He-MAN and the Masters of the Universe
"Fabulous secret powers were revealed to me the day I held aloft my magic sword and said, 'By the power of grey skull, I have the power!' "
Let those with swords have the power.

A tragedy beyond measure
Prior to stumbling upon this article I failed to understand the impact that a fallen economy can have on mankind. Sure, I've seen those closest to me struggle to find work. Yes, I've personally seen investments reduced to pennies. Even now I find myself staring at the foliage filled effigy of our president backed by an American flag on the front of a Chia Obama package asking, "When will we rise to where we once were?"
Then I read about a man who knows a thing or two about rising high and his individual struggle to find work. Just remember, you're not alone in this recession. While we all feel its effects, we each have something to be proud of and that alone should cause us as a nation of men to stand tall and firm in our resolve to grow from this experience.
Unemployment Takes a Shot at Manhood
Hang in there Jonah.

7th Inning Stache
This is a thing of beauty: A blog dedicated to profiling the best mustaches in the Majors. They've also compiled a Hall of Fame for MLB mustaches, including some of my favorites:
Angel great, Bobby Grich, with the classic beauty.
Diamondbacks pitcher, Clay Zavada, with the Throwback
And Rod Beck with my vote for the greatest of all-time.
Also on the list: Dennis Eckersley, Wade Boggs, and the Crime Dog Fred McGriff.

Be a Better Man in 30 Days
In June, our friends over at The Art of Manliness published their "30 Days to a Better Man" and I thought you'd be interested in what they had to say.
Some of my personal faves:
#2) Shine your Shoes
#13) Declutter your Life
#18) "Find your N.U.T.s" (a.k.a. your "Non-Negotiable, Unalterable Terms")
#30) Get a Straight Razor Shave
Even implementing a few of these will certainly increase your manliness and make you a better man to be around. And isn't that what the Manblog is really all about?
Check out all of 30 of their suggestions here.

An A/V Dream
This is the stuff you see on Cribs. Whole house entertainment systems where all your movies, music, TV-watching, radio, security, lighting, etc. are all streamlined into one user-friendly touch-screen interface. It is too good to be true? Perhaps--I've never used one, but a boy can dream, damn it!
Check out the site and let your imagination run wild.
The Most Interesting Man in the World
Watch this video. The first couple minutes are just quotes but about two minutes into it the videos start. You will know how to be a more interesting man for doing so.
The Strenuous Life
I wish to preach, not the doctrine of ignoble ease, but the doctrine of the strenuous life, the life of toil and effort, of labor and strife; to preach that highest form of success which comes, not to the man who desires mere easy peace, but to the man who does not shrink from danger, from hardship, or from bitter toil, and who out of these wins the splendid ultimate triumph. – Theodore Roosevelt

mother, corrected.
my mother just acted offended when she heard a certain "sound" and asked my brother if he "tooted." i immediately corrected her: "kids toot mom, real men fart." there was no rebuttal.
