datzenmike Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 A word of advice:Enjoy your Dad while you can. Absolutely true Bill ... X2. I never had a really close relationship with my dad or mom. They were always there and I gave little thought to it. I had an argument with my mom and stormed out, never speaking to them for 7 years. In that time she passed away and I never saw her again. All I remember is the night I left. I would call my brother every couple of years and this is how I found out. Some good did come of this though. I called my dad up right then and we talked. When holiday time came around I drove three thousand miles to visit him and every other year after that. For the next 10 years we talked on the phone almost every week and grew to love an appreciate him in my life. I am so thankful for that. So send a card or e card on his computer or just call him up. I only had ten years you probably have more so don't waste them. Quote Link to comment
dennis Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 X3 I stopped speaking with my father and refused to talk to him till he apologized for something he had done to me. My sister told me he was almost ready to apologize and he died in a car accident. On another note, I hope to get the whole day to work on my 510 with at least one of my kids. Quote Link to comment

MicroMachinery Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Cruisin' the Datto up to Dad's on Sunday. He bought a showroom floor 521 back in 1972, and 35 years later passed it down to me; my first Datsun. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 I dont know what to do for my dad....he's not into datsuns....or anything really.... :unsure: You don't have to do anything... Take him out for brunch and tell him about your goon or Canby or Kelly ... anything. What you are giving him is a little of your time and he gets to keep a memory of that. I think that's way better than a card or a tie, if you know what I mean. You may learn a little about what he is into for next year and talk about it then. Quote Link to comment
Pumpkn210 Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 That is so true Mike! I happen to remember that a certain 2 Ratsunners won an award for thier accomplishments! Maby talk about that! ;) Quote Link to comment
Jassifrass Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 well i work for my dad and live with him....it might be a better present to avoid him for the day... and when i was showing him the pictures of canby he just walked off... :( Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 well i work for my dad and live with him....it might be a better present to avoid him for the day... got cha! and when i was showing him the pictures of canby he just walked off... :( I was going to say what a dick! but this doesn't solve anything. He sounds .... bitter. All I can say is to gently keep trying. Quote Link to comment
Jassifrass Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 well he was looking at them for a min then in the middle of it just turned around and walked off...he is a dick really. I deal with it but i'm glad to be quitting my job at the end of this month. Classes start monday and they're monday and wednesday so 4 days total left of working for him. Thats a step in the right direction anyways. on a happier note when i was little i used to make him breakfast in bed for fathers day....and a huge mess :P Maybe i'll just make him breakfast in general Quote Link to comment
elmerfudpucker Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 I will call my grandfather (who I consider my dad) and wish him well. :D Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 If it weren't for the things my dad showed me (and made me do) I would not have been able to take a car apart, put it back together, and have it work again. Hell, I wouldn't even have tried. If my dad were still around, I'd tell him I love him and spend the day drinkin beers and tellin bad jokes with him. Quote Link to comment
