    Since the end of the world isn't coming in 11 days, I'll sell you the same offer for only $29.95, BUT WAIT, you can get two for only $40 (plus postage).

    This $5,000 Trip is designed for two major league geeks to take a two week pilgrimage to where they shot scenes for the film The Hobbit... Sound the nerd alert...

    Well #2, what are you complaining about? You've only posted 77 comments since 2006 and they are mostly all one liners comments. That's about .03 posts per day on average. Let's pick up the pace a bit and give it a little bit more effort...

    Last time I went to New Zealand (April 2012), airline tickets were $1500 RT (from LAX) for me. $2000 for lodging (for 2) for 2 weeks is actually incredibly cheap - especially with the exchange rate the way it is right now.

    #5 i think its worth pointing out that calculating the fact that someone has only posted .03 times per day is also sufficient reason to sound the nerd horn

    #7, I think it's worth pointing out that I didn't actually calculate the fact that #2 has only posted .03 times per day. I simply clicked on #2's profile button and, what do you know, #2's posting average is stated right there... But in any case, I think you're right...

    Take it easy on the "Hobbitual" offenders.
