What’s with your father??!!
I think your father is going through an extended mid-life crisis!
I married a guy who owned a bar and enjoyed breaking his knuckles on an unruly drunk’s head, rode a motorcycle and could make a sailor blush with his language.
OK, it was not all that strange when he started drinking smoothies for breakfast.
It was strange enough a couple of years ago though, when he asked for a CD of Strauss waltzes for Christmas.
Shortly thereafter he asked to see an online photo of the famous “Last Supper” painting (Thank you, “Da Vinci Code”!!).
Tonight he insisted I read the review in the NY Timies of Helen Gurley Brown’s bio
Guess what he is doing right now – Watching a Barbra Streisand concert!
Help! “I married a Martian!”
Your puzzled mother


















perhaps more like, “I married a gay man!”

Mom, just be thankful that his mid life crisis doesn’t involve trying to recapture his youth by bedding younger women. This doesn’t sound so bad.

That’s my mom. I told her 1. he’s gay (actually, no way), and 2. It’s her turn to go drink, fight and ride a motorcycle.

This would make a great comedy. Imagine what his old buddies would say. Too funny!
