Last week Fred blogged about "Menu Management" -- managing the food that his wife Joanne orders. If it turns out that she doesn't like what she ordered, Fred (gladly) switches plates.
Flo and I have a similar arrangement at theaters. With few exceptions, Flo usually finds the tallest person in the theater to sit in front of her. And once that person has comfortably seated his or her self, Flo and I change seats. Like Fred with Joanne's food, it is just something I offered to do many years ago, and the tradition goes on. For me, it’s the right thing to do.
