Of course it does. It sounds like most everyone's father.
Dads are like that.
"Close the door"
Turn down the furnace.
Lights off when you leave a room.

I would love to go to Prague. Looks so gorgeous this time of year.
College tuition will put that dream on hold for a few years.
Luckily, the city isn't going anywhere.
I wouldn't go in winter.... Too cold.
A friend of mine went in summer.... and the city was flooded...:nuts:
Better wait for global warming to get there....:sad:
 
:lol:
When Ludmilla invented abbreviated bag name, "zippy b," life with mine became much less bizarre.:tup:
I love abbreviations myself....
When I was in England my colleagues and I alluded to our two morning and afternoon bus schedules by naming them BBB1 or BB2
Better to catch BB1 in the morning, the next one, BBB2, wouldn't have allowed us to have a cup of tea before starting work.....:nuts:
Same in the afternoon. We rushed out of the office to get BBB1.... just to get a cup of tea in town before going home...:smile:
