Great. Never heard that. Learn something new everyday.
BTW, children born in Korea are already 1 year old. Not sure of other countries.

On the Father's Day Note:
"A father is a guy who has snapshots in his wallet where his money used to be."

From your page, BF.
Top 50 Quatations for Father's Day (http://www.chiff.com/a/fathers-day-quotes.htm)
"A new father quickly learns that his child invariably comes to the bathroom at precisely the times when he's in there, as if he needed company. The only way for this father to be certain of bathroom privacy is to shave at the gas station."

Good kids Darth! Re-read the book then started on the DVDs. Still on DVD 3 cos I keep going back to the book to cross-check who is who. I've watched it on TV twice from end to end and once.

For Father's day, got to run the eldest daughter and two friends to an outdoor concert at 9:30am in Cardiff Castle, back to pick up the son for life-guards at 11am (only two months to his driving test - whooopeeeeee). Back to bed to read the papers and play with my presents. A Namco game thingy you plug in the TV, (Pac-Man, Galaxians, Rally-X, DigDug and Bosconian, Like being back in the Cosy Cafe circa 1981!!!!!). Also got loads of golf stuff off the son, so I think he's hinting he wants to come out for a few rounds.

It's great to be a father with some great kids. Now if I can get the grandkids to not run over me so hard. They know all my buttons and manage to push them all, sometimes at once:eek: .
Wouldn't trade them for anything though.:naughty:
