Guy Therapy

Women go to the spa to relax - but what about guys?

How about this one - People At Play.

As Tim 'The Tool Man' Taylor would say, "Diesel exhaust fumes...the smell of hot hydraulic oil...ah-oh-oh-oh!"

My $.002


If you have 30 minutes;

Head to your old fashioned barber shop for a haircut and a shave, real old smelly Italian barbers, not metrostylists, talk about women, sports, and local idiot politicians.


If you have 2 hours;

Grab a beer or coffee and watch either Casablanca, The Searchers, A Bridge Too Far,Bullit, Blazing Saddles, or The Pink Panther.


If you have a day;

Grab a buddy and go fishing or hunting, catch or kill something and eat it.

I'm with you Bob,
If i need to relax, it's off to the range.
Unfortunately here in S Florida it's the indoor range.
Even though they are set up for anythihng up to 50BMG.
Nothing takes my mind off life for a while than putting lead thru one small hole.
Ok trying at least.

A trip to the range out in the hills with some of the guys from work. We shoot a little and talk a lot.

I must admit that Guy's prescription could have the makings of a manifesto.....

I’ll just sit in some shade on the lawn with a good dog, and maybe a good book.
