	<itunes:summary>Every episode features a new funny story.  Think Erma Bombeck with a PC, Dave Barry with recording software or Garrison Keillor with a microphone...  Oh, wait.  Strike that last one.

If you enjoy clean humor and a slightly skewed perspective on family life (I have two teenage sons...of course my life is skewed-up) please give this show a listen.</itunes:summary>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A colleague returned to work after her twelve-week maternity leave full of stories about childbirth and infant care. To hear her talk, she and her husband are the first human beings in the entire history of the world to have had a child. This is completely ridiculous since my wife and I were the first people ever to have a child.</p>
<p>Well&#8230;not really.</p>
<p>At the time it sure felt like it even though we knew other people had given birth before. We’d seen the training films in the mandatory child birth class. It was an eye-opening experience that left my wife trying to convince me to carry the baby to term. Her argument was that she’d carried the baby for five months, all she was asking me to do was carry it for four. Couldn’t I see how fair that was? (<a href="http://wp.me/pjV28-aZ">Full Text</a>)</p>
