A father spent 13 years - Kindergarten through senior year HS - getting the book "Oh the Places You'll Go" secretly signed with special messages from all his daughter's teachers, principals, and coaches. Then he gave it to her on her HS graduation day.

What an amazing gift! I don't think I have ever gotten or given anything like that. You?

Wow! That is a really wonderful gift.

That would have been a terrible gift for me. Some of my teachers would have written stuff like... "Oh the places you'll be? The Crime logs, you hooligan. The Hospital, you clutz!"

HA! I don't know, that could still be kind of fun.

Bleh. Makes me want yak. Seriously. That is not a useful gift for a graduate. It's sentimental gobbldee gook.

I love me some yak

Anon fail.

I am most touched by the father's 13-year in the making effort. That's dedication.

HA! I've never wanted yak but I have considered gnu.

"Ta Friggin da"

Not useful, no, but every once in a while we could all use a reminder of how awesome we are

... or aren't, as in Funk's case.

Sadly true

No way! Was that really an anon fail Caps?

No that's all mine. I think anon was saying it's a fail because I can't edit it, maybe?

That is an incredible gift! I love when people do amazing & creative things. Thanks, Anny.
