We desperately need a manly thread.

We have had two mice caught in traps so far this winter in the garage. Wife hates the things. Getting home tonight at 7:30pm and the lights from the car were showing to the north of our house and thirty foot out I see the snow moving. Mouse was tunneling through the snow above ground. I hit the high beams and jumped out of the car. Got about ten foot from him and he stopped. We had a ten second show down and I started the approach. He headed east with me in full chase. He made it another ten feet or so and got the stopping of a lifetime. He was a biggun too, twice the size of the other two caught earlier. Left him there to serve as a warning to the other mice, moles, voles, and shrews.

And wheres my Charles Bronson Cologne???

Standing your ground in the face of a bull mouse at full charge, then defeating him in personal combat!

You are now a member of an elite group. Here is our battle cry.

Hey 4J, I'm not sure it is manly to play that nice old Tele with only 5 strings. No bottom har har.

Best regards from ND.
 
Where I live I am surrounded by woods, farm land, and a few bayous. I have cotton tail rabbits coming through my yard all the time. If one of the red tail hawks don't get them then the big brown owl does. Every now and then my .177 Benjamin gets them.
A few days ago I had one cornered. I was going to grab him and whack em until I saw my neighbors 6 year old daughter, eyes wide as saucers and her mouth wide open, watching my every move. As I slowly backed away,my jambalaya/gumbo main coarse hopped away! But, the smile on the little girls face was priceless. :)

+1. You don't have to kill them all. Just identify a ringleader and make an example of him.
 
I can't help but wonder if this prime example of why one should stay in school is your hero....

In an unrelated thread, tork'd brought up a good point about the disturbing trend in topic titles and content.

Currently we are discussing:

Movies that make men cry.
Herbal tea.
Sexy music.

And a week or so back someone was talking about knitting!

It's about time someone started talking about manly things again.

Never one to hesitate to steal someone's idea, I'll start.

I play slide guitar with a chopped down maw deuce empty.

Yer missin' a string there, Keef! :D

I've whittled my formerly massive guitar collection down to two now, so no Tele anymore.

But I do have a hardtail Stratocaster, that's manly guitar! It wears a custom set of L-280S noiseless singles wound for me by Becky Lawrence when they were still in Bethlehem.

My 'other' guitar is a Martin D-18.
 
I always considered myself manly until about 50. For some reason about then hair started growing in and out of my ears. Where in the world did that come from? So I am forced to use my wife's eyebrow tweezers to keep my ears presentable.Very humbling....

Do y'all play any music in blues and classical scales?

In the "Manly" department at the grocery store you will find electroninc hair "cutter-thingies" that handle that job...in a manly manner.
