It was a big win against an opponent that's seeded higher than us in the playoffs on their home court. It shows a lot of character from our kids.

We didn't lose this game due to a lack of hustle. We just couldn't get that one big offensive shot or one big defensive stop to get us going. Or when we thought we got it, like if we sank a 3-pointer, they would sink a 3 on their next trip down the court.

We've been doing this 10 years and this is the first time we've had snow. That's not too bad.

Another factor is maybe the wife would want to step off the fast track if the stay-at-home dad dies, ... Obviously that would be a loss of income for her, too. So insurance could help make up the difference.

There's a feeling of dependency that's uncomfortable, ... I would imagine for a stay-at-home dad it's even more so.

Think of a home as another consumer durable, like a refrigerator. When you need to buy a new fridge, you think about the service it'll give you, not whether the price is going to go up or down while you own it.
