Eddie McNamara, Dethroner’s pal from the local force, returns to drop another pearl of wisdom and advice. This time it’s less about John Q. Law and more about John Q. Dad, and why a sensible man should never, ever take part in repopulating his planet.
It should be noted that Eddie and his wife don’t have […]

Before you become a father, it’s easy to get cocky about what horrors you have in store for your progeny. Father-son fishing trips, beer clean-up duty for toddlers, male breastfeeding; that sort of thing. Nature’s little secret, though, is that when the big day actually rolls around, your body will have been transformed into a […]

Intrepid Aussie inventor builds his own two-fifths scale Sherman tank and films a lot of the build process for our enjoyment. What a nice guy! The custom transmission is especially impressive, made from just a few pulleys and folded and bolted seat belt webbing.
Part five is above—I love the Andrew Sisters song—while the rest of […]

One of the most gut-wrenching, time-consuming tasks of new parenthood is one which fathers can’t much help with: breastfeeding. Dads, of course, can politely ask “How’s that latch going?” Or they can question the frequency of feedings (This one’s my specialty: Is he eating too much!?!? Is he eating too little!??!?).

If your dating life seems out of sorts, it’s only because you’ve not properly wired your relationships. I’ll follow Brownlee’s lead and let this gem sparkle on its own:
