Dad

"Being a father is the best thing in the world and whatever's second isn't close."
Larry King

Am I showing my age to quote King. I had the greatest Springsteen concert ever ( and that's a lot) taking Zachary. We scored less than face ga tickets the day of the show in Pgh. and won the lottery. If you don't know what that means, shame on you.

I haven't cried in public since Sid Bream but this was awesome. During Badlands I kept noticing how he looked over his shoulder to make sure he was pumping his fist right. Wow. The whole show was a "walk like a man" scenerio. The highlight of course was Bruce taking his sign during the request section and later playing Thunder Road, the song I had sung to him nearly every day of his for 5 years and still pull out every now and then.

Poor guy was hanging and nearly dead on his feat by 11 but had to hang to see his hero Joe.

Best night of my life, ever by far.
