(29,967 posts)is very humorous. He would play board games & video games with me, go fishing, camping. More willing to do things while my mom never felt like doing anything with me. He would probably be an easy person to get a long with but does or did(haven't seen him in years) have a bad side. I remember one time when I was in the bathtub and I couldn't remember what I did wrong but grabbed my head and banged it against the wall. There was one time he was sleeping on the couch and I guess I woke up as he came towards me, tried to grab my hair but it was cut short so it was effective so he settled for a slap. In fact when my parents divorced when I was 3 or 4, they had split custody and was originally supposed to live with him. My brother to my mom, it didn't last long at all as someone called police on him for spanking me in the Safeway parking lot. I guess spanking isn't wrong depending on who you asked but from what I gather it was very public event. I don't remember it, also don't remember anything about the trip I took from Colorado to Arizona but do remember first time I arrived in Phoenix.
Last time I saw him was 2003, he mentioned things like if Al Gore won we wouldn't be having these problems. There was a news report that I pointed out to him that Marilyn Musgrave (his represent ive at the time) wanted a Constitutional Amendment banning gay marriage. He said, "Good. It's disgusting." I was done after that, no desire to see him again.
