Wow, I kind of wish I’d read LJ before I sent you the email I just sent you. Don’t be weirded out, none of them really look like your dad, they’re just wearing his outfit.

Oh, bizarre! I totally thought that was just you, complimenting my Dad on his hotness when he was in his 20s! 🙂
Seriously, though, that e-mail is awesome. I am so entering.
What a strange brainshare moment.
Alas, my dad is only 60, and not even one quarter as awesome as your dad is in that pic.
Such a great photograph! Uncle J is totally rockin’ that outfit. Wish him a happy birthday from me, too, please!
Also: I am now seeing that you not only inherited skinny legs from yo’ mama, but from yo’ papa, too. ;p
Mine’s turning 81 on Sunday… I have a photo of him in uniform too, and he looks so young and so much like all of his sons, it’s scary!
46. Best wishes to your pops!
Not exactly my dad but I have a photo of my grandfather in paratrooper jump training when he was 18 or 19 for the big WWII. The resemblance between he and I in it freaks people out. Will post sometime.
he’s adorable.
mine’s 55
Awww, he’s just a baby! My dad could be your dad’s dad! 🙂
Thanks for the birthday wishes! I look forward to the photo of your grandpa – I’ve got a wicked one of my grandad boxing with his brother that I think I’ll post on the anniversary of his death (or maybe his birthday).
Your dad is very young! I know you’re younger than me, but good gracious he started a family early. Makes me feel like a late bloomer.
Eighty-one! Woot! I hope your Dad had a good birthday yesterday. I know it’s tough that they’re so far away from you, and all the other stuff you’re going through I relate to very strongly as well, of course.
*hugs*
Hey! Sorry, I didn’t realize you had a LiveJournal until just this weekend and I see you’ve actually been writing in it for several months now. D’oh. I’ve added you to my f-list. As for talking about Dads, I just read back through some of your entries and realized that you have joined the parental ranks. Congratulations on your little one!
LOL, that’s no problem at all. It’s funny, I was telling that it was several weeks of reading his before I realized just who you were! I kept looking at the picture and saying, “i KNOW that person.” Then one morning it clicked 🙂
Thanks for the add, and yes, I am a daddy. Dawn and I are living in Oakville, down the street from where I grew up. Email me offline (benjamin.metcalfe@cantire.com) and I will send you some more pictures of us 🙂
Yes he’s ACTUALLY 45 right now and will be 46 in September. Go dad!…??? Moms’ is 47. Little by little the world will know the family history. Those lovable bunch of weirdos.
