My wily six-year-old was trying to pull an unlikely Peking Pile Driver (as if I were born yesterday!), and I was this far from executing a perfect Triple-Death Windmill Kick that would have punted her out of the arena when the phone rang. "It's someone from work for you, Dada," she said, in that adorable, squeaky baby voice. "Hurry up so I can kick your ass!" My wife looked at me. "Educational...
