Oddly enough, that news report sounds more interesting then the movies she drags me to...

If your wife is smart, she'll just smile and wait. The time will come when she takes you to a movie, taking away all sharp instruments and rope and make you sit through it. Something like Twilight, only worse.

That's one of the more useful things you learn in the military: The ability to sleep in any place, position or situation. Bonus points for loud snoring.

When I'm tired I can sleep anywhere. Anywhere but bed. 
I have slept in a nightclub - took clients there and they were quite happy with the local seamstresses.
Planes I can be out before the safety announcement.

Something worse than Twilight?
You are in a dark place, my friend.

You will end up paying for this in many ways. 
Don't expect an amorous evening when you get home, or for some time after that.

I won't try to convince your CEO on the basis of an undocumented big prize.
THESE PEOPLE REALLY BOTHER ME!! How can they know what you should do without knowing what you want done?!?!

Via my father I'm connected to the Agnelli family - so I may produce you a nice - framed - picture of a classic fiat model 
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Man up. You're getting paid.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Not that much!

If you work directly for the CEO then
Its your job to convince him..
else
Get our manager to move it up the chain.
end
Generally if you have to convince the CEO, then you have to do it on term he can appreciate. These normally take the form of
- Risk to the company (Risk mitigation)
- Cost (on going support)
- Benefits.
He will not be concerned about the impact on you... Good Luck

The Big Prize" is that you will be doing the documentation along with all your other work. 
Watch what you ask for, you may get it. 
No good deed goes unpunished.
