Well, we’ve missed you, too! I’ll bet your daughters are just gorgeous now!....as they were when they were younger.

They could do very well if they were to use their bodies for short cash, but they aren't that dumb.

I'm not an easy dad to have, but I am very well repsected by 75% of my kids, about 90% of their friends, and about 100% of those kids parents.

I have NO problem buying a seasons pass to six flags for the poor kids my kids have, and I love to load my exploder full when we go to Six Flags.

Keep em' busy, keep em happy!

I think I spent more money on fishing poles for kids in Abbies grade that couldn't buy their own stuff (dead dads, scumbag parenst, etc) than i have spent on my own fishing gear this year. No, I KNOW I have, by about 4 times. :)

I call that an investment.

Besides, this way, i always get good reconnaisance that my kids are behaving or not.
