Happy Fathers Day, first to my Dad, who is recuperating from the surgery I blogged about earlier this month. Looking forward to seeing him during vacation time.
I received two cool cards, one from wifey, one from the kids and the cats. Rachel wrote the message, while Robbie chimed in with a reminder of his latest thing that makes him laugh.....
....the midget leprechaun on WWE Smackdown. Only my son would put something like that in my Father's Day card. I loved it.

USA Network is in need of help in the closed-captioning department. Tonight during two (more!!) of my wife's TV shows, closed-captioning was, well, somewhat unreliable, shall we say. The best "mistakes" were:
1) Lowe's----says you get six months free financing with a purchase of $299 or more.
----CC reads you get six months free financing with a purchase of $9 or more.
2) Hershey's----CC created a Reader's Digest condensed version of their name:
"hehey"

As dominating as Carolina was in game two of the Stanley Cup Finals, they were dominated by Edmonton in game six Saturday night. It was sad to watch. And Erik Cole's return from a broken neck made no difference. Well, at least game seven is in Raleigh tomorrow night. Who takes it? The young, hungry team, or the veteran, tested team?
They all want to win the Cup. Will those who have played 6, 8, 10, 14 years without holding it have enough, or will the youthful legs of Edmonton do what they've seemed to do since the start of overtime in game five---which is skate so fast they make the Hurricanes look like they're standing still.
Through it all, GO HURRICANES!!!!

UPDATED CLOSED-CAPTION:
Heard----"Why didn't you go to the police?"
Read-----"Why didn't you go to the pole?"

Went into the pool for the first time this season; me and the kids hanging out, laughing and having fun. It was so nice. It's already in the 90s here. I fear a long, hot summer. I crave long hours in air-conditioned locations. :)

And finally, my best friend at work is on vacation this week, so things just won't be the same. May her and her family have an awesome week! The Withams are T-minus three weeks from Friday from their first vacation with all four Withams in four years.
I hope the foundation of our home doesn't crack in light of the shocking news. :)
