Sweet j. Poor fella, my Dad died of a sudden heart attack few years back. At least I got to talk to him a couple days before he died, but my siblings did not. Just keep talking to him my friend

This, don't be the guy after the fact that regrets not saying what you really feel. How much he means to you. I wish I had that with my Dad and could tell him that.

Tell your dad what you told us, if you havent. Please lie right back down with him and tell him. Conscious or no. So few of us get it right and most of those don't know they did. Empty your heart and fill his departing soul. Please.

this is sage advice.  my dad died suddenly nearly 24 years ago.  spill your guts.  i never had that opportunity.  regardless of cognitive state

 
You people want to feel better about your life decisions?  After one date with the 22 year old, she told her mom (who I'm assuming is younger than me) about her "new boyfriend."  Is this going to deter me?  Not at all.  Why? Because 22.    That's why.

Go for the Sportsman's Double 

 
I ended up with an older woman at a club last night. She looked okay for a 57-year-old.

We drank a bit, and talked awhile, and she asked if I'd ever had a Sportsman's Double.

"What's that?" I asked.

"It's a mother and daughter threesome," she said.

I said, "No."

We drank a bit more, then she says that tonight was my lucky night.

We went back to her place.

She flipped on the hall light and then shouted upstairs: "Mom, you still awake?"

 
I am heading up to Philly in a bit.  Just caught up on a few pages and my thoughts are with many of you this morning.  I will be visiting my father's grave today for the first time in 25 years.  Death at 44 from a massive heart attack is sobering. I hate that it usually takes some traumatic event to give people perspective as it has for me (twice).  Treat every day as special and never forget how much your family and friends care about you.

Honestly, I feel worse about my life decisions now, not better.  Jerk.

Nah.  It's all perspective/relative.  He owns a boat. Probably wears those shirts with the weird vent-y things in the sides while he's on it pretending to be Merrill Stuebing.  At least you aren't doing that.

Is it possible to love you and hate you at the same time?

 
This kinda seems appropriate fira quick story about my dad:. When I was 21, I failed my entire third year of college, plus the Dean of students STRONGLY recommended to me that I leave because of inadequate record keeping with some student government funds. (We'll leave it at that). 

I was going to join the military. I called my dad to tell him, and he talked me into combining down to Wilmington, NC, where he lived. 

I did, and got a job on an irrigation crew, and worked various labor jobs for the next couple of years before getting the local college in Wilmington to give me a chance. 

My dad and I had our regular hang outs in various coffee shops in town  he was an artist who had artist jobs and artist hours, and I was a student  we did a LOT of hanging out. 

I asked out a particularly cute waitress.  Nice, sweet, great body.  When on a couple of dates.  Made out with her a little bit.  After my second date, I come home around midnight, and the old man was up painting.  Asked me if I had a good time.  Sure, I said, I kinda dig her.  

We should talk, he says.

i might hav gone out with her, he says. 

God DAMM it, Pop, I say to him, you need to give me a ####ing list of girls you've gone out with in this town, to avoid JUST this nonsense.  

"At least tell me, you didn't sleep with her, did you?"

[long pause] 

"I wouldn't feel comfortable talking about that."

"son of a BTCH!"

and we laughed.  The girl had never mentioned it to me. 

And no, I never went out with her again.  My running joke with my wife was that I married the first woman in town I found that hadn't gone out with my dad.

by the way, I'm in New Mexico for the past couple of weeks.  And it is so, so beautiful out here.  Great time of year to be here, too.  And I think people from New Mexico are the nicest I've come across in this country.  

But anyway: I'm renting a car.  Got a brand new ford sedan-ish kind of thing.  And I've been driving for a while, and go to fill up because my tank is about empty.  And the gas nozzle DOESN'T FIT IN THE TANK.  WTMF?

I check the owners manual, and apparently this car is made for a new fangled type of fuel called "E-85."  Some kind of Ethanol hybrid.  So I can only go to a special gas station that carries E-85 gas.  And there only 5 in the state.

For emergencies, you CAN use regular gas, they just don't like it.  Whoever they are.  There is a special funnel that you can use to pump with a regular nozzle.  The special funnel is supposed to be in the trunk, but of course it was missing.  And of course, the people at the rental counter TOLD ME NONE OF THIS when I rented the car.

So I had to google the closest gas station that carried E-85 and pray that I made it there. I felt like John Goodman at the bowling alley when Donnie's foot slipped over the line.  "HAS THE WHOLE WORLD GONE CRAZY?  DOES NOBODY CARE ABOUT THE RULES ANYMORE??"

 
Oh, and by the way #2:  Did I see in Timmy's thread about the best 100 movies that f^cking "Remember the Titans" made the list?  Now don't get me wrong, I dug that movie, but the best 100 ever?  Is he brain dead?  Why not throw Mrs. Doubtfire in there while he's at it.

Find the nearest rental car desk instead of the nearest gas station imo.  Tell them to #### off and give you a real car that runs on real gas like a real company would do. 

 
Sweet J  -thanks for sharing stories about your Dad and wishing you the best in the coming days. 

I love the camaraderie of mostly anonymous internet friends to support each other, provide advice and bust balls.  This is a good thing we got going here.

 
They scoped both ends of my son and found significant irritation in his stomach.  They are doing some biopsies and giving him some medicine to relieve the irritation.  Hoping this is the beginning of him feeling better.  I truly appreciate the support over the past few days.  You all rock.  :thumbup:

I get to have the double scope next week. Fun. 

 
Lots of MILFs here for pickup at Yuke's private school. Can't remember the last time I showered or shaved. Throwing off a very strong musk here.

Glad to hear they're finding some explanation.  To be fair, if I had a camera in my throat and one up my ### they'd find me somewhat irritated as well.

 
Stomach irritation makes me think it's Helicobacter pylori. Usually takes a long time to diagnose. 

Enjoy your googling.

Ah, the old "London Bridge"

ETA - should be more like "Tower Bridge" IMO

ETA - actually the "Eiffel Tower" is what I was thinking of, but it didn't sound right.  HTF do you get "Eiffel Tower" out of that arrangement?

You have to high five over the top of her or it doesn't count.

 
So I've talked about crazy right wing dad that I keep on my facebook feed, for unintentional comedic purposes, before..

He just shared a picture of soldiers with the words

'Sadly less than 2% of you will like and share this picture of brave Vietnam Soldiers. So lets see how many likes and shares they can get #WarIsHell'

This Is The Picture with the guy on the right cropped out.
