Too funny, Jody. I can’t even imagine myself trying to cut anyone’s hair. Kudos to Mark for pulling it off.

And sorry to hear about your Dad’s throat cancer. It sounds like your parents are quite the pair, though. It honestly reminds me of Raymond’s parents on Everybody Loves Raymond. Too funny.

And on a side note: my dad was diagnosed with the same thing a few years ago, and thankfully, all is well today. I’m sure your Dad will fight the good fight as well.

Oh Lordy, Jody! I am still LMAO about this. My parents are older, too – in their early 80’s and I find that there are whole conversations that sound just like what your dad wrote.

I’m actually not a gun nut. I love MY guns, but don’t really care about anyone else’s. (OK, the $120,000 shotguns I saw at the Beretta store in Manhattan were pretty sweet… But, still.)

Good call on your advice to your mom! Let us know how that goes…

Tonya, You have no idea just how much of a character my Dad is.

Patty, Yes it does make you wonder.

NorCal, Of all my readers I thought for sure you would be more interested in the Colt. lol I told my Mom to feed him peanuts tomorrow like he feeds the squirrels.

Thanks so much for sharing Jody! Makes me wonder what my husband and I will be like when we hit that mark. Love your sense of humor!!!!

On a more serious note, my thoughts and prayers are with your dad and your m-i-l for a speedy recovery.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
