Are you the perfect father?
No, but I try real hard.
Are you the perfect husband?
Same answer; or, you can ask my wife Lori. Don’t expect an answer though – she’s mad busy and likes to take long naps in the sun on her days off.
How many kids do you have?
Three – Chani, Ty and Caitlin. Chani is pronounced SHAW-NEE, and I got it from the movie Dune. Lori and I agreed on Ty’s name while lounging in a hot tub in West Palm Beach, FL. We actually agreed on Caitlin’s name in that same hot tub. Ty came first about a year later, and then Caitlin came two years after Ty.
Do you think it’s wrong to write about your family and kids online? What about share pictures?
I don’t have a problem with it, and neither does Lori. As for what everyone else thinks, well…they can make their own decisions about what they do with their family. There are boundaries to what I write about, and the types of pictures I post, but they’re not set in stone (I just know it when I see it).
Do you consider yourself a Stay-at-home-Dad (SAHD)?
I prefer the term At-home Dad because I do actually attempt to work from home and take care of the kids. It’s all semantics though, as I am the primary one responsible for the kids and they definitely come first for me.
Do you accept unsolicited parenting advice or constructive criticism from readers, zealots or other online lunatics?
No.
Do you want me to send you a long-winded message about why Dads will love our product, service or website?
No.
Do you want me to send you thousands of dollars and a trophy for Father of the Year?
Yes. Here is my e-mail.
Do you read press releases sent to you?
Not usually (unless the lead or headline is really compelling).
Do you review products or services for a fee?
Not usually, but you can send me a request. Everyone has their price, right?
Do you ever run sponsored contests?
Yes. In fact, I’ve been able to give my readers thousands of dollars in free stuff, usually for writing or talking about the importance of being a good dad. The only thing I won’t do is ask my readers to endorse or link to a product, company or service. If you want to talk to me about running a sponsored contest on Discovering Dad, send me an e-mail.
Will you link to my site? How about give me a front page recommendation?
Easy partner – you gotta warm me up a bit first. Take the time to get to know me before you ask for something. Subscribe to My Feed. Leave a few comments. Look me up on cre8Buzz or Twitter. Spread some love on my site, through StumbleUpon, Digg, Mixx or Technorati. Then, after I actually get to know your name, send me an e-mail. By that point, though, I will have probably already done some things to give you a boost. If there is a way we can help each other, then I’m open to talk about it.
Do you accept guest posts?
Yes, depending on the topic. Send me an e-mail. Make sure you have a specific idea in mind that will fit this site.
Do you write guest posts?
Yes, on occasion. I publish several websites though, so my time is stretched pretty thin. I am working on teaching the kids to write articles for me though, so you can feel free to e-mail me and see if one of us is available.
What kind of car to you drive?
I have a monster truck sitting in the driveway and a Jeep in the garage. Neither vehicle gets more than 15 mpg. I try not to leave the house.
Why do you have ads on your site?
I have three kids, remember? Dumb ass question. Clothes. Diapers. Food. College. Health care. If you see something you need on my site, click it and buy it! Seriously - college tuition is going up almost as fast as the price of gas. If I could put a banner ad on my ass and flaunt it around for money, I would. People could kick me instead of clicking, and then I’d hand them a flyer or registration form or something. Do I sell ads on my site? Hell yeah, I do! If you want to buy an add and feel good about supporting my kids college funds, send me an e-mail.
Who is your favorite dad?
My dad.
Who is your favorite historical figure?
Benjamin Franklin.
What is your mission in life?
To make a positive difference in the world through my roles as husband, father and leader (in that order).
Do you really think one person can change the world?
Yes. I think it only takes one person to change your world – yourself.
What is your favorite quote?
“Seek first to understand, then to be understood.” -Stephen R. Covey
What kind of books do you read?
Biographies, history, personal growth, leadership development, non-fiction
What is your favorite beer?
Guiness.
What is your favorite food?
Eating is a chore to me. Seriously, if I could exist without eating, I would.
Why do so many of your profiles use the name “jnbammer”?
My name is Jeremy Neal, hence “jn”; and, I played football in college and the guys on the team used to call me BamBam or Bammer, hence “bammer.”
If you were an animal, what kind would you be?
Are we done here?
If you want to know more about me, read the blog. Thanks!
