Swine Flu Originates in California?

THIS JUST IN. According to an article in the Wall Street Journal, there is a growing body of evidence of a possible start of the Swine Flu in California, not Mexico. To that end, I am calling on Congress to order the immediate closing of the border with California. Additionally I demand that the states of Arizona, Nevada, and Oregon mobilize their respective National Guard Units to secure not only their borders with the Ground  Zero Swine Flu state but the stockpiles of TamiFlu as well while their respective health departments of each state should use all means necessary to distribute face masks to its 12,890,407 citizens.

Swine Flu H1N1, Face Masks and Duct Tape

In a follow-up to the 27 APR post entitled, Swine Flu (Influenza) and the Best Tip for Surviving Its Spread I am amazed at the large number of news outlets (national and local) showing or suggesting the use of these tiny blue surgical/face masks as a part of their Swine Flu reporting on defensive measures. I’m sure you’ve seen them over the last few days bracketed by terms like contamination, outbreak, pandemic or deadly influenza. They sure dig props. Remember how shortly after 9/11 everyone was encouraged to go purchase duct tape to protect themselves? Read more Tell a Friend Read More →

Swine Flu (Influenza) and the Best Tip for Surviving Its Spread

Spending as much time surviving outdoors as I do, you learn pretty quickly how to combat a list of natural ailments. Cryptosporidium (Crypto), Giardiasis (Giardia), West Nile Virus and Lyme Disease are just a few of the “critters” one has to deal with in the wild. Swine Flu is making the rounds of late via human transmission and the media. As a strain of Influenza, it is something to deal with but not panic over. Could it be the beginning of a pandemic? Perhaps. Remember, the word “Pandemic” simply means wide spread or even worldwide and does not directly indicate the strength of the Flu in question. Either way, there are some things you can do to protect yourself from contracting the Flu. The CDC is a great resource to check out. Read more Tell a Friend Read More →

VIDEO: When Things Go WRONG, The Adventure Begins!

I was recently chatting with a “Long Long Honeymoon” viewer on Facebook about our RV travels. She told me her own travel motto: “When things go wrong, the adventure begins.” I like this phrase very much. Read more Tell a Friend Read More →

Renting an RV … in Argentina!

by Sean Michael of TheLongLongHoneymoon.com If you want to RV camp in Argentina, the most obvious method is to fly into the country and rent an RV. So that’s what we did. Our rental company of choice was Ruta|Sur (the name’s Spanish for “Road South”). Read more Tell a Friend Read More →

VIDEO: The Long Long Honeymoon … in Argentina!

There comes a time in every creative venture when the show must travel overseas. The Brady Bunch went to Hawaii. The Facts of Life went to Paris. And Steve Urkel? I guess Urkel never went anywhere, although I really wish he had done so. (He could have stayed for a long time.) So it only seems reasonable that The Long Long Honeymoon should continue in… Read more Tell a Friend Read More →

ROUGH CUT - “Moon Of Honey in the Trailer!” from Sean Michael on TheLongLongHoneymoon.com. Read more Tell a Friend Read More →

Is your RV Properly Insured?

As everybody is aware, any time you purchase something like an RV it is a major investment. Like any other major investment i.e., your home or automobiles, you need to protect your investment. The most logical way to protect these major investments is to insure them against unforeseen events or accidents. Many years ago, when I was an RV sales manager, I was surprised at the lack of information available to assist in educating the RV consumer on properly insuring their RV. Most people who purchased an RV would simply add their new RV to their current automobile insurance policy. If you purchased a motorized RV there are many elements of your automobile insurance that relate to your RV, but there are many other insurance related matters that won’t be covered by an auto policy. This is why it is extremely important that you understand the specific insurance needs that your new RV purchase requires to be properly protected and insured. As a sales manager I would attempt to educate each individual on these unique insurance coverage requirements, but this didn’t help all of the other RV consumers who weren’t educated on RV insurance. In an effort to help educate RV consumers everywhere we teamed up with our partners at National Interstate Insurance Company and Explorer RV Insurance Agency to produce some free video clips on RV insurance related matters. RV insurance is not the most exciting or entertaining topic, especially for video, but if you own an RV it should be required... Read more

Montezuma’s revenge, the trots, or simply - Diarrhea.

What made me think about it was a recent camping trip, a group of friends that like to ride motorcycles went down to Johnstown PA to go to a motorcycle rally called “Thunder in the Valley “. If you were there and were looking for the big tough, mean looking bikers. . . That wasn’t us! We had fun but one of our members had a spell of Diarrhea and missed most of the event that he had taken time off from work, driven far to attend and was looking forward to. This sounds like most of the camping trips we all take and who wants them ruined? How can you keep this from happening to you? Read more Tell a Friend Read More →
