Have a Happy FADA's Day!

Next week is Father’s Day.

Generally speaking, most holidays are better as a child than as a parent. Christmas starts with a living room full of amazing toys brought to you by a mythical jolly man  and devolves into sneaking off into the garage late on Christmas Eve with a bottle of vodka so you can to “put together the presents” WITHOUT the help of your brother-in-law. Oh ... and Peace on Earth and Goodwill to all.

Halloween begins as a magical night filled with free candy with friends; becomes a festival of egging and toilet papering the homes of your enemies; and culminates with your special someone dressing up as a Naughty Snow White for a night out.  The very next year you are chasing your sugar infused kid thru a dark neighborhood while you’re wearing a Robin costume (because the little shit wanted to be Batman!).

Father’s Day breaks that mold.  It's no great joy as a child, but upon reaching fatherhood, you find out that handmade card and Best. Dad. Ever. t-shirt are about as much fun to give as the are to receive. Let's not call it a ‘Hallmark Holiday’ but on the Aweso-meter (™), Dad's Day would have to fall somewhere between Earth Day and National Administrative Assistant’s Day.

With all this in mind, here is this years FADA’s Day Gift Giving Guide for 2018:

1. Bottle of Knob;
2. A ride home.

As Dr. Tammi Lawrence likes to say in her traditional FADA Day toast, "Here’s to everyone of you mother fuckers."  That's the spirit!

Cannibal & Craft— 5:00 to 7:00

Next Friday is the very last FADA.  If you’re like Ken Kieklak and repeatedly say, “I’ll come one of these days,” today is your NEXT TO LAST SHOT! Don’t say you weren’t told.
