Martin replied to Eric Lindberg's discussion Fall coats/jackets
"This is so cool. I saw a guy wearing one of these just this week and thought that it'd be a good thing to get, but had no idea what it was or where I'd get it. Now I have both. Thank you!"

Hello

Name's Martin, I've been a long time reader of the blog and somehow never before ventured into the forums. The posts have very often given me food for thought.I have just entered into my 40's, and I still feel like I've missed out on a lot when it comes to knowing about what it is to be the sort of man I want to be.

Victor E. Franklin replied to Jonny's discussion Was putting my dog to sleep the right thing to do?
"Yes you did the right thing for him.  The first and only dog I ever loved was 12 when his hips went.  He couldn't walk.  That's no way for a dog to live.  I had him put down the next day.  It was one of the hardest…"

""Transparency", how often have we heard that from this president?  How can he promise transparency when he doesn't even know what is going on under his 'watch'?  The president sets the tone of the administration,…"

Rob Sexton replied to Rob Sexton's discussion Secular Manhood vs Christian Manhood in the group Christian Men
"Honestly Shane, if it weren't for my girls and my vows I took in the presence of God, that is most likely what I would do with my life, at this point.  I hear their numbers are down, anyway..."

"Jonny---so sorry to hear about your loss.  Let me offer my sincerest condolences.  I've lost beloved pets before, and I know how tough this can be.  I'd encourage you to be good to yourself for the next few days--this may…"

Rob Sexton replied to J. Hughes's discussion Are we failing at spreading the Word? in the group Christian Men
"I don't think its so much that we are failing at spreading the Gospel- I think its that Christians are failing to be Christians.  Its the quality vs quantity conundrum.  Are those who are already Christians carrying their crosses…"

"Do you mind expanding a bit what you are looking for with "sound moral character"? I am with you that we are stupid to look for the god-like perfection of a candidate, but then what leaves us with then the far extremes or bland…"

Paul_of_TX replied to LShieldes's discussion Scandal run down in the group The Great Debate
"Unfortunately that is probably going to be a difficult and long process. Apparently nobody tells the president anything. His desires are not expressed to those lower down the chain except for his own special brand of transparency. This special form…"
