She needs to understand he’s entitled to spend his money how ever he wants to, even if that means going on cruises and buying a travel trailer.

Those of you who were betting that my knees would be the first "metal" replacements, you lost. I now have a bit of titanium in my cervical spine. I wonder if the doc will give me a pic of the post-op x-rays?
