Agent 007 asked:


I am going to the Outer Banks on the week of July 4th, Emerald Isle to be specific. My entire cosort of relatives is all going- I’d say at least 13 people under one roof, including myself. However we compensate for it- my great uncle who is considered the head of the family owns a HUGE rental beach house with seven bedrooms so we can all fit.

I am worried about having so many ppl in the house. The last time that we went, as soon as we got there EVERYONE immediately made a beeline for the nicer bedrooms…and there was inevitably a huge power battle ensuing which resulted in them drawing names from a hat. As usual, my uncle stayed the hell out of it at all costs and I followed suit.

What can I do to prevent family drama from happening again? I try to conveniently “disappear” whenever it starts as I am the Benvolio in our group (there is nothing that a long walk on the beach can’t fix) but is there anything I can say to settle everyone down, or at least abandon ship if it fails?

venusazaboy asked:


I live in Hilton Head, South Carolina and I am planning a trip to the Netherlands and I really don’t want to spend a lot of money in travel and hotel. I have been searching online for a while and I know I can find it cheaper than what I have found so far. Friends of mine went real cheap but they forget where they booked the trip through. Can someone help me? I would like to spend no more than 1000 total for two people for a 7 day trip (not including spending money of course).

I dont like all inclusive resort type places, nor do I want some spring break, party central. Any good suggestions for a town/city in Mexico that does not fall into those categories?
