Many a night Dad relaxed in his favorite chair. Many a time he kicked me out of it.Once, I resisted his efforts to oust me and engaged him in a short-lived battle over Dad's Chair. I lost. To this day, I believe the incident marks the only time in history that two grown men broke out into a fight while watching a feel-good Frank Capra movie.Years later, Dad explained why that old recliner was so important to him. He told me that when he sat in that chair, all of life's personal and professional pressures and obligations were kept at bay. He felt at peace in that old recliner. It was even there for him when he started his long, seven-year battle against ALS."A father's chair is an island in the chaotic ocean of life," he told me.Now that I too have a family and a career, I know Dad's words are true. The stories in this book are organized around that quote. Some of them are about the island; others, about the ocean. And then there are a few that just aim to make you laugh.Settle into your favorite chair, and enjoy.
