The challenge...have you done something manly today or just talked / blogged about it?
Manly day! I miss training in Judo. Having a prosthetic leg doesn't work well with rolling on the mat so I switched to boxing. I also gave up kickboxing because it wouldn't seem fair to kick someone…

Let's see, in the past three days i have:
...worn a tux, made a Best man speech, smoked a Cohiba, mowed the lawn, consumed beer, whisky, rum, and vodka, played a mean guitar, broken up a fight, held the door for a lady, made lots of sweet love, wat…

What age is the boy who didn't want to sleep?

Not sure if this is manly or not, but it was my day: Took the family to my Grandmother’s house (with flowers/card, lunch-crabcakes, and a large bag of Landjäger - it‘s a German sausage-type thing she has loved since childhood) at the shore for her b…

A group for sharing and discussing those amazing practical skills that every man aquires in an effort to make his world run the way he wants it to.
Manly day! I miss training in Judo. Having a prosthetic leg doesn't work well with rolling on the mat so I switched to boxing. I also gave up kickboxing because it wouldn't seem fair to kick someone with a titanium leg.
Good day. I watched Alice in Wonderland with my daughter today. Liked it more than I expected.
I made breakfast for my kids, then continued to potty-train my daughter.
I repaired our espresso machine.
I am about to prepare lunch, my wife is at work.

Later today I will take son# 1 to t…
It's 9 a.m. where I am at. So far I've cleaned the fireplace, brought some wood inside and lit the whole thing up again, done my weekly vacuuming routine and played with my kids. At the moment I'm working on a seminar paper and in the afternoon I mi…
Oh ya I forgot, I cured my own twinge of an upset stomach with several doses of Blackberry Brandy. I was able to free up a doctor to help the truly needy.
Worked until 2 AM today. Was back at work at 10 AM. Diffused 3 political land mines. Took a call from my Son at Academic Games National Competition (they lost). Had 2 Martinis. Wore a hat.
I got up after a lousy night's sleep due to my arthritis
I paid my bills (on time) which is important to me and my creditors
I dropped off a can of balm to a person that has a bad skin reaction to dish sanitizing solution where she works
I went to a…
