Here at EoT we pride ourselves on being good fathers and generally – good men. But being a man isn’t all aftershave and lawn clippings. No, there is much more to it than that. There are these unwritten rules that men have, many of them unspoken and many of them not known until they are [...]

As we learned in last week’s post, there are some moments in our children’s’ lives – specifically our daughters lives – that we will dread but cherish just the same. Last month we looked at some of the finer moments in our daughter’s lives, mostly related the pre-teen and teen years. This month, I’m going [...]

Last Wednesday was a fairly normal evening at my house. My wife was at work so I was solely in charge of my daughters’ (ages 5 & 3) bedtime routines. After baths, a rousing game of Wii Super Mario Bros., and bedtime stories, I had them both tucked soundly into their beds when the phone [...]

This morning I got up at 5am, like any other day of the week; schlepped down stairs; got my cloths ready; showered and shaved. That’s my routine (less the shaving part as I’m lazy and don’t need to hack at the mug everyday). As I’m getting out of the shower, I hear the pitter patter [...]

At the end of a tumultuous weekend, its touching monogamy -16, banal extramarital kink +69

Delta Airlines doesn’t actually hate your baby. In fact, they love your baby. How could they not? It’s a spectacular profit center. Of course, actual babies can’t fly unaccompanied, but older kids certainly can. Airlines make a big deal out of how well they’ll take care of your children while they fly off to wondrous [...]

The Today Show did a piece about mommy bloggers this morning that talked about the popularity of the space, specifically about dealing with negativity. All the typical things were covered: dealing with trolls, negative comments, back-lash, personal attacks, etc. Overall the piece was good, but where the hell is the love for the daddy bloggers?

I’m a huge James Bond fan. Of the films, my favorite is From Russia, With Love, in no small part because it contains one of the best movie fights of all time.
