Father's Day is the most terrifying day of the year at the Robinson house. My survival is a tribute to my rugged physique and genetic good health and I will depend on those blessings this coming Sunday.
My own father had it easy. He had 10 kids but he smoked a pipe and each year he could look forward to getting 10 tins of Granger Rough cut tobacco.
