Thank you Domino..yes, I usually wouldn't say it, but yes after the year this has been, I deserve it, and the 2 people who have held me up most are my wife and my son..I don't know how he does it..

supposedly my "step" kids (I consider them my kids to but occasionally have to separate them...and they consider me their Dad) have some big deal cooked up for
Father's day.

Yes, Totsie, I have a GREAT son..he is my first and I wouldn't trade all the minutes from the day he was born for anything...we've always been close and he's been there for methis last year and I don't know what I'd do without him...I guess we're taking care of each other.  I'm so very proud of him, and love him more than anything. and I love my wife more than anything for bringing him up here again...just wish he could bring the kids.

it's great because last year he and my wife arranged to suprise me by flying him and he had 2 tickets for Bruce in Foxboro, MA as a belated Bday gift..Man, was I shocked, and she also arranged for me to fly back with him for a week. which was great spent some great time with him, my grand children his wife, and little did I know, my last visit with my youngest son.

Despite a thunderstorm that held up the start of the show for an hour, The Boss played his usual 3 hour show and it was the greatest concert I've ever been to..So, I'm looking forward to seeing him again, 2 nights in a row, especially with my wife and son.
