By MAD21

There is a lot of funny stuff out there on the web about mom's and kids, and every now and then something good and funny comes along about being a dad. And I found a great one last week. Enjoy:

Life Is Funny: Rewind

By MAD21

Even though the TV is not a dominate force in our household, the power of TIVO has definitely had an influence on our lives. We had evidence of this last Monday evening.

Driving along in the car on the way to soccer practice, our oldest daughter spotted horses at a farm on her side of the car. As is often the case, our youngest didn't see the horses because we had already gone by.

In her frustration to see what her sister had pointed out, she calls up to the front seat, "Daddy? Could you please hit rewind?"

If only we could...

I hope I'm not the only one who has trouble forming proper sentences when shocking things happen. Things like being a passenger in a car when the driver doesn't realize the cars in front of us have stopped. Instead of saying something coherent like, "Hey! Hit the brakes, the cars have stopped!"

Each year apparently has a different variety, there are the "every 2-years," and the "every 17-years," etc. All I know is that we have them "every year." They don't bite or sting or anything, but the ick-factor is very high, at least for me. They are like gigantic grasshoppers on steroids.

Life Is Funny: Is This Forever?

By MAD21

I am going for a test procedure today that requires me to go under anesthesia. I'm not a fan of not being in control of myself. In the past I have woken up asking the same questions over and over again, or saying silly things. Once I remember telling the nurse that was helping me, "I liiike you." Ugh. As my family sits here and makes jokes at my expense, offering to video me this time (to which I emphatically said, NO WAY!), I think of this poor kid whose father decided he needed to share his son's experience after a visit to the dentist:
