I can walk to the store and back in a hurricane.

I can take a punch.

I can make women scream with pleasure.

I climbed a cliff.

I went swimming in the Pacific Ocean in Oregon, without a wetsuit.

Impress my grandpa?? Well, I could smash a can against my forehead. They both lived in the days of tin cans and wouldn't know we've switched over to alumininum.

The Chief Justice of California and several state legislators know me by name. I think that'd impress them.

I know nothing about that plant but a WEEK ??? Why not use a shovel and then chop the roots. I took down a 35 foot tree using that method ( that and a pickup truck that I attached to the stump)

The Flax bush in this picture is small, the one I ripped out was probably twice as large with furry white 'flowers' that attack you.

Because of where the plant was, I had no way of pulling it out by vehicle.

I also used a shovel, infact that was my best tool, but the thing is with this flax, is that I had to cut so much flax leaves out of the way just to reach the stump, but when I reached the stump, I realised that I would need to cut all of the leaves off before I could even begin to get the stump out. I've gotten tree stumps out easier than this with a shovel and axe (to cut the roots).
I've learned a great lesson with uprooting flax bushes. They are damn tough plants and they can cut if you're not careful. I spent about 2 hours a day on it.

Don't you piss standing up ?


Mind you, so did Margaret Thatcher.

My paternal grandfather. according to him, spent almost the entire war clearing brush for new training camps.

Then he opened Canada's first Dairy Queen.

Then he abandoned my grandmother with 7 kids in rural 50s ontario.

So, I'd say having no sense of responsibility is the closest I come to something my grandfather considered manly. That and an appreciation for whiskey.

My grandmother on the other hand...flew transport planes in european theatre and raised 7 kids on her own in rural 50s ontario in a mixed prot/cath marriage. She's the 'manly' one.

Huh - My grandfather is more the Plato type than the Brutus one. He'd be more glad to know that I'm in University right now studying political science and history than to know that I'm working out 6 days a week and that I have Brad Pitt's abs...

So can I.


I go round with a box of Belgian truffles, a copy of Cosmo and some Nurofen plus when my friend's having her period, and you won't believe the screams of pleasure.

Ok where's the fine line between white trash and manly ?

[Japher]

What sort of manly things can you do that your grandfather would respect?
