    Am I ready to be a parent?
    Ask most parents about their first few months of child rearing, and you’ll likely hear the same stories. They’ll talk about sleepless nights and painful deliveries. There will be tales of messy homes and even messier schedules. It will include leagues of harrowing narratives that end only when the youngsters move away to college — and even that’s unlikely to put a stop to the madness these days.
    So why do we decide to breed new generations, year after year?

    I have thought for decades that somebody should invent some sort of training device that people could use to get into shape for surfing.
    It’s actually more the paddling than the surfing itself that is the issue. If you don’t surf for a period of time your arms will not be ready when that long-awaited swell shows up.
    A pal of mine named Glenn Hening has created what he calls the S4 Trainer. He describes it as “A new exercise device made to avoid ‘noodle arms.’”
