You know, it's funny....I find myself talking to him every day.

Now, I don't mean that I can actually hear him or anything like that, but sometimes I'll be out walking, and I'll just say something out loud, like:

"Hey Dad, what did you think about the Orioles game last night?"

or

"Hey Dad, you won't believe what happened to me....."

If he does reply, however, I'll be sure to let people know

Tim
