That LOOK of Parenthood

The NEW AND IMPROVED Longest Disclaimer in the Tri-State Area

“Triumph of A Man Called Da-da” (TOAMCDD) is a rather odd blog of puzzling force and moment, and should not be used as as parenting template, as a way of raising wild animals, as an inexpensive morning toast spread, or as a Personal Disposeable Occam's Razor, though it might make an excellent doorstop if you printed all the posts out in a big pile and left them near... you know... a door.

In case of emergency, please dial 9-1-1 and consult a Registered Hoobah Poobah for specific shock absorber gentrification. The above posts are based on Da-da's individual fact-findings, hunches, direct knowledge and experiences -- which are so VAST, yet so limited. Void where prohibited, if not wholly inadviseable. Many products Da-da reviews... oh, wait. Da-da doesn't review products. Unless they're really good. And Da-da uses them. Thus is Da-da's integrity unmatched in the blogosphere, if not the media maquiladora tri-state area, which Da-da guards like a little girl with a pink unicorn chainsaw puffin.

All artwork, photography, text and content is copyrighted by their respective creators. All TOAMCDD content Copyright Gary Clemenceau (aka, A Man Called Da-da). All Rights Reserved. And unless otherwise noted -- again -- all images are owned and copyrighted by their respective holders and are presented here for satiric, parodic, idiotic and educational purposes within “fair use” terms of US Code: Title 17, Sec. 107. If Da-da missed a citation, just let him know and he'll fix it. Da-da is nothing if not reasonable, and attorneys are necessary only when people are UNreasonable. So, please, be a reasonable member of the world population and starve the attorneys out, then maybe they'll leave.

Note: unless specifically mentioned, Da-da often has no clue where images came from, as many are sent to him by irresponsible whackos, while others are passed around and wind up in the litter box where the cat chews 'em for a while, leaving 'em wiggling and nearly bloodless on Da-da's front stoop. If you own the copyright of one of these dying images and want Da-da to remove it, say the word. No part of this site, or any of the content contained herein, may be used or reproduced in any manner whatsoever without expressed written permission of A Man Called Da-da. Void where prohibited. Your future may vary -- a lot.

NOTE: REPOSTING IS FINE provided you cite said content coming from A Man Called Da-da.

ALSO NOTE: ANY EDITING OF ANY KIND BY ANYONE OTHER THAN THE AUTHOR IS EXPRESSLY FORBIDDEN; ANY VIOLATION OF SUCH WILL AUTOMATICALLY ENTITLE THE AUTHOR TO $1M IN DAMAGES, WITH NO ARGUMENTS AND NO APPEALS. THE AUTHOR HOLDS ALL RIGHTS TO ALL CONTENT, SAVE FOR FAIR-USE IMAGES. ALL EDIT REQUESTS MUST BE MADE TO A MAN CALLED DADA IN WRITING, BY CERTIFIED MAIL. THIS AGREEMENT SUPERCEDES ALL PREVIOUS AGREEMENTS.
