I like Mike Rowe!
Bump.
He rose to “prominence” as a trained opera singer.
Facebook bkmk.
fantastic piece.
He’s a good man. Funny too.
And he’s refutes the NYT’s pussified version very nicely.
I disagree with Mike about lists. A Man’s Man knows his limitations and deals with them. I know if I need more than 4 things at the store I WILL forget at least 1 without a list, so I make them.
And I like melonballers. It’s kind of meditative. And they store and eat better that way. Mine don’t come out terribly uniform.

I thought I was the only one with that problem, only my limit is three things and then I keep repeating those three things to myself, all the way to the store. I usually get all three things and maybe twelve more items.
Mike Rowe is definitely MY kind of man!
Rowe sang professionally with the Baltimore Opera. He says about this job, “I joined the opera to get my union card and meet girls. I was a saloon singer, so I went down to the Baltimore Opera and learned an aria and auditioned. I figured I’d do one show and quit. But the girls were everywhere and the truth is, the music was really decent.”[9]

That it is! I couldn't wait to get through it all so I could "Like" it. And I NEVER "like" FB posts.
His piece on Minimum Wage a few months back should be mandatory reading in every school.... and in Congress
I'm even worse. I'll get the twelve extra items and forget the thing I went to the store for in the first place.
When I want to buy an article of clothing for my wife I check the size tab in some similar piece of clothing she already owns - and make sure it’s returnable if she doesn’t approve for any reason - Christmas is two months away....
I don’t know what a Wu-Tang is nor why I should listen to it.
But judging by the rest of the original NYT list, I’m not even going to bother Googling it.
I don’t get as many extras as I used to. Especially since I have a list and no longer wander the store trying to remember what I’m looking for.
Well played, sir. Very well played. My husband knows he can’t go wrong with Purdue hoodies, always safe for Christmas.
Hey, after forty some years, I’ve finally got to be getting a few things right....
My limit is three also. Any more than three and I have to make a second trip.
When I was a kid I used to watch guys play pumpkin ball. Is this melon ball anything like pumpkin ball?
