Wow. This is non sequitur.
Is this the best you can do to prove you can dish out the snark?
OP: I thought it was A+ snark.
Maybe not A+, but certainly A snark.
I approve.

You'll use it plenty over the years.

As for learning how to head the ball - there are lots of pros who are really bad at it. You can get away with being clueless in the air if you are ultra elite with the ball at your feet.
When's the last time you saw iniesta or xavi execute a half decent header that wasn't a cushioned trap off a lob pass?
Xavi and Iniesta are both ~5'7" and play in the midfield. Heading's not a big part of their game.
Betcha they're damn good at it, though, if they need to be.
Get a nice big bird. Leftovers are great!

There are other ways to see athletic endeavors. Partially you have to know the sports that interest you. Gymnastics? We take the kids to GWU gymnastics meets. Basketball is easy. Some of the smaller sports- rowing or whatever - might be harder to find, but there are probably national championships.
I'd certainly try to identify other venues before tackling the Olympics.

Good advice here.
Loads of good sports teams around - UofMD men's soccer, women's field hockey, numerous college basketball teams, etc

Yeah, once it's funny. After that, not so much.
I think it's a bad idea to have a baby now.

The next weekend he took it to our usual place (Virginia Tire and Auto) and they called him back and said all he needed was about 1/4 bottle of brake fluid and that his front and back brakes both had at least 80% of the padding left on them and there was no need for new brakes. Didn't even charge him for the labor to do that. He was so pissed- the dealership he took it to was one we have bought TWO cars from, but we will no longer be going to them thanks to that shadiness.
Good call. FYI brake fluid shouldn't be topped off like motor oil; it should be flushed along with the entire system. It's an important service most people forget and and should be done every 2 years before the fluid turns brown and deteriorates.
Don't agree at all. It's a closed system, so no contaminants should get into it like the oil system.
I've had numerous cars for 200+K miles and never had an issue with this.
Spaghetti, chili, jambalaya

We'd go to Honolulu and also to Maui.
My concern is less the plane flight, since we could break it up at LAX, than the six-hour time change. I feel like it'll basically be hell in paradise, but it's hard to say no. And it has the potential to be awesome.
DS is a pretty easygoing baby and has traveled in the continental USA without too much of an issue.
Because of what you wrote that I bolded, I'd say give it a go. If it turns out badly, you'll have a good story to tell.

Truthfully, do men cheat on these types of trips? I can't imagine that he wouldn't. As background, we have 2 small children and our sex life is definitely lacking,
Perhaps he may.
He of course, will never admit to it, but if the opportunity arises, he most likely will take the bait. Add in some tequila shots and what happens in Cancun will most likely stay there.
A 50 year old DH here who travels frequently (for business and with groups of guy friends). I would say that unless his friends are real dirtbags, the social pressure from his friends will be for him NOT to cheat. Chat up a pretty girl at a bar, yes, just for the fun of it. But sex? I don't see it happening. Poor bastard is more likely to be the one steering the others home. All that said, you are the one who wrote "I can't imagine that he wouldn't", which to me says more about you and the state of your marriage than about this Cancun trip.

Unless all of these guys do this all the time

Huh? You mean they don't have any money, but somehow buy a one way ticket?
You got any stats about that?

No, it's just sheer astonishment at the shit show he is putting on. The only thing that is frightening is that some people think he is a good candidate or a good man or sane.
It's similar to the Palin phenomena that makes the Republicans swoon.

Dear PP's children: I'm sorry your parents aren't terribly open-minded about religion and other's opinions. Signed - a conservative who knows there are bigger reasons to reject a candidate than this.
Opinions are one thing. Facts are another.
You don't know the difference, do you?
