Father's Day

Having no experience as a father is one of the great vacuums in my life. I occasionally regret this but usually when I do, the gods present me with an opportunity to watch dysfunctional families at work and I feel relief to have escaped such a fate. I used to think of my work as my children but that's a silly game that doesn't last into old age. Circumstances just worked out in such a way that I never engaged the role of parent. We non-parents are a minority class.

However, I do have two god sons, Dick's sons, that I've known almost all their lives. This is nice but it's not the same thing.
