I have to work tomorrow (bummer).But after that I will be able to spend some time with all of my kids, 2 of which will be flying in from California for the week. So it's all good.In honor of Fathers everywhere I'm offering 4 stakes to the usual STBP $4.40 180 SNG. (50/50 no SB)Tell me why you appreciate your Father, or why you appreciate being a Father.HAPPY FATHER'S DAY YOU MOTHERS!

I like being a father to two young girls, 1. There brilliant 2. There a great leveler 3. When you go to theme parks swimming pools etc etc you get to go on all the cool rides because you have to help the kids on and off :-) Nah my two year old made me a card in nursery this week, first thing she ever made there was so sweet

Kids are amazing when they are young. It's scary knowing that they depend on you for everything. But the joy, curiosity and innocence are truly inspiring.First stake to Gaffer.

While I no longer get to smoke pot, I do have 2 smaller versions of myself who love to eat ice cream at random hours and watch cartoons non-stop.So 2 out of 3 ain't bad. ;)No stake needed, gl to the horsies.

The older I get, the more I start listening to the 70's AM Gold genre that my dad had on vinyl when I was gorwing up. And the more I realize he lucked out far more than me in musical era. Don't get me wrong, I loved the Seattle Grunge era, but it's all been a steaming turd since that, really...And even disco-era pop is 1000x greater than what assaults your eardrums when you turn on the stereo in this day and ago.Yeah, I'm 29 and ready to scream at kids to get off my lawn..

I think this would be a good time for my first, and hopefully only "that's what SHE said" ever.

As a guitarist, I would have to say that my dad's love of classic rock (where guitar was so prominent) really influenced my playing. Without that, I doubt I'd be half the player I am today.Better?

My dad said that we shouldn't get him anything because he doesn't believe in the concept of fathers day(or for that matter mothers/valentines/halloween), is it bad that I took him at his word and did nothing?
