In 2000 it was “Soccer Moms”. In 2004 “NASCAR Dads” is the newest hey-lets-stereotype-a-bunch-of-people-and-try-to-be-clever name for a voter group this November. However, it doesn’t describe me at all. And it’s not that I don’t like NASCAR, I do. (I can’t say I’m a fan, but I went to a race one time and besides being one of the loudest things I’ve ever experienced, it was a hell of a lot of fun.) But the name just doesn’t describe me. This got me thinking, what kind of "clever" dad-name could I be a part of? Here are some suggestions:
iPod Dads
Sleep-deprived Dads
Blogging Dads
Grilling Dads
XBox Dads
Poker Dads
Laptop Dads
Need-To-Start-Working-Out-Again Dads
