I'm in the Bay Area, flew down here yesterday to surprise my dad for Fathers Day. Yes, it worked - he was suspicious I think, but he was surprised.

I've had calls today from a number of my "other" kids, and that's truly made my day. I'm lucky to have all these great people in my life. I'm not worthy. But I'm grateful.

Oh, and here are some links for dads and their kids, for your amusement and entertainment. Dads, use these to amaze your kids - they'll make you a "cool" dad, for sure.

Visions Of Uhh Something - Cool optical illusion trick that will make them freak.
Buy these T-Shirts together - "Geek - Son of Geek" shirts for dads and sons.
The Sith Sense - Vader will read your mind - Star Wars and interactive 20 questions, fun fun fun.
Creative Windows Error Messages - Geek out with the kids (but review the web site linked for PG-13 or other content before clicking).
For the guys only - write your name in the snow - You gotta admit, this one is addictive. And it's funny. And it's cool.
Subservient Chicken - Self-explanatory, or if not, click the link because you're missing something important.
Subservient Stickman - Because every good internet phenomenon needs a sarcastic, sick sequel.

  • Scariest Damn Thing I Ever Heard - You can save this one for when the holiday music starts later in the year. We all need a good one on standby for our arsenal.
