Life and Death of a Salesman
well...generally some of their comp is tied to yours so if you rock it out, they get paid too. That being said, I buy drinks and meals for my SA all year no matter how good or bad it is. If we knock it out of the park, I'll do something nice for my SDRs/ one year I took everyone to dinner at Per se...that was fun.

We have twin 6YO's and they still "buy in" on Santa, they know we give them gifts and other family members but Santa and his "list" are still in the mix, we leave a note for him along with cookies, milk and Reindeer treats on Xmas eve. Mind you...my kids also get to celebrate Hanukkah. little double dippers. no need to blow the myth.

Lodging in Paris, and two night trip from Paris
I enjoyed this place the last time I was in Paris: https://www.peninsula.com/en/paris/5-star-luxury-hotel-16th-arrondissement. Wife talked me into the Superior Suite, while pricey...it was real nice.

get a cheap or refurb iPad, ours are 6 and they started watching on them on their own at 5 and had had some limit access before that. its largely Streaming Services (Netflix, YT kids, Paramount, Amz, Disney+) followed by JrChef, Kidtopia, some Slime app, and TMNT apps.

When is the last time you wore a watch?
Every fucking day. Apple Watch everyday, sometimes the Rolex, rarely the Timex Field/Expedition watch and an Orvis watch I was gifted and wear next to never.

voting, smoking, and selective service at 18 Driving at 16 Drinking at 21 Arbitrary shit to some degree. I was "able" to drive at lets say 12, but not legally till 15 (hardship) and freely legally till 16. Should teems have access across the board to mobile or online betting? nope, but some kids can handle it and its great way to "teach" them many life lessons. Where's my pedo bear?

Sure, but lets be honest..some kids are old enough for more very adult "things" at a younger age....its a made up number.

Arbitrary age is arbitrary.

Which cruise lines are trashiest?
sort of...my Inlaws are big cruisers and they have been on the new Prima boat...said while its nice, the Haven is smaller and roms are not as big. the Breakaway has the best Haven.

Which cruise lines are trashiest?
" or NCL which are walmarts of the sea" w.r.t. NCL...sort of right...they have their "Haven" experience which is nice. It's like a ship within the ship. You get your own bar and restaurant (not formal, but table cloth service with a dress code), pool, and indoor and outdoor deck areas. Cabins get a Butler and the best part...you get walked down to special seating for any shows and on and off the boat first.

I get it. We went thru multiple miscarrages, IUI (waste of time IMHO) and IVF...multiple IVF which lead to twins...and yes...its costly but what isn't when it comes to kids?
