My friends and their Dads

Dawn was telling me the other day about something her dad had said to her and i was crying i was laughing so hard. I then decided to write a blog about my friends and their fathers.

So Dawn was having a conversation with her mother about marriage and children. She was telling her mom that she was approaching 30 and decided it was too late to have babies. At this point her father walks in and is terribly upset that Dawn has decided she no longer wants children. (They already have 3 grandchildren but all are boys)Dawn tries to explain to him that she's almost 30 and does not even have a boyfriend at this time in her life. Her dad then exclaims "you don't need a man, that's what sperm banks are for, go get a sperm doner." Her mom starts yelling and Dawn is appalled because he is absolutely serious. She tells me this story over dinner and i almost spit my iced tea all over her. Priceless.....

Melissa's dad is the most unlucky man i have ever met. It never fails that each time he purchases anything, anything at all, something is wrong with the item. Here is the list that i can recall off the top of my head. Melissa can refresh my memory when i speak to her next and i'll add to the list.

*He bought a package of socks, buy 10 get one pair free. His package did not contain the free pair.

*He was buying running shoes, tried on the left shoe and purchased them. When he got home and went to put them on, he realized the holes had not been punched into where the laces go on the right shoe so he could not lace them up.

*He purchased a great big tool box that he had to assemble himself in the basement. Once it was all put together he realized that his tool box did not contain the keys needed to lock the drawers.

*He bought a go-cart type of toy for his grandson. When they opened the box at the birthday party, the whole go-cart was smashed to pieces.

*He purchased a package of underwear size large. Inside however, all of the underwear were size small.

*He bought a ford truck, they were trying to send out recalls for a new paint job and his recall did not show up to his house until after the recall had expired.

*He was drinking a pop at Swiss Chalet when the whole bottom fell out of the bottom of the glass thus pouring pop all over his lap.

*He bought a digital cable box that was defective.

*He ordered an appetizer at Boston Pizza for his meal and the waiter brought him something completely different.
