I'm actually under strict instructions to never tell him because of the blackmail value. These instructions came from a 15 year-old girl whose father basically did the same thing to her. Aparently, her dad also once grounded her then-5 year-old brother for not eating cereal that dad had poured coffee over early in the morning. The grounding was repealed pretty quickly after mom intervened and showed the dad what he tried to make the kid eat.
The best thing about this whole experience is the other stories that I've gotten out of people. Aparently one of my biggest clients once dropped his 9-month old directly onto the top of her head from about 3 feet. Since she's going to Harvard this fall, I don't think it did much harm, but the way he tells the story made my abs hurt.
