Wow it is Father's day, my dad past away wow 9 years now...I miss him he taught me who I didn't want to be in life, and that is like him. My Fiance's dad who past away a year ago in April taught me more that I could have hoped have learned, Thanks Tony I really do miss you.  When ever I look at what you have given me...the most important your daughter what can I say somehow Thanks just doesn't cover it but it is all I can do right now. Just don't be drinkin' all the Mead in Asgard or we will have words when I get there.lol

However this isn't a day of mourning I have two other dads out there my Aikido dad; Allen Sensei, and my Judo Dad Sensei DeVore.  Damn I really wished I had paid attention to all the lessons you two tried like hell to teach me, and we parted ways before all the lessons were even taught but thanks to you two I am a better person today than I was yesterday. Though it may be evident most of the time my feelings toward Martial Arts may be ummm "Less than Stellar" rest assured they are not and everyday I remember something you all taught me and it makes me a better person.

All in all to all my fathers the ones mentioned and the countless others like DI Kelley, DI Keener, My BCT dads that took care of me during my stint at the school of Hard Knox and others that came along at that needed time and filled a void in my life.  I thank you for your effort and your attempt to mold me into something I have yet to realize....but getting there slowly...lol  Happy Father's Day.
