Fathers Day

Union Gap Old Town Days is an excellent celebration. There is so much to do on June 18 at Fulbright Park. The Celebration kicks off at 10 a.m. with the Union Gap Old Town Days parade on Main Street and First.

Here we go! Starting this week, another season of Downtown Summer Nights is set to fill your Thursday evenings with music and laughter all summer! The food will be excellent and so will the drinks! It all starts again this Thursday (June 16) from 5:30-9 p.m. at our new location -- Front Street.

Traditionally, Father's Day is kind of treated as a 'throwaway' holiday. It's a day where you honor your father for all he has done for you. This usually means he gets a new necktie and a homemade certificate for a free massage. But this year Father's Day fell on the same day as my daughter's ballet performance.

Happy Father's Day yesterday to all the fathers and sons who are fathers, too. Taking time off the air to spend some time with my son and my dad on Father's Day!

The term coined is "gone viral."  This is an example that I stumble

In a poll that we didn’t even know was being conducted, Eminem was voted the Most Popular Celeb Dad by “social network aggregator Starcount.” Now, had we known this even existed, we probably would have exhausted our efforts to make Eminem No. 1 simply because of the fact we’re still harboring all sorts of crushes on him. It’s that bad boy thing. Whatevs.

My wife very casually asked me, the other day, what I wanted for Father's Day. I answers in my typical fashion, "you don't need to get me anything for Father's Day." I was telling the truth.
