Things To Do This Week.

Get The Jump On Your 6/16 – 6/22 Plans.

Because today is Father's Day, you're most likely feeling tempted to spend some time with the old man today.

So you'll try to take him to grab a bite to eat or maybe out to catch a ballgame. And, of course, he'll happily go along with whatever plans you force upon him. Because, like all good dads, he'll realizes somewhere deep down that you're trying to do a nice thing for him.

But let's face it: All dad really wants today is to have the house completely to himself so that he can watch golf on TV, drink a beer in peace, nap for hours, and basically do anything other than housework, listening to nagging or participating in any conversation in which he might have to feign emotion.

So why don't you just leave him alone today.

As for you, well, there's plenty else going on around town to keep you busy.
