well, our generation is also having families much later in life - average of about 5-10 years later than our parents and even longer than our grandparents. I think kids are really what changes your lifestyle in regards to leisure time. So the fact that we have so much more leisure time for longer would inevitably equal more products geared towards our age group. My question to our generation is, when the time comes to have the families - whenever that is - are they willing to sacrifice their games?

well sure; but there is at least 2 years when you can't do that because they aren't big enough. I think a lot of people aren't willing to give up their leisure activities to take care of an infant. And not that there's anything wrong with that. At least they know that. It's cases like my brother in law - people who don't give up their leisure activities even after having children and just expect the ids to fend for themselves or have someone else take care of them - that shouldn't be allowed to breed.

I play video games with my boys. and smacking them around on the virtual playing field is the way it's going to be. I bought my new TV basically because I bought my xbox.

And you know what really makes me old? I saw your sister, rebb in the bar last night. I about went out to the truck and got my walker.
