8-Tips for Packing and Traveling Lite

How-to Pack and Travel Lite

In this day and age of traveling cephalalgia, there are a few packing tactics to employ. To cut out an extra thirty to forty minutes at the arriving airport, start with packing small luggage. Since carry-ons can not exceed a linear dimension of 45 inches, you can escape the fiasco of the baggage terminal by simply packing and traveling light. To learn how to pack all your needs into one suitcase, read more.

Use the following pithy packing tips to make your travel light:

Make a list. Compose a pack list. Be sure to coordinate shirts and blouses with bottoms. To maximize your traveling wardrobe fashion savoir faire, stick with solids and versatile basics. Rule-out any clothes that do not match other items.

Roll ¡®em up please. The best way to fit all your clothes is by rolling pants and shirts. First fold each item in half. Then simply roll. To try to maintain any creases, start on the bulkiest end of the article of clothing.

Gear up. How to make an awe-inspiring impression out of a basic or mundane outfit? For the most glam appeal, accessorize with a vibrant tie (for him) or a florid scarf (for her). Multihued accessories can liven up just about any attire.

Minimize bulk. After you check for space, edit outfits ¨C ruthlessly. Try to pack microfibers with wrinkle and stain free comfort. With most of your attire, stay in the same color scheme ¨C in case you have to layer up for warmth.

Employ shoe smarts. For men, any leather rubber-soled shoes can make the day and night transition, easy. For woman, a pair of flip-flops, strappy sandals and comfy wedges can serve all casual ¨C chic dressing needs.

Put under garments on the top. To reduce the embarrassment of under garments becoming the side show attraction of the open luggage scan, place all panties in a plastic bag free of any clippers, lighters or other questionable paraphernalia. For expedient security review, place the transparent bag on top of your other items so security can access the bag without ruining your efficient packing method.

Lose Extra Baggage. Leave the heavy travel guide at home. Duplicate important resources to keep your luggage free of extra pounds. Since most hotels and resorts provide irons and blow-dryers --leave yours at home for light travel.

Leave restricted items at home. If you want to make it through security extra fast, avoid any firearms, weapons, box-cutters, scissors, razors, lighters and any other item that may be used in a terrorist situation.

A few tips for better posting.
Do not post in rtf/html format. Many news clients can not decipher the
code. Makes for hard reading.

Learn to press the "enter" key a few times in a long line.

Learn to use "word wrap" more efficiently.

Your post shows 178 lines while it only contained about 20 lines of
text. Very bad netiquette.

1. Don't pack a tie, buy one there if you need one.

2. Never mind the 'idiot list', you're not going to get through
security in a hurry whatever you do because there'll be a queue.

3. If you're going skiing don't even think about travelling in flip flops.

4. If you pack 'microfibres' and you're going somewhere warm make sure
you pack lots of things because nobody will want to sit next to you
after you've worn them for more than two hours.

5. Anyone who has 'issues' about customs or security men running their
fingers through their underwear needs professional help.

6. For God's sake take your travel guide with you. It won't be
available at the other end.

7. Don't post in html, it irritates people and then they write nasty
posts ripping the **** out of your silly comments.

The spam was included twice.

First was plain ASCII, followed by the abominable HTML version:

------=_NextPart_000_00FD_01CA26A5.E6BF8190
Content-Type: text/html;
charset="gb2312"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

BODY bgColor=#ffffff
DIVFONT face=Arial size=28-Tips for Packing and Traveling

The spammer is also active as "Red Hot Tips", "Car Tips", "Finance Tips"
and "Computer Tips", and probably more that I haven't seen yet.

The charset="gb2312" suggests that the spammer is Chinese.

How to **** people off.

Repeatedly post lists of the blindingly obvious
to any one with an IQ greater than 85 and combine
it with spamming.

If you must take it, removing the meat from the can and wrapping it in
plastic film cuts down on the weight.
