    <p>Don’t forget this one okay? Now we all know that the penalty for not remembering Mother’s Day is pretty severe…in fact most of us only forget it once. However if you forget Father’s Day, chances are he’s just going to go on about his business, mowing the yard, washing the car and fixing the things that have fallen apart, etc. No big deal. Or in the past perhaps you’ve gotten the “Old Man” something really thoughtful like a new weed trimmer, or something that he has to assemble and install…right?</p>
