Ouch - I've had a few of them in my time - nasty things, but (dis)honourable wounds!

Well since I'm flying solo today, I've decided that what I want to do is the following itinerary:

Eat some fresh spring rolls, something curry flavored on rice at a Thai restaurant
See Star Trek Into Darkness
Browse electronics at Best Buy
Attempt to win the freaking Getting Started scenario in First World War squad battles game.  I've gotten so close to a victory only to be denied.

Installing 'Fall of the Samurai' at this very moment........ooh, the exitement!!!!

Just been given a copy of 'Fall of the Samurai" by my youngest son - ta very much.

Now he wants to do some Shogun 2 MP so that he teach his old pop how to play.......

Yeah, right! (rolls sleeve's up).
Awesome!  I'd say you definitely raised your kid right.  ;)

Whereas my step-kid said nothing to me all-day (related to the Father's Day), and my 9 year-old son didn't wish me a Happy Father's Day until around 5:30 pm!!   :o ::) :P  Then, later (after supper) he gave me a couple of rocks from his collection, along with a hand-written card, $1, and one of his Batman drawings.
Any time is a good time for pie.

Okay, that's pretty damn cute.

Yeah.  But he's not too damned happy that I accepted his Batman drawing!  He asked me if he could hang onto it a little longer.

I was wondering which gift was more difficult for him to part with -- the drawing, or the rocks.  ;)
