     Kommentar till en text av MICHAEL LOO
Ärende: Re: S'pore 241
======================
-=> Quoting Michael Loo to Nancy Backus on 02-20-15  21:21 <=-

 ML>> little twinge here and there, but even if I were in rural
 ML>> France I could get myself to a respectable medical facility
 ML>> in not much more time than I wasted getting to MGH.
 NB>> Talking yourself out of worrying about it, eh...?  ;)  Probably true
 NB>> enough, though...  :)
 ML> I've not been so worried as various other people who
 ML> make up for my relative nonchalance with an abundance
 ML> of concern. I do figure that it would be rude to keel
 ML> over and disappoint my constituency.
 
That would indeed be rude... ;)  I can relate to the nonchalance,
though, and worry doesn't make much difference in the long run..

 ML>> The event is heavily subscribed anyway with a mix of affluent
 ML>> people and those for whom this is the big treat of the year.
 ML>> I'm somewhere in between.
 NB>> Still no need to have it more costly than necessary...  :)
 ML> United is doing its best to make more costly than
 ML> necessary attractive - in order to requalify for
 ML> status next year, I have to spend $12K exclusive of
 ML> taxes. Not going to happen, think I, as I just don't
 ML> have that kind of dough.

Seems that status is being offered more to those to whom money is no
object... what's a measly $12K/yr, after all, when one might drop that
on a single party... ;/

 NB>> So for a one off it would be a decent choice... just not for a
 NB>> permanent change of venue...  :)
 ML> Right. But there are few if any places that could match
 ML> the advantages that Singapore used to offer. Maybe India,
 ML> but that's a little dodgy even for my taste.

Hygenics, unrest..?
 
 NB>>> You get the best fares for the intercontinental flight from United to
 NB>>> Singapore...?  Or just the best way to earn your frequent flyer miles
 NB>>> for the trip...?
 ML>> The most miles for about the same number of dollars.
 NB>> Ah.  ok...  ;)
 ML> Of course, as intimated above, that has become less
 ML> important. 

Since spending more money has become more important to United than how
many miles you fly...?

 ML> I actually thought of moving to Haiti - a friend started
 ML> a music school there, but it was wrecked in the earthquake.
 ML> I don't know its current status, but the country doesn't
 ML> seem to be appropriate to my own current status.

Health care isn't particularly a strong point there, for one thing...
 
 ML> Singapore is wild over pork belly. That's always been a
 ML> mainstay of southern Chinese cooking; it's just that
 ML> recently there as here it has gotten cult status among
 ML> the affluent "foodies" (I hate that word and all the
 ML> shallow trendiness that goes with it).

Probably an appropriate name, given the shallowness it implies...
and the faddism... One hopefully doesn't get lumped in with them,
though... ;0
