My favorite Thanksgiving Story EVER

Well, i'm not sure If i'll be posting tomorrow or not..so i'm doin' two blog entries tonight. Thanksgiving is just two short days away and I thought I would share my all time favorite story which happened on this day. Of course to have achieved such lofty status the story obviously occurred at someone else's expense...in this case my dad's.
My dad is bald. Like very bald. Anywho, one year we went to Weber's for dinner..(which i'm doin' this year too actually). We were there with my brother, mom, and grandparents. The baldness of my dad is critical here, because when he eats certain foods, his head will sweat...and by sweat, I mean drip sweat. It really can be a borderline swell of perspiration when it builds up after the right combination of food. So, i don't recall what it was, but he ate something that just set that skull off in a symphony of glistening awkwardness. My dad was/is very paranoid about it. He took a napkin and wiped it clean..and leaned over and said "josh, did i get it all?" and i said "sure did". It was cool as a cucumber...for about 5 minutes. It began streaming again and he took the same aforementinoed napkin and began dabbing it again..when all of a sudden the waitress came back. I said "Dad!! The waitress is coming!!" Cause i knew he wouldn't want her to see him doing that..he immediately yanked the napkin off his head in mid swabbing. Unfortunately..in his haste...half the napkin stuck to his head unbeknownst to him. The waitress came over to see how things were, I of course couldn't answer because i was curled up in a ball on the floor in tears as she kept glancing at my dad's head. After she left I tipped him off as to what the joke was and he was HOT.
He laughs it now...but I will never forget that 3x5 inch square of wet tissue affixed to my dad's wet scalp that fateful thanksgiving meal.
