31 A simple rule for dating my son: I know how today s fashionable young woman likes to dress. When my son brings you home to meet us, if there are parts of your clothes that allow parts of your anatomy to show, we will take care of it before you leave. I have an extensive supply of duct tape and super glue. You see, I can t take the chance of an accident happening when my son s eyes pop out - he will need them both for medical school. A simple rule for dating my daughter: If you pull into my driveway and honk, you d better be delivering a package, because you re sure as heck not picking anything up!
