Hi Larry,

It was a pre-father's day present to a pre-father.  She wanted it delivered
to work so she couldn't do it on father's day.

I have spent the last 2 years educating my wife that I don't want clothes
for any sort of holiday.  To me, clothes are about as exciting as getting a
new toothbrush.  LEGO (and a few other "toys") are the proper gift!

Yep - I'm all excited.  I'm not allowed to open it until Sunday.  She put it
in my LEGO/Computer room right in front of me, but I'm under strict orders
not to open it.  She wants to tempt me.

I'm having trouble parsing this... was it a present to a pre-father or a
pre-(offical)day present or a pre-day present to a pre-father??? :-)

But anyway, I am jealous. My wife asked me what I wanted for Father's day, • I
said "Lego" and she said, "then you get nothing!".
