Barbie World + love

Padres.

Fathers are pretty neat, don't you think?

They buy junk food at the grocery store.

They pretend to enjoy your terrible music blasting through their car speakers at 7 AM (seventh-grade Carrie had a particular soft spot for Welcome to Atlanta and Pass the Courvoisier).

They make mean Hamburger Helper dinners.

They try to braid your hair when your mom is out of town. They succeed!!!

They are totally cool in their absolute uncoolness. They attempt to pull off Michael Jackson arm movements when they try on golf gloves, for example. You can't fake that kind of swagger, yinz.

So, a day late and several (so, so many) dollars short... thanks Dad. And kudos to all the dads I know. You're the best!

So is this video. Check it.
