    I am an internet illiterate since I never bought anything online. This has nothing to do with my rebellion, but more with my paranoia.

    Now I am asking all of you online junkies; what is a good online place to buy extremely cheap flighttickets?

    You must have booked at the wrong place then, flight tickets for me have been going down quite a lot the last couple of years.

    I bought a ticket from charleston WV to St.Louis for $85 at continental.com granted the first plane had like 14 seats and was very tiny and loud. But still I thought that was a killer deal.

    never buying anything on line isn't being illiterate. it's just plain good sense.

    there are a few exceptions. things that let you try them out for free first.
    or try out and keep fully functional parts of them without doing anything nasty to your computer. and asking only a very small and reasonable amout for the rest of registered functionality.

    you can order stuff on line if it's something you know exactly what it is and its from someone you can trust it to be. i would keep this limited to very niche sorts of things, where people don't buy things for their labels or any of that crap.

    i would certainly never buy common things that way, like clothing or anything else 'mainstream', nor anything exceptionaly expensive.

    like i said; common sense.

    So maybe we all would need to know from, to and when, then also the price range you wish to stay within.

    I think we have more in common than either of us likes to admit.

    ebookers, and then anything from continental airlines.
    i love continental airlines,
    when you're 10 minutes late cuz a dude thinks there are insects in your milkyway cookies, and that you must have drugs on you cuz you're dutch, you're still in time for the flight,
    and they have spekkoek.

    Ik heb geen vrienden die Lonny heten. En verder kan ik ook niet zeggen dat ik er zo eentje ken.

    De grote vraag die blijft dus: wie is Lonny?
