On second thought, I say do it. Or you'll always wonder.

Eh, probably not. The last time I've seen him I had a brief conversation with him when I was 16. But it did make me think the stories he was telling were pretty cool and it'd be nice to know SOMETHING about his life. He still has ties to the area and he owned bars with my uncle so it wouldn't be too difficult to get ahold of him.

It's only been 14 years. (you're 30). That's not so long. I understand the apprehension, but maybe he'd like to have a relationship and doesn't know how to approach you.

Mostly I think I heard it at the supermarket.

Do they even have radios in Kansas? :P

Speaking from the Dads perspective, it's scary to re-establish ties with a child once a certain period of time has passed. How do you say "I'm sorry" ? How could you EVER make it up to your child? (regardless of the reason you might have had for not being there.) Even worse, imagine if you felt, (rightly or wrongly) that the mother played a large part in that separation, what do you do, tell the child " your mother was a *****?"

I know I'm biased, speaking only from my own experience, but if your Dad is willing, give it a shot.

Yes, ive thought about it thru the years and I'm sure I would have felt different if my mother never remarried, or ended up with someone different, but as it was, I never really had a reason to worry about it, or really care. It never upset me either. Like I said, it just weird/cool hearing some stories about him for about the first time in my life. And I will be telling the Hendrix story a lot this weekend. This guy even told me my dad rode them around in his car around town, until he had to drive to pittsburgh to pick him up at the airport.

Without question. I've found this to be true for egg salad and grilled cheese, especially.

Also, a clean car (exterior and interior, but def. exterior) runs much better and rides much smoother on long trips.

Fact: Grilled cheese is most dunkable when cut in triangles.

Kind of my point. His gf was our Dd so now I'm DD which makes that irritating plus not hanging out with him is irritating too. Not to mention were at some yuppie bar lol
