why my dad – whom i call bob (but he is still my real dad) – is a really cool dude: He listens to Green Day and Eminem He actually goes to see Green Day in concert He drove me to my first Grateful Dead concert in San Francisco (I was 15) and let my friends and I party without intruding He is the one who told me to put gum behind my ear (and then I fell asleep and got it tangled to the point that I had to cut it off) He (and my mother for that part) put up with me raging through my teenage years and putting them through a million sleepless nights He has perfected the art of ice cream making (for only about $400 per pint) He wastes more money on stupid shit than I do His dog is named Tivo He has a first generation Tivo that he has hacked for more storage He has his own blog He won the first NEC portable computer at Comdex in 1981 and got to take a photo with Dom Delouise He had a Compuserve account and a 2400 baud modem He knows what PHP is – and doesn’t get it confused with PCP He wears the same shirt every day (well, same make of Land’s End blue tshirt) because it is comfortable and he likes it He probably spends as much money as I do on iTunes He reads Harry Potter and tons of other interesting books He is smarter than all the people on Jeopardy He is a grumpy old bastard, but we still love him He has SkypeMe buttons on his website He is always online and talks to me every day on Skype He had sex with my Mom at least two times to produce my brother and myself He has been married to my mom for 45 years and still considers her his best friend BECAUSE HE IS MY POP – DAMN IT!
