Father's Day & Telling it all 51

Watch the video here - Telling it all 51

In these videos by 80-year-old geriatric1927 we once again get to listen to stories about his childhood. And the specific subject matter is fathers, and in his case, grandfathers.

But Peter -- geriatric1927 -- presents some philosophy on families, his ideas on independence within families, and he gives a loving tribute to his father with some lovely, detailed descriptions of his good times during childhood spent with his dad, a hard-working adventurous man who was willing to try most anything.

As always in his blog postings, Peter paints a really nice picture of his own personal history and about his father and who the man was -- and he sprinkles in some general history. Again, we're not only entertained with Peter's stories but we learn a little world history too.

If one is to relate seemingly banal information on one's family background and historical stories in a fairly plain, narrative form, you risk boring your audience. But Peter always makes history come alive. He always has something very interesting to impart to his (now huge) worldwide audience and always with detailed facts and anecdotes in a voice that makes you want to tune him in and tune out all your other ambient noise.

(Speaking of ambient noise, geriatric1927's videos have picked up an annoying high pitched background noise. Ouch! It is the video. Do not adjust your set.)
