BOULDER, CO — Sources closest to 40-year-old Jay Brennan reported that the local dad was physically unable to drive by cows without saying, "Hey, kids, look — cows."
According to Brennan's wife, Gabriella, the condition started on the drive back home from the hospital with their firstborn.
"He's been doing this... pretty much since he became a father," Gabriella said. "Any time we're in the car, there's just a constant stream of running commentary on everything we pass. It's like he never grew up from reading 'My First 1000 Words.' I think he even does it when he's alone in the car."
Brennan said he was only doing what comes naturally.
"The kids need to know when there are cows," Brennan said. "I can't even help it. It's just a reaction. How else will the kids have their attention drawn to the cows if I don't point them out? I tried once to contain it, but it was no use. I just blurted it out. I don't know why, but... I just had to."
In a similar incident that occurred recently, Brennan noticed a passing flock of Canadian geese flying in a V-shaped formation. He reportedly fidgeted for a moment before turning to his children. "Hey, look over there, guys — geese," Brennan said, with witnesses saying he seemed like a great weight had been instantly lifted off of him. "They're migrating. They fly like that because it makes them more aerodynamic."
At publishing time, Brennan had joined a therapy group of dads who couldn't stop pointing out all of the animals they passed on car rides.
