Looks to be a great day to be a Rebel Dad: blue sky, not too hot. Another reminder that I have a wonderful job.

There continues to be a little bit of an at-home dad story drought ... but the last time I said that, an alert reader mentioned that I missed a Today show segment on Reel Moms, a nifty little service in which, once a week, a theater opens itself up to parents and their kids.

It should be mentioned that I've mentioned this story before, because Michael Zorek, a NYC at-home dad, was quoted in a widely used AP story last month. Now, Zorek is quoted in this CBS report from yesterday and in this Newsweek piece from this week's edition (which includes this gem -- "The brainchild of a new-father Loews Cineplex exec, the idea is to give moms—and dads, reminds participant Michael Zorek—an opportunity to get out, tykes in tow." Thanks, Mike!)

Finally, to dip into the mailbag, it looks as if I'm not alone in my Parenting Magazine frustration. One reader's nomination for the best dad-friendly magazine? Mothering. Go figure. Thanks to all who have used the comment system ... I was preparing to pull the plug, afraid that there just wasn't a need for reader communication. I'll keep it up a little longer.
