Me and my brother used to play on our driveway for the Stanley Cup all the time when we were kids. I was talking to my dad (Thursday). Now I’m here. This just adds to...

I’m older now than my dad was when he was my age. Wait, that’s not right. That’s not my dad at all, that’s just some stranger hanging around in my memory.

The memory slowly faded away. I could feel tears strolling down my snout from my eyes. I missed my father… He did what he could to save me that day.

They fuck you up, your mum and dad? No, that wasn’t it at all. Well, they did do that, perhaps, but they also allowed you to become the person, and the writer, that you had...

Just to show my dad that I think he’s number one, I bought him a urinal cake for his birthday.

We fell in love like two medium pizzas in one large stomach. I wish dad would have saved a few slices for us.

She loved him, even though it was so hard to love anybody else after loving my dad. I think I knew this before she did.

In a proud fatherly sadomasicisticly way, I am thrilled when I get hit. As every deep purple bruise on my body represented a perfect swing. If I were to lift my shirt at any time...

My mom and dad died, but in their place I got a house of fog that’s easy to hide my feelings in. (No smoking, please.)

I found out who my real dad is on Facebook. I also found out who he isn’t. He isn’t the man I thought he isn’t.

It made a big difference in my life to grow up with a dad who wasn’t afraid of how great my mom was.

I told my father I was his dad. But I lied. He’s adopted.

Before you and your spouse can work as a team raising your children, you must first work as a team in your marriage.

Be more than a father, be a dad. Be more than a figure, be an example.

King of Prussia.

Instructions for Dad.I don’t want to go into a fridge at an undertaker’s. I want you to keep me at home until the funeral. Please can someone sit with me in case I got lonely?...
