Can be somewhat oblivious to spousal interests or needs.
Armchair mercenary: "Bla, bla, bla, then you know honey, if Brigadier General Warren's scouts hadn't found Little Round Top undefended, then Colonel Vincent wouldn't have led his brigade up the hill and set up a picket line. If General Lee's troops had just arrived there, say, just 10 minutes earlier, 20 tops, the Battle of Gettysburg would have been a Confederate victory! The rest would be history! Hey, grab me another beer, would ya?"
Wife: "You are sooo smart, snookums! You're my favorite armchair mercenary! Get your own beer, but just one! Remember? I've got to go, uh..... go and visit my sick friend again."

There are 4 elementary schools, Caley, Candlebrook, Bridgeport, and Roberts. One middle school and one high school. Many adults want to move away from UM because of the bad influence of kids, the bad neighborhoods. Upper Merion lies about 20 mins away from Philly. It is in between philly and a small depressed community named Pottstown. There is a high drug trafficking, property crime rate, and the violent crime zoomed up this year.
