Thoughts on the Day

  • Example of fatherly love – forestalling listening to the latest episode of Hardcore History on World War I, which you have been looking forward to for over a month, so that your daughter may listen to an older episode on the Russian Front in World War II because that’s the time she’s studying in school.
  • Speaking of Girlie Bear’s history class, I am proud to say that she unleashed her Cuban immigrant math teacher on her socialist idiot history teacher.  Apparently Girlie Bear and some of her friends went to the math teacher to confirm some of the workers’ paradise stories about communism and socialism that the history teacher has been telling, and the nice lady launched into a rapid fire Spanglish tirade about Communism.
  • Girlie Bear and I are safely in Indianapolis, and had a wonderful time meeting a bunch of great people at a barbecue tonight.  I will try to sort through all the faces later, but it was great to see all of you.
  • I had to tell Girlie Bear that she did not need a Zippo lighter after one from the Monster Hunter International Kickstarter was shown at the party.
  • Should I be worried that it took me an hour today to realize that the pocket knife I thought I had lost was in just in a different pocket?

    What do you mean she doesn’t need a Zippo? Don’t you want your daughter to be prepared to light Molotov cocktails when TSHTF?

    Don’t feel bad I once spent most of a day looking for my favorite pen before I realized it was behind my ear

    It only gets worse, brother. Just wait till you look in the wrong parking lot for your car for twenty minutes before you realize you didn’t park there, but somewhere else.

      Yep. I’ve searched two levels of a parking garage for my truck before I remembered I parked on the roof.
