"Yeah, I know what you mean Dad."

My dad was the kind of person that was so involved in so many things, that it must have been hard to keep track of all the little details in everything.
I think, his first date with then girlfriend Joan was to see Bob Newhart do a comedy routine. For weeks leading up to it, he would tell John and I he was going to see Bob Hope. "Didn't he pass away, like years ago? What venue is he playing at? I might want to see that."
A friend of mine got married in Las Vegas, a renaissance wedding at Excaliber. I dressed up as "The Dread Pirate Roberts" from "The Princess Bride". He went around telling everyone I was going as someone from "The Princess Diary".
"Yeah, I know what you mean Dad. Thanks."
