"Every now and then an author stands out for his sharp observations, crackling dialogue, and incisive storyline -- qualities found in Literature with a capital L.

All he knows of the son he hasn't seen in years is that ""he likes computers"", the understatement of the year.

Joe barely makes it in time for the nuptials and stays on through Father's Day a week later, raising havoc throughout.
