The Taite Guide to Airports
We arrived at the airport three hours before departure time. My wife wasn't very happy about that fact but our previous holiday was all but ruined by the fact that the plane took off without us. This was the only time I can remember when my flight actually left when they said it would. We were late due to a traffic jam resulting from the collision between a truck full of boxes of adult Pampers and a semi-trailer...

Project Management Life as a project manager is comparable to a mountain climber's. The big difference being that when you get to the peak you find there is no safe way down.

It was a beautiful ...

Aliens for Neighbours: How to spot Co-Workers from Another Planet
It all started with a nightmare brought on by an overdose of chocolate, beer and late night horror movies. The dream started off normally enough. Getting up, eating breakfast, commuting to work. Then I noticed something peculiar. Something about my co-workers didn't seem kosher. Was it the fact that the doorman's skin was a bright green, or that our secretary was finding it difficult to hide her middle leg. Only a ...

Not quite my friend. There are still opportunities out there to make money from thin air - literally. Here is a list of some possible options and because I'm...

Great reasons to split up:

For your information I'm gay, I'm moving in with an incredibly sexy blonde bisexual starlet, the kids aren't actually yours and for that matter neither is the dog. The original Rex got run over by a speeding truck three years ago. So much for your attention span!

After meeting BigJohn7447_2 from Idaho you're not really sure what you expected, but definitely not this.

"I just checked you out on Facebook. How come you're so pally  with the 74 ex boyfriends from high school that are still in contact with you?"

You snore to the tune of the American national anthem and I'm a patriotic Brit.

You call your girlfriend late one night and have long passionate phone sex for over an hour before you realize that you are speaking to her roommate - the one who models for Vogue, and when you tell your girlfriend, for some reason she doesn't buy your story.

"I am going on tour and I can't have a girlfriend while I'm on tour because you'll think I'm cheating you and I won't be, but you'll still think so and so you'll go cheat on me to get even, and even if you don't, I'll think that you are"

I've joined Mossad now and I just don’t want to put your life in danger by being close to you.

It's true I was looking for a girl who was like my mother, but after two years of therapy I'm cured. Now I'm looking for someone who resembles my dad.

You're far too young for me. Perhaps you could introduce me to your mum

You have shown me where the real truth lies and that place is called a convent.
