    have you become the atypical parent type or have you retained your coolness?...

    Is the fat lady in a tye dyed top with her midriff showing, fisherman's pants and no shoes, walking around with unshaved legs and no bra cool? No, I dont think she is. Yes, that was probably too much information, but probably the same amount of information you would get if you saw me walking...
