold as I was not using the concierge service service enough to make it worthwhile (somehow just couldn't make myself remember to think of it when I needed it).I am as happy with the Gold as I was with Platinum. (airport lounges are already covered for me due to frequent flyer miles). An additional benefit is that additional named users are free with Gold and Platinum, making the annual membership fee less expensive when compared with the green card.

This move to the new domain sounded like it was a good idea immediately to me. Seeing the result confirms it. Night and day improvement I think. A MUCH more appropriate domain name for what you are using this for these days. I like the look of the site. Look forward to reading your stuff when you get a chance to post. Enjoy your trip.

I think combining is a great idea, and I believe it is time that the BTYB domain is left behind. You are no longer involved in the pickup scene (and if that is what this blog is, I would not have it bookmarked and visit, as that is of no interest to me).

Glad to see you settled on tynan.net. I definitely agree that was the domain to go with. To me, it seemed no contest.

I also had not realized you were keeping up to date with Gadling. I just read some of your entries over there.

For many years I have read in the way that most people "surf" the internet. One book prompts me to investigate a subject more, and leads me to another book. That book onto another, and so on. Quite soon you will find that you have a really great knowledge of certain topics (sometimes quite obscure ones). I have found that this knowledge has been extremely useful in my professional life, as so often somebody will mention a book that they have read, and I have also read it or have read something on the same topic and can discuss it with them. Other times, they mention their hobby and I am able to talk to them about that too for the same reason.

The overall philosophy that I use is that I read what I find interesting, without regard for whether I think it will be useful or applicable in my life. When something is interesting and I feel enthusiastic about it, I often then find a way to make it apply to my life. If I can't, then perhaps one day in the future it will.

You have made Google Page 1 status for the search "Florida Auto Brokers." Thought you would be pleased to know that!

I love this type of post. These guys sound like bad news all around. I will keep it in mind, and several of my friends are RV owners in the Southern US and will be very interested to know this info.

I agree with this post pretty much completely, and I happily rated it 5 stars. I have ALWAYS lived my life this way. I am 31 now, and I definitely think all the decisions that I made, and then immediately acted on, have ended up being the right ones.

I actually think that as a general philosophy on life, regret is a wasted emotion. Life should be about experiencing as much as you can experience, and trying to fit as much into your life as you possibly can before you get too old/sick/die.

I have progressed in my career to a point far beyond my peers, and have done so because I have always tried for the new job that I thought I wanted. Job in a different city/industry/country? No problem. Apply, fly for interview, get the airline ticket, then work out how I am going to ACTUALLY do it. Whenever I have thought it would be cool to live in a new place, I have just quit my job and made the move. Got a wife beside me that agrees 100% with this lifestyle and we have never looked back.
