Cool Story

A story that was told about a year ago by Aaron Karo (www.aaronkaro.com): When my dad met with my biology teacher, he noticed pictures on the wall of everyone in the class at a field trip we had taken a few weeks earlier. Pictures of everyone except for me. When he came home, he told me we had to talk. I was scared out of my mind. He asked me why I missed the school field trip. I said to him, "Dad, I have to level with you. I cut school that day and took the train to the city to watch the Yankees World Series victory parade." I'll never forget his response. "Son," he said, "This is the proudest moment of my life."

Now that's a good dad.
