OK, thanks to The Smoking Gun the world now knows the traveling requirements of both the Vice President and the who should have been President (in my opinion, anyway.) These sort of things are normally known as "riders" in the trade.

Which made me wonder.. what would your riders be? You're a rock star, or political figure, or some figure who travels frequently and has the clout to make demands. What do you ask for from the hotels you are booked into?

I'd say that in Canada 1% has been around for at LEAST 20 years.

And ain't that a bitch! :D It's a complete mindf**k to me to have to say I'm *40*. I so do NOT feel like there should be a 4 at the beginning of my age. Early 30-s sure, but 40? Hell no! :D
