Gator
Hunting in Bayou
Ladies,
grab your cameras! We're going on a hunt of a most peculiar nature; we're delving
deep into Louisiana swampland to observe (and photograph) alligators. But there's
more - from bald eagles and cardinals to live oaks and hallucinogenic mushrooms,
this a tour you won't soon forget. [GATOR]
Assuring
Comfort, Safety
We
expect a lot out of our tires, yet usually don't think twice about them until
it's too late.
Perhaps that's why Goodyear picked Assurance as the name of its newest product
line. The name immediately puts you at ease, and that's exactly what it's supposed
to do. With
two different treads (one designed for comfort, the other designed for all-season
traction), these tires are definitely ones to keep in mind when you're in market.

India's Famed Train:
Palace on Wheels India
conjures up images of iridescent peacocks strutting across Mughal gardens, grand
palaces shimmering with bejeweled walls and imposing forts encompassing whole
cities within their walls on steep hilltops. On the other hand there is the dirt,
the crowds, dubious accommodations, unreliable transport and the Indian equivalent
of Montezuma's revenge, the infamous Delhi-belly. What to do if the lure of India's
treasures becomes irresistible, but all the bad aspects put you off? Take a train
- not just any old train, but the Palace on Wheels!

The
Cumberland Gap's most interesting hotel, the Cumberland Inn provides work opportunities

jovial, and oftentimes breathtaking property, the Inn is a treasure in the Kentucky

a New Car
To
get the best price for a car, you have to be prepared to negotiate. The most effective
technique is to start with the dealer's cost and bargain slowly up from there,
rather than starting with the asking price and trying to hammer that downwards.
