Do you crave the experience of checking in at your airport — running the security gauntlet, having your luggage evaluated, waiting in long lines? But that whole “traveling” thing is sort of a downer?
Well, you’re in luck: JetBlue is offering “Flights To Nowhere” to test out their new terminal at JFK airport.
The airline is seeking 1,000 of its frequent fliers to test the new system. They would check their luggage, go through security, and then wait at the gate for an imaginary flight.
The rewards: food, freebies, and other perks to-be-determined.
The “Flight To Nowhere” is scheduled for September.

Okay, first I talked about the Short Suit. Then the Mankini.
I’m not trying to turn this into a men’s fashion blog but they just keep throwing this stuff my way.
This article says that the Batman movie “The Dark Knight” has sparked a fad in men wearing pantyhose:
“Retailers in Europe and the United States say that men are buying pantyhose — sheer, satin, glossy, opaque or support — in skyrocketing numbers in recent months.”
If this is truly a fad, I really doubt it was inspired by a superhero movie. Maybe some dudes just want to look “polished,” are going for the sleek hairless look.
The article also points out that pantyhose was actually a staple of men’s fashion in humanity’s past — but that women stole the idea for themselves.
