Around the horn. The Census report flogged yesterday was not without news. Kudos to the Hartford Courant and the Christian Science Monitor for running stories on the data that, while they touched on the at-home parent numbers, didn't treat the at-home parent stats like some sort of groundbreaking finding.

Credit where it's due: Glenn Sacks managed to get Verizon to pull its bumbling dad ad. As I said before, I didn't think the spot -- about a computer-clueless father -- was worse than a dozen or so other commercials playing off the dumb dad image, but more power to anyone who takes aim at such stereotypes.

Welcome, Jeremiah Lee, to the ranks of the at-home father. Extra kudos for posting your resignation letter. I'll add to the blogroll soon.

Not quick enough: At-Home Dad's Peter Baylies has been a posting machine lately. Drop by to get his take on the convention (the insights are razor-sharp, especially the nice things he says about me), the Census stats and the husbands edition of Wife Swap, which I intentionally missed.
