We all KNOW that “Dad” is not me, but I will tell you that this comic (script) is inspired by a true story! You might say that “Dad” has a handicap when it comes to golfing! Have fun fishing for balls!

Concert Series: Tenacious D
This past summer was a GREAT summer for concerts. This was the second time I saw Tenacious D with my boys. We had so much fun and they were so much fun…the boys AND Tenacious D! Enjoy these highlights.
We Talked #Politics at #DadChat
Duh, it’s political season and this time there’s a sort of important election going on. How do we talk to our kids about politics was our topic at #DadChat Thursday, October 18 from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PT/9:00 – 10:00 p.m. ET. To many, politics is almost a religion. Do we proselytize about it to our family? Should we? Should we give a fair and balanced point of view on the issues and candidates? What impact do you believe this election will have on OUR KIDS? We talked #politics – Read the transcript.
Dad Loves Musical Theater
As you all know, I write these comics and the wonderful Michael Voogd (VoogDesigns) draws them. There is absolutely NO resemblance between “Dad” and me, of course, though occasionally I do lift story ideas from my life. My son loves musicals and his Drama Club at school is putting on “Sweeney Todd,” so this is a tribute to the Oak Park High School Drama club and my son, Aaron Sallan!
Special Moment Songs and Rock ‘N’ Roll at #DadChat
My son in front of the Rock 'N' Roll Hall of Fame and the title inspiration for my next book!
Don’t we all have those songs that bring back good (and bad memories)? The songs we listened to in high school, those we loved when we first fell in love, and so many others we associate with high and low points in our lives. Jason Ramsey co-hosted Thursday’s #DadChat, October 11 from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PT/9:00 – 10:00 p.m. ET. Read the transcript and enjoy all we shared.

Twitter Communication: Communicating on #Twitter Effectively (and Preventing Hurt or Disappointment)
As most of you know, I’m a very bashful guy: the shy, retiring, quiet sort who doesn’t share his feelings or opinions. I wish. My personality gets me into occasional trouble, IRL. I also can occasionally put my foot in it online via a Tweet, email, or comment. BUT, twitter IS the most dangerous one of them all, for you and me!
