Go ask your mother. You'd argue with a fence post. When you pay the bills, you can make the rules. Anything worth doing is worth doing well. Another day, another dollar. these and 289 more bits of wisdom, advice, and instruction make The Portable Father a book that will bring back many warm, funny memories of childhood. For most of us, Dad always seemed to be the biggest and most wonderful person we knew, looming almost larger than life. As the man who protected and loved us, he was also the source of wisdom we just knew must be important. Now that we're grown and gone and Dad can't be with us all the time, The Portable Father allows us to take him with us wherever we go.
