Father's Day Wrap-Up

Ok, last Dad's Day post, I promise. (But keep in mind that crossing my fingers behind my back nullifies any and all aforementioned promises.)

Then there are the less complimentary messages, though I'm sure they were just as heartfelt. Really.

* Yes, I know it's supposed to be a fish. So don't go pulling a "Spaceship Earth" on me, hear?
