A couple random thoughts this evening:

1. Why do the San Diego Chargers (and I'm sure other professional sports teams) insist on giving out things like posters and calendars as you enter the stadium?  Don't get me wrong if it's a towel or hat giving it out on the way in works... but take this past Sunday as each person entered they were offered a poster literally a 2 foot by 4 foot poster with key players in the new ugly uniforms.  Great - but where do you put them for the rest of the game - you can't take it back out to your car and under your seat it gets trashed - if 10 people managed to keep them in pristine shape (out of 57K attendees) I would be amazed.  Do us a favor - let us pick up that sort of thing on the way out where there's actually a good chance it'll make it home as opposed to going straight to the stadium dumpster and local landfill.

2. OK, I know it's considered good practice to bring everyone's food at once but a note to what we'll call informal restaurants - Chili's, Applebee's, Friday's, etc.  If you have a couple with an infant/toddler (in a high chair) and the parents order something for the small child do us all a favor and offer to bring it early.  Mom and Dad have to cut and prep everything for the toddler so having the child's food arrive early is a blessing - they can focus on getting the child started and then when their food arrives shortly (and short is important) thereafter they can actually focus on eating while the child eats as opposed to one or both letting their dinner grow cold.
