And now a word from our sponsors: with Rebel Dad Radio up and running and the blog continuing its usual pace, I thought I would put in a quick plug for the RebelDad Store at Cafepress. Obviously, the site is a labor of love, and the time and money it takes to maintain it comes from me, not a large corporate parent. If you'd like to show your support, please surf on over. I've added a couple of new items to the offerings, and I'm always open to adding additional products.

Thanks for suffering through this ad, and thanks for all the support this year. I'll now keep the commercial messages to a minimum (at least until Father's Day).
