What Day is Today?

Today is Father's Day! (Full House reference!)

I do believe this day is a gimmick, to an extent, for companies to make extra dollars, almost like a scam.

I do believe we should take time to celebrate fathers, or father figures.

As a rebuttal to my gimmick statement, the first Daddy's Day was believed to be celebrated in 1910 as a compliment to Mother's Day. Times were different then and it was probably not a day intended for businesses to money grub.

Father's Day really is not a scam, it is a nice excuse to go to ball game, have an extra beer and get fries with that hot dog/hamburger!


Gift Ideas (you should have gotten your gift already!)
1. Necktie- classic gift
2. Beer- well, duh!
3. Grill Accessories- You can't spell grill without "Hey dad, I love it when you grill".
