I’ve been on a whole “Girl-Dad” thing lately and these posts all seem to start that way. See, I’ve learned a few things. There are things you prepare for. And then there are things you pretend won’t ever show up. We’ve covered haircuts, that taught me patience. We’ve covered toilet seats, that corrected what I … Continue reading Life of a Girl Dad (Part 3)

The Life of a Girl Dad (continued ….)
As a girl dad, I’ve learned something important. There are many things I do not understand. That’s how my last post started. BUT. There is one thing I thought I understood. And I was confident. So so confident.Confident in my logic.Confident in my reasoning.Confident that my careful thought process would not only be appreciated… but … Continue reading The Life of a Girl Dad (continued ….)
Three’s Company
I’m not sure, but I think I saw something like this on Three’s Company. You know the sitcom from the 70s and 80s where the three roommates (2 girls and 1 guy) got in all these mixups and misunderstandings? Well, maybe this doesn’t fall into the sitcom world, but it does fall into the blog … Continue reading Three’s Company
All These Years
Santa Claus ….. The Easter Bunny ….. The Tooth Fairy …. See, these are plausible. Believable even. As a young boy growing up in the 60s and 70s, I was raised in a culture to believe in things that I couldn’t understand. But I knew it. I just knew it. If Santa Claus didn’t exist … Continue reading All These Years
Who Is This Guy, Anyway?
Let’s talk about this “Frank” guy. Yeah… that Frank. The one everybody suddenly wants to be right before they drop a truth bomb in your lap. You know the line: “Can I be Frank?” Which basically translates to: “Hey, brace yourself, because I’m about to tell you something you didn’t ask for and may not … Continue reading Who Is This Guy, Anyway?
The Good ‘Ole Days
I’ve always been fascinated by history. Not just people and places, but I’m also fascinated by where something came from. Maybe it’s an object or something that happened and I want to know the origin of where it came from. Or perhaps it’s a phrase that we use in our own culture. As you might … Continue reading The Good ‘Ole Days

Opposites Attract
But …. Do they? Sure, Paula Abdul sang the song “Opposites Attract”, but do they? Let’s think about magnets. Yes, these opposites do indeed attract. But not only do the opposites attract, the same like polls will actually push away from each other. The other day I was driving, it was just me and the … Continue reading Opposites Attract
There Are Rules
We live in a society of rules. When rules aren’t followed, the general framework of daily life breaks down. I’m not talking about laws. Laws are different. Laws are written down and more importantly, if laws are not followed, then there are consequences and punishments. Rules are a different breed. No, I don’t know what … Continue reading There Are Rules
I’ve Been Had
But not just me. Nope. You’ve been had too. We’ve all been had. See, many years ago, decades even, the country needed something. We needed something to believe in. And we found something. Something big, something that gave us a strong belief, a feeling of strength and togetherness. And it made sense. It all made … Continue reading I’ve Been Had
