Best Dads

No, sorry, Folks, this is not going to be a gush-fest about my dad.  This is about dads we all know and love.  TV dads. I used to be a TV addict.  In fact, before I was married, my outgoing message on my answering machine said, “Sorry, I can’t come to the phone right now.  [...]

My Favorite Movie is on TV!

My daughter just shouted those words earlier today.  Her favorite movie is “Three Amigos,” by the way.  And, it has been for several years.  She’s ten.  We bought her the DVD for her birthday about five years ago.  Yep.  Some girls think “High School Musical” revolutionized the movie industry.  Or, when they were five, they [...]
