Bleh, my dad wanted to go on car ride.  It didn't work out so well.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Yay us. I'm hiding right now.

:lol:


What does it mean for all of you with progeny to be a father?  That includes Money and his menagerie.

It means I have a little guy around who is 90% of the time the most curious, inquisitive, good-natured, and happy to just be picked up by me guy around.  Oh and he happens to look like me.

He's WAY more work than I even expected (and I expected a lot of work) but my wife and I have both commented that we never smiled so much before baby Tim got here.

What are the origins of Father's Day?
Is it an old pagan holiday?

I got my dad a card and mom took us all out for lunch.  My kids bought me a Starbucks gift card and some Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.  :licklips:

Bought my dad a new Benchmade pocketknife, since he needed one. 
And got him the same style Father's Day card I always get him: one that looks like it's from a 5 year old.  This one had Tonkas on it.

My father and I enjoyed some lovely grilled steak on the grill we assembled earlier today. :ccr

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Rather than getting a Hallmark card with some cheesy joke, I thought it would be funny to send a notecard with "Happy Father's Day! Your Thoughtful Son" written on it. He is apparently complaining about this to the rest of the family.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Thanks, I'll have to use those.  :D Just not with my father, who is apparently not going to be happy without the Hallmark card with the cheesy jokes.

My 2 boys spent most of the day helping/playing around their great-grandfather as he planted some flowers and a blackcurrant bush or 5 in our yard.

Isn't it though?

And I got an umbrella for father's day.  Hey - it's been raining a lot.

Same here if one exchange guy with girl, he with she and Tim with Isabella.
