I do agree with you on the fact that Elia is beautiful (with an extremely beautiful name :)) but gosh darn men are strange and complicated. :rolleyes Lol!

Ha!
JohnDB, we may be strange, but I can grill one darn good ribeye!
This is a pretty good Fathers day. My step daughter is coming over in a bit which will be nice. Like HeIsRisen2018 said earlier, blood doesnt exclude you from being a Daddy. :-)
Perfect day, I think I'll get off my bun and fabricate, then weld up some radiator brackets for the Camaro. Wire harness is almost finished!

I was just thinking how God is the best role model for fathers everywhere.



Person: Hey Dad can I have some money?

God: No, get it yourself. You have to earn your money by getting a job.


Person: 0-0



Me: ROTFL :hysterical
 
We "old guys" have a lot of fun with family and a lot of fun doing stuff for our families.

We can do a lot of stuff because we have had to at some point to take care of our families.
Like working on restoring cars, cook gourmet, butcher shop our meats.

We love building things that last. Our best legacy is a great family.

Amen,
Here is my only son. I'm very proud of who he is.
Bonus question. I took this last month in Spokane. Where is it?

Alright, now that I finally finished eating I can post the music video to the song that Jeff made me think of, and then I got a surprise thread for ya'all before I sign off for the night and play videogames. :wink



 
It must be different Fathers day here.

Yup. Winner winner, you get the chicken dinner! That was put in back in 74 as well.

It's right behind the carosel, and it still works, although nobody knows it. I was trying to bring it back to life by using it when I saw kids on it. Nobody knew it worked!
 
I hope that everyone (including God) had a great Father's Day yesterday! :biggrin After I wake up a bit more and have my breakfast, I'm moving onto the next important upcoming holiday. :wink
 
I had a very good relationship with my step dad. Minus a couple years of petty teenage drama where I threw fits over punishments, but I learned that as long as I wasn't a brat my dad was a great guy. I learned a whole lot from him.
He died about five and a half years ago. I was 19, and he had been paralyzed and chronically ill for a decade.
He had a great sense of humor, he made me laugh so much as a kid. As we got older he lost some of that, I guess it's less motivating when your kids are teenagers and you're depressed a lot from being stuck in bed all the time.
I talked with him a lot too. As I got older, we talked a lot about stuff, and he encouraged me to think for myself and have my own opinions. He didn't get mad when I began to disagree with him on a major issue my parents had tried to ingrain in me since early childhood.

I shared this song with him because I thought he'd like it, it makes me think of him:

This song I picked out after he died, because I felt like it's what he'd say if I could still hear from him:
He wouldn't care for the genre though, lol

There's a really sad story about that Cinderella song. The adoptive daughter of the guy who sang it (and I think wrote it) was run over by a car. :sad It was a terrible tragic accident but he thought that he would never sing that song again after she died but he eventually did because he thought that's what she would have wanted him to do.
