The Tao Of Da-Da: Or, "Strong Winds Can Blow All Day Depending On How Much Sugar Has Been Ingested"

Like Alan Watts with beany weenies. ~ Chris SaviaThe TAO of Da-da [dow ov dah dah] is somewhere between Christmas and being roasted alive. It's what happens when a half-crazed, sleep-deprived parent starts misremembering excerpts of The Tao de Ching while high-speed toddlers crash and burn and scream into walls and furniture and innocent bystanders, with you just standing there, Legos stuck to your face, in fascination-of-the-abomination, pretending that epic tantrums and parabolic dinner arcs are business as usual. Sample TAO of Da-da parenting wisdom:Empty your mind of all thoughtsLike you had any left?Let your heart be at peacebut try to stay conscious.Watch the turmoil born of Small Beingsbut only contemplate using the duct tape..."The Tao of Da-da marries a haggard dad's wry, self-deprecating view of his own role, with the wisdom of a venerable Chinese philosopher... along with select funniness from Da-da's award-winning parenting-humor-and-horror blog, "Triumph of a Man Called Da-da." Really, every day you survive as a parent is a triumph, and somewhere in there is The Way, or The TAO of Da-da.
