    Hello Paul I've been following you on youtube and always loved your content and vlogs you have put out there and after this particular video what I thought about you is confirmed, you are an awesome person and I see where you get it, your father is awesome x's 2. Thanks for sharing I really enjoyed the short stories Baby Mae is lucky to have such a awesome man keep up what you do we all that follow you have mad respect for you and what you do for us with content and giving us a snap shop of your personal life. By the way I am Afro American and yes color blind myself and to hear your father's take on that at his age was just too awesome to hear. Planning my visit to Philippines hear in the next two months so hope to meet you, I am also seriously considering relocating there to enjoy the rest of my life.

    I can see how your dad could get confused. He looks more like 76 than 96. I love guys like this.

    Thank you for this Paul. My father also served in WWII. Your father's generation went through so much, the depression the war with rationing and came out of it knowing they could handle anything. I think maybe that's the secret. Glad you got to visit.

My parents are in their mid 70s and I'll be eternally thankful to god if they make it as long as your father has. Thank you for sharing this Paul. God bless you both.

    I'm so glad you got to see your dad Paul. When you told us he had Covid a few weeks ago I was worried about him being his age. He kicked covids butt though didn't he. Good for him! Take care and have a good time there in the States!

      @davidhankins5708 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Trevor Smith hey! Believe what you may! It is a real plague spread by Chi of China along with some idiots from the States, primarily Fauci and his bunch of conspirators! It was made political by the evil Dems who used it to get elected, which I believe is truly evil! I know of 6 people, friends of mine, who were healthy and developed flu like conditions who passed. So a myth I think not, a political football, yes!!
