What is on your wish list for Fathers Day this year?

The 2 things topping my list are an Apple Tv (music for the garage and house) or a vac master wall mounted vac.

What I wish for, and what I'll get, are two different things.

I'll either get:
A) Coffee Mug
or
B) T-Shirt

Unless two blond twin sisters driving a Bentley, kidnap me, drive me to a 5 star hotel, and ravage me all night....I ain't gonna get my wish?

I will send my Dad a card like I have done for the past 20 yrs pretty much.

We don't do gifts other than Christmas and that is a limit of $50 per person. It's nice to be able to enjoy holidays for what they are and not what the stores what you to think it is.

I'm done with wanting "stuff" for Father's Day.

My Father's Day wish? To have all four kids hanging out at the kitchen table laughing over some cheeseburgers and a game of good ol' pictionary later on. But dang it, they grew up and moved away....

Love your kids when they're little - they grow up too fast....

Man, you've got this right.
My daughter is 26 and a newly minted attorney. My son is soon-to-be-28 and a new father of a 15 month old. I am super close to my kids, they text/email me all the time. THey live close, but there is nothing like simply being together and having a good time at a ballgame or something like that. That's MY WISH too.

If you've got little ones, spend more time with them sitting on your lap, listening to their tiny voices, hearing them breathe. Its part of what you miss when they're older.

Nothing will ever beat the fathers day I had about 6 years ago....got woke up to a card....and an EPT...positive EPT....wife was pregnant with son #2....

Then later that day we come back for church and there is a new BBQ grill in the back yard.....with a great framed pic of my two older daughters on it.....

Now it's great to just enjoy the day with the family....I usually get to do what ever I want....but if that includes the family....it's great...

Life is good.....

I really could use some Traditional front end parts for my Pontiac so I could get it into a roller. But I know that will never happen.

So hopefully those blonds will just by here also.

My son just got me my Fathers Day gift. A day driving 3 exotic cars....a Lamborghini, Masarati, and a twin turbo Nissan Skyline (Japan model ) on the back roads near here.

The Ferrari got wrecked last week....bummer.

I want a pressure regulator to fix my air compressor and some parts to rehab a free-to-me much-nicer-than-my-current grill.

My wife must think I am boring as hell. Maybe I am. :lol_hitti
