For the pops

Today is the third Sunday of June, which means Father's Day in the US (and about 75 other countries). It also means stupid commercials for smartphones, grills, cars, lawn mowers, and various power tools, featuring a plethora of gender stereotypes that should have stayed in the 1950s.

Anyway. My own dad is probably not seeing this as he is currently enjoying one of his favorite activities: sailing with my mum. I wish you fair winds and following seas, pappa!

And just to conclude, some wonderful Hallmark Father's Day wisdom: “Happy Father’s Day to the man who taught me how to step and throw, how to field a grounder, how to follow through and pretty much every other important thing I know about baseball and living!”

Yeah.
