On Father's Day

As this Father's Day comes to close, it made me think about a few things.

Number one, this is a completely ridiculous holiday. If you really love your father and/or everything he means to you, you shouldn't need an assigned Hallmark Holiday to tell him. It should just be a free dialogue.

Number two, my father (and probably yours as well) despite all of his faults, is probably one hell of a guy. He might not be a millionaire, or have a high profile, jet-setting lifestyle, but he's still your dad.

I think at times it's easy to forget that fact. A lot of people see their fathers as ATMS, or simply the older guy doing their mom. But you should really look harder into that.

He's the man who's been trying to put food on the table for your family for years.

He's the man who is hopefully setting the stage for you to be great parent yourself.

And yes, he probably is the guy who's nailing your mom.

And good for them too.
