My Dad was a jokester. He knew how much I love persimmons. One day we were driving down the road and he told me to pull over. He asked if I saw those orange balls on a tree in the woods. He said those are wild persimmons, why don't you go out and grab yourself some. So I run into the woods and was so excited I just popped one into my mouth and started chewing. Damn near choked to death on the side of the road while he sat in the car laughing his arse off. I sure do miss him.

Funny stuff.....they are terrible when they aint ready to eat.

You're Dad may not be around physically but he is obviously present in your heart and thoughts...take solace in that. It ain't perfect but you can always "visit" when you need a dose of Dad.
