I'm collecting research for an upcoming blog post about what men do with themselves when their hair starts to go. Do you shave it off altogether? Do you comb-over? Are you letting it go naturally?…Continue

No, not a sentence for me. I'm quite happy not expressing emotions etc...and a sentence would be to have to keep talking about how I feel all the time (which would largely…"

Karl Helweg replied to Leah Morrigan's discussion I have an armor question!"Armour is simply flashy, exotic, and entertaining. I attend plays to be entertained.
I am not quite sure when it happened but after having Shakespeare unpleasantly shoved down my throat in high school I have become a fan (except for Hamlet -…"
Leah Morrigan replied to Leah Morrigan's discussion I have an armor question!"Shakespeare was shoved down my throat in Theatre school and left a bad taste in my mouth, so naturally I wouldn't have thought of his "war" plays like you did. Why more armored plays?"
Leah Morrigan replied to Leah Morrigan's discussion I have an armor question!"Thanks AT - very Tudor (can tell by the shape of the foot covering)."
Leah Morrigan replied to Leah Morrigan's discussion I have an armor question!"Hi Karl, excellent illustrations - too bad I can't read French! The style of illustration makes the armor look like costume renderings, only there are so few plays with knights as characters, apart from Don Quixote and Knight of the Burning…"

If you're wearing a suit, go with a top coat, as Rick and Native Son suggest. Be on the lookout for features like zip-out linings to make it more weather versatile. The top coat is built to go…"

Welcome to Movember! This year, we’re doing a famous mustache series. For our mid-Movember Mustache, the Toothbrush, 2 -3 centimeters of whiskers, synonymous with one of the most criminally insane minds of modern history, Adolf Hitler.
The Toothbrush was a popular American mustache style starting in the nineteen-teens, brought to life by entertainers of the day like Oliver Hardy and Charlie Chaplin. Once brought to Germany, the younger generation immediately took it on to replace the…

Zoologist, Desmond Morris, said in his BBC series, The Human Animal, that a man's wide shoulders above a narrow …

People tell me I’ve hit the big time when I receive hate mail.
I write as the men’s entrepreneurial image expert in the Toronto Star‘s Small Business section, and one day, I got a 4 am email from an intelligent but angry reader who couldn’t believe that I would waste his time talking about something as unimportant as socks.
He got…
