    Taylor Swift sold out Arlington Stadium (Cowboys Stadium) for three consecutive nights.
    No entertainer has done that before.

    Ya know what? In a way I can understand the Dad doing what he did. I'm not arguing that spending outrageous money on concert tickets is ludicrous. It's insane and quite frankly asinine. But if he's got the means to drop that kind of money on tickets, so be it. As a father of two girls myself, I have and will spend good money to make them happy. Same with my wife. I think it's kind of of a natural thing to want your kids to be happy.

    Crazy thing is, neither of my kids have an attitude of being entitled to anything. They realize the work that goes into giving them a good life, and they're grateful for it. If they ask for something, they know I'll do my best to provide it. But if I can't, they never pitch a fit. And I've never heard them talking down to, or about those less fortunate than us. I've no place for that and they know it. My oldest knows full well Dad doesn't hesitate to take her cell phone and smash it if the situation warrants it (been there and done that).

    In return, I get the satisfaction of seeing them both understanding that working hard reaps rewards. They both get good grades and are very active in extra curricular activities. They put in the work and it really shows. So I don't mind rewarding them.

    You bet he was .. just my opinion.. .. he fit in perfectly he blended in like he was an original member. 1 of my favorite all time songs is Take it to the limit.. Vince was lead singer and guitarist on that song .. He was outstanding doing that song.. Decon Fry was there alittle bit also that kinda suprised me
