Re: To Dad
happy fathers day to all.
I am very fortunate and need nothing, so when asked by the kids "what do you get a man who has everything?" I reply, "a dumpster"

Re: To Dad
See you again one day dad. Now I appreciate you more than ever. Too bad LWA never got my hot rod running that I told you so much about. Then again, maybe he Z06 was thrill enough for you at the time.

Re: To Dad
Special Father's Day wishes for everyone on the forum who has lost a child (sadly there's quite a few on here). I hope you find some joy remembering the good times you had with them, and knowing how much you meant to them. I can't imagine your sadness, and selfishly, I hope I never have to.
Happy Father's Day also to everyone who stepped up when confronted with the challenges of fatherhood when others chose to walk away, or to those who stepped in and became "instant Dads" when they entered a family in need of a Father. And to those who aren't stepping up, there was a good column today in the paper by Leonard Pitts Jr. His final statement was striking and reminded me of the failures of a couple members of my family. "I know that defies conventional wisdom in a culture that normalizes a father's absence and happily pretends the interchangability of woman and man. It allows a man to give a child absence and tell himself it doesn't matter, because so long as there is food on the table and Mom in the house, the child will be fine regardless. But to read those essays (from 12th graders he read)- and if your child wrote one, what would it say?-is to recognize that for the selfish delusion it is. You may fool yourself. You don't fool your children at all." Thank you Dad, for being a great Dad and a great man, even if I came into your life two weeks before your 18th birthday, and you never really got to be carefree young guy. I did, and have you to thank for it. TOM
