Father's Day Deals for the Man who Gave Birth to You - HUH?

Got this email promotion from Groupon today.

I wonder who came up with this marketing phrase?

Not a very big target market that I can think of.

I really hope they were trying to be funny and didn't just outsource the campaign to a country where English is not the native language.

About this Blog

Updated 2020

The Parentals retired in February 2019 and got a small RV that August. All the Childrentals are self supporting (thanks to Physics, Data Analysis, LoudBicycle, and Mechanical Engineering), including Lumpy, whose 1st job did indeed fall from heaven. Now there are even GrandChildrentalUnits although they do not have their own blog yet.

KeepingUpWithTheParentalUnits blog was started in 2008 so the Childrental Units* could find out what the Parental Units have been doing, the same way the Parental Units keep up with the Childrental Units* by reading their blog.

Also, to post silly sign pictures.

* 'Childrental' as in Children-tal not Child-rental. (We are not attempting to rent out our children, although Lumpy might consider a summer job (so long as he wouldn't have to work too hard) if one were to fall from heaven onto his lap, and finals were over.
