D-A-D

"By the time a man realises that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong." - Charles Wadsworth

So I'm not actually going to make a big long post out of this occasion, but that's only because most of what I said for the Mother's Day post is what I would probably be writing in this one.



But if you're anything like me, you think of the lamest jokes and make the smart decision to say it out loud. You then use that awkward silence to check if you told the joke right. When you figure out that you did say it right, everyone's now laughing at the expression of your face - a mixture of confusion with 'Why me???'

Just check out these facts about Father's Day:

1. In 2000, there were approximately 2 million single fathers in the United States.

2. Greeting cards are the number one purchase for Father's Day - 92% of all these greeting cards are bought by women.

Jimmy Piersal on 'How to Diaper a Baby':

"Spread the diaper in the position of the diamond with you at the bat. Then, fold second base down to home and set the baby on the pitcher's mound. Put first and third base together, bring up home plate and pin the three together. Of course, in case of rain you gotta call the game and start all over again."
