Re: Examples of why your dad is/was awesome
To get this thread back on track,
My parents got divorced when I was in high school. My mom kept the house and my dad got a really [censored] apartment about 20 minutes away. My dad drove to my house every morning to take me to school. And the drive from my house to the school was only about 5 minutes.

Re: Examples of why your dad is/was awesome
My dad was on the cover of our County Paper for being the leader of a Drug Manufacturing/Distributing Ring he and his brother's ran. That's kinda cool.
And there were times when he and his brothers would come out of his room strapping on bulletproof vests and shoulder holsters, and carrying guns. Talking about "We gotta go collecting". That [censored] sounds kinda crazy, but it was cool too. (Note: I lived with my Mom so I got low doses of the craziness at that house.)

Re: Examples of why your dad is/was awesome
My dad has flown a dozen times or so on the KC-135, which simulates zero-gravity (micro for the nits). He took some TMNT action figures up there so I would have toys that had been in zero gravity. Now I'm not sure why having toys that floated in midair should mean anything but back then I thought it was awesome.

Re: Examples of why your dad is/was awesome
When I was in Boy Scouts and did the Pinewood Derby my dad got completely obsessed. Sure I didn't get to do much more than sanding, painting, and placing stickers ... but the special order wheels, graphite, and cleverly concealed hidden weights led me to go undefeated for like 3 years straight.

Re: Examples of why your dad is/was awesome
One day when my dad was drunk he put a Colt 45 to my chest and cocked it.
He was so drunk he could've actually missed.
