Ethan and I had a really great conversation while we were cleaning the house this evening.  He asked me a lot of questions about gods and goddesses and spirituality and imperialism and history.  He said he was glad he has a smart, educated father and not an idiot father.  That was nice to hear.

_{I've been blessed with that sort of father too. He's had more of an impact on my mind than anybody.}

That's awesome, in the traditional sense of the word :)

That's a Father's Day card if I've ever heard one.

"On this Father's Day, I'd like to thank you, Dad..."
"...For being a fucking moron."

That's sort of an Anti-Father's day Card.

That second line meant to read: "...For not being a fucking moron."

Negatives are so often overlooked when I'm typing, and they are deadly mistakes, as you noted.

I thought that's what you meant, but I wouldn't dare to presume ;)

It's always good to know you're not an idiot. I get the impression that my son is pleased he has parents taht he can discuss that kind of stuff with. I'm sure we'll do our share of embarassing and shaming him at some point, though, cause it's the law. :)

ps. OT: How do you turn a full-size photo into a non-smooshy icon? I'd like to make one of him but don't know what to do exactly. When I try resizing it goes all wonky. You've got mad skills, so I'm asking you.

I keep warning him that if he misbehaves or gets bad grades, I'm going to go to his parent-teacher conferences dressed Ed Grimly :P

If you want to email me or comment me the picture, I'll icon it for you. It really depends on the program. Photoshop is good for non-smooshiness. It also depends on the origin picture and a ton of other factors. Come programs just suck at shrinking pictures.
