JOKES ABOUT DADS
The best way for dads to keep kids at home is to be pleasant and let the air out of their tires.
Dads are like fudge....mostly sweet, with a few nuts.
A dad is like a mighty oak that just yesterday was a nut that held its ground.
Middle age is when dad chooses his cereal for the fiber, not the toy.
Dad's mind not only wanders; sometimes it leaves completely.
If dad can remain calm, he just doesn't have all the facts.
Son: Dad, I just got a part in the school play of a man who's been married 20 years.
Dad: That's great, son. One day you'll get a speaking part.
Joe just got his drivers license. He was going to take his family for a ride. Dad climbed into the back seat.
Joe: Guess you want a change of scenery after years of sitting in the front seat.
Dad: Nope. I just wanted to sit here and kick the back of the seat the way you've been doing all these years.
Dad: Have you had your homework marked yet?
Son: Yes, but I'm afraid that you didn't do very well!

It's been forever. I was a child. It's time to let go... My dad would want me to remember him, but not mourn... and start living...
