Ever wonder what happened to these two? After outgrowing their fame as childhood literacy advocates and avid kite-flyers, Dick and Jane took to the poolside life of early retirement and song-writing.

Dads and Shark Sharks
Summer's here, and once again, our minds turn to short shorts. Here is pictured Aurinko's dad, Ernesto embodying the spirit of Tracy Jordon, before Tracy Jordon was even born: Live every week like it's shark week (in short shorts)!

Wow wow wow, Joanie Loves Chachi... in short shorts
I'll bet you always wondered what happened to this happy couple after their show was canceled two seasons in. Turns out they hightailed it to the streets of NYC where they replaced their devoted backup band with a trio of babies. Struggling to make ends meet, their wardrobe was minimal. Chachi sacrificed most of his pants to make outfits for the rest of the gang, and thus the short shorts craze was born.
Fun Fact: Chachi actually means "penis" in Korean.

River Dad
Here we see a transcendental Kenny Loggins sort of dad entering the danger zone as he attempts, for the first time ever, to frighten a worm onto a hook using only the persuasive power of short shorts. An inspiration to us all.

The Daddy Brothers
After their Doobie-Brothers-in-short-shorts cover band failed to attract any ladies, Caitlin's dad n co decided to Take it to the Streets and find some sporty chicks, on their way back from Woodstock, who could appreciate their talent for traveling light.

Club Dad: They're Not Dad Into You
Monday, April 19, 2010
Dad-chemy
Turn an ordinary ashtray into a perfectly good coaster - check.
Turn everything in this room completely brown - check.
Teach the world to sing in perfect short shorts harmony - check.
Don a pair of tube socks on everyo - oh wait, you forgot the bear. Almost perfection.

Butterfly in the sky, dad can get twice as high...
You remember that theme song, right? Amy's dad seems to have taken his love of Reading Rainbow to the next level here as we find him channeling Jerry Garcia, and LeVar Burton (with maybe a smack of Gallagher?), to take a journey through the book It's just a Plant.
I guess you can take the Dad-Head off of the Grateful-Dead touring bus, but you can't take the short shorts off his legs. But don't take our word for it...

Dad on the run
This photo, probably snapped by a police security camera, catches a dad + daughter Thelma and Louise-like duo flying by the seat of their short-shorts looking for adventure... or whatever comes their way. We can only presume that this was originally Becca's birth announcement, titled "Born to be Wild."

Dad in the Dug-Out
When Gene Shalit (adidas shirt) realizes his team of baseball misfits is hopeless, he brings in the ringer - "daddy shorts stop." Bad News Balls all the way.
PS - pizza party at the coach's apartment later.

Slip-n-Dad
Another unprompted history lesson in cultural sensitivity at this year's fourth of July barbecue: while we've always thought of short shorts as the modern day fig leaf, it never occurred to us that a slip n slide could so elegantly portray an ancient fountain. Well done, Adelaide's dad.

Daddy Long Legs
Despite the fact that all signs point to fall in this pic, Liane's dad is breakin' all the records with his Florida short shorts. To experience the full effect of this post, click the soundtrack, below, and then click on the dad. Rinse, repeat.

Catch of the Dad
Here we find dad imparting yet another awkward life lesson: Give a dad a fish, you have fed him for a day. Give a dad some short shorts, and you have dressed him for a lifetime.

All Dads on Deck
The scene: Mardi Gras, 1980
The weapon: one single yard of beer
The crime: lady killing
The Culprit: Heidi's dad
How he was caught: Watch as Ed skillfully charms his victims with his smooth 1-yard-of-beer-in-28-seconds skills. A classic case of whodunnit, until his secret is unexpectedly revealed. Look again, and you'll notice the clever and convenient "easy-access" design of these short shorts and extra absorbent terry cloth top... well, let's just say that isn't booze on the wooden boat deck. Flood gates open, case closed.

Auto Steak Dad
If Zeus had an album cover, this may be what it would have looked like. Mr. Silver is pictured here, in front of Mount Olympus, taking a break from a long journey through time and space to play what appears to be either an auto harp or a flank steak. Fortunately the Greek gods had a mini barbecue magically appear from a tree stump for him to rest his leg upon, so he could take some time to sing what we could only imagine to be an ancient Greek Bob Dylan song.

Did someone Lose a Dad??

Finally found the Dad of a lifetime
Casually perched in what can only be described as my dream basement, Cassandra's dad is a true 1970's stud, effortlessly portraying Redford better than Redford ever could. The feathered bangs pretty much seal the deal. Note that no other man is pictured from the waist down, so we can only assume that this is a no-pants party all around.
