Life Medium Rare.
Julie Jacobs wears many hats. Among them are mom, marketing/sales goddess and wife. But, we’re most interested in another of her hats: Saint. As the wife of best-selling author, A.J. Jacobs, Julie has (from time to time) endured some rather unorthodox (pun intended) changes to her life. Seriously, how many wives would “support the dream” if that dream included having to fight with theirs husbands via email to their husband’s outsourced assistant in India? And, we’re guessing not many wives (especially pregnant wives) would put up with their husbands living life according to the Bible for a year. We love Julie (technical difficulties and all).DOF21: Controlling kids in stores, earrings on little ones, and Todd’s serenade to the post office

Matthew McConaughey Knocks Up G’Friend
January 16, 2008
Hunky stud Matthew McConaughey and his hottie girlfriend are expecting a future naked drum circle participant. His girlfriend, Camila Alvez, is three months preggers with the little bambino. I know it’s perhaps a little strange to think - “Wow, this kid is gonna be gorgeous,” but holy crap! Can you even imagine?
McConaughey is one of those dudes that is beloved by all. I imagine he’s gonna be a great dad. Like Tom Cruise? Can’t imagine he’s really all that great of a dad. Can’t imagine he’s too involved in anything other than spoon-feeding Scientology to Suri. McConaughey, though, will have his kid on motorcycle safaris from birth (and he/she will never wear deodorant).
I’m guessing this kid is gonna have some kind of trend setting name too.
Kids Hate Clowns
January 16, 2008
It’s official. In a survey taken across the pond, researchers found that “clowns are universally disliked by children. Some (children) found them quite frightening and unknowable.” This, of course, is good news for dads who have been trying desperately to convince their wives that strippers would make a better option for their kids’ birthday parties.
Seriously, with Elmo, Barney, the Teletubbies (talk about scary!) and any number of other over-commercialized characters for kids to feast on, who needs clowns anyway? Back in the day, clowns had a monopoly on kids entertainment. Those days are long gone, however. Clowns are as done as Britney Spears. Their days are over. Time to take off the face paint and cry real tears, Bozo.
Yes, It’s Totally Wrong. Whatever.

Yes, it’s totally wrong. But, you know you do it too. We all do it. It’s funny. That’s why we do it.
Mom Sells Kid’s Car
January 11, 2008
Mom buys son car. Mom tells son “no booze in car.” Mom finds booze in car. Mom sells car. This scenario played out in two weeks. Nice going son. Mom is getting HUGE props from around the country for her actions. The kid is pissed, of course, but he truly effed up. I give the mom credit for taking a stand and sticking by it. Most of us would probably just take the care away for some period of time, etc. But selling it? Nice.

Dads on Fire 20: Winter Blues
January 11, 2008
Are we really gonna be talking about the malaise that comes with clouds, cold, rain and snow? The truth is - we don’t really know. But, we had to throw something on the site, so there it is. Winter sucks. Sure, boarding, skiing and other snow sports are good fun, but gray skies suck ass. Maybe we’ll talk football instead.
Dads on Fire 19: Back in the Saddle Again
January 11, 2008
Happy New Year, Holiday Inertia, Sex, Micromanaging Moms, Skadaddle Media
After a long, sometimes restful, sometimes not-so-restful month away from the microphones, Dads on Fire has returned the “airwaves.” We’re going to really step up the efforts to talk more about “Life. Medium Rare.” We can pretend like we all live in the pretty, little Norman Rockwell paintings of perfection, but there are times when life is just pretty damn raw. In between? Medium Rare.
We have big things coming down the pike. New format. New content. And, it’s all gonna be bitchin’! Welcome back and Happy New Year!
