Debora Kellom, director of operations for Wade Funeral Home in St. Louis, Mo., works far from Hollywood, but she has embraced the new trend too. Kellom has designed her home's viewing rooms to reflect the popular pastimes of her African-American clientele. One is a TV den with golf clubs and a La-Z-Boy; another is called Big Moma's Kitchen and displays a can of Crisco sitting atop a stove, Wonder Bread on the fridge and a dinette table loaded with real fried chicken.

...choice for father of the year. As the founder of the At-Home Dad Network, Peter continues on his nine-year quest to establish a bona fide home front for the more than 2,000,000 American dads who have left the cubicle for the small desk in their den. But when I called Peter to get the latest at-home daddy scoop, he glumly informed me that no new data exists. ""The Census tries to track us," he said, "but their efforts fall short.
