Homer J. Simpson

So the Simpsons has been on television since I was a teenager. One of the episodes that cracks me up centers around a birthday gift purchase Homer made for his wife Marge. For her birthday, Homer purchased a bowling bowl... not a terribly awful gift. The kicker is instead of engraving her name on the ball, he lovingly places the name Homer on the ball. Now I have had some Homer gifts in the past and it always makes me think of this episode.

Today, I asked Miles what we should get his dad for Father's Day. My son replies, "I think dad really wants another legos game for the Wii or a new DS". I guess Homer sleeps upstairs in the body of a my soon to be seven year old...
