I’ve already called and wished my very understanding Mother a Happy Mother’s Day, so I also wanted to wish another random Mother a Happy Mother’s Day, too.
Again, totally at random…
Angie, may I call you Angie? Happy Mother’s Day.
Also, a little Mother’s Day chuckle from a classic film.
Seriously, let your Mom know how special she is. Thanks for reading!
Charles Ramsey is our hero of the week. Seriously, he assisted in the biggest rescue any of us can remember, and he gives the best interview any of us can remember.
Hats off to you, Mr. Ramsey – and to McDonalds! Charles, you weren’t famous – – – until now hehe!
Working Out is important, but not fun – like doing your taxes, getting a physical, or taking college classes (and trying to get good grades).
Men are all about getting there. Men will only go and workout if;
1. The weather is good enough (Not too hot or too cold),
2. There’s isn’t alot of traffic on the roads,
3. He can find a *good* parking space at the gym parking lot,
4. The cute gal is working at the juice bar,
5. He can find an eye-level locker,
6. He can find an open treadmill next to the water fountain,
you get the idea.
Women and working out takes on a whole new level of must haves. To go work out, the lady must have;
1. The *right* Work Out shoes, which must *go* with
2. The matching Work Out outfit with
3. The matching Water Bottle with
4. The matching earbud cords with
5. The matching bag to carry it all in.
Don’t believe that they think like this? Take it away Glamorous Gaby 1!!!
Moments that stand out;
“Yoga pants provide “cute coverage”” What’s cute coverage?? I thought it was Kristen Bell with a mic and camera on the Oscar Red Carpet. Besides, men are usually against coverage of cute. Ya know.
A “popping print” headband. Guys would reach for a Rambo or Keith Richards headband. No popping print, just a place to soak up the sweat (if there is an open treadmill, of course).
Gals wear earrings to work out? Earrings?
Great tip about the water, btw. Thanks.
“Sparkly” Tennis Shoes. Is this a “Twilight” thing?
“Low Key” Workout Outfit??? Now you’re talking. I’ll just wear my U2 Joshua Tree shirt , Chucks and Big ‘ol shorts down to my knees with a thousand pockets on em to do my “low key” workout (Which includes relaxation (Latin for a nap)) and focusing my Chi on my Xbox360 .
“I knotted up a loose tank to make the outfit look ‘effortless'” Well, guys are the kings of making outfits look effortless, without the knotted tank.
“The knot I made on the side is a “90’s” knot” 90’s knot??? Where is this list of decade knots? I’ll bet a 60’s knot is real crazy.
I don’t know what a “cute sweatshirt” is. Now unless it’s 20 below, I’m a no-sweatshirt kinda guy.
Spandex, ahh! Now, you’re talking. Don’t judge, but for us ‘hefty’ guys, spandex boxer shorts are great for us bigger gents walking (No chaffing). I took all cotton boxer to Walt Disney World one time and almost died. Spandex boxers, that’s the ticket gents.
Thanks Gaby for giving us guys a glimpse into what women go through to get dressed up and go workout.
Guys get dressed in clothes that fit, and if it goes together, its a miracle.
This is the goofiest Mick Jagger video – ever. Let’s Work – out! Lose weight and kill poverty, right Mick?
So, guys or ladies, what are your thoughts on getting dressed up to work out?
There are songs that you don’t like, but for some reason they are like the newest “In Search of Nessie/Big Foot/A Really Good Star Wars Video Game” show, you get hooked and can’t walk away.
Muskrat Love is one of those things. I haven’t taken the time to see if songs about animal love are even legal, but I will keep listening and take the risk of PETA coming to my house (hopefully they send pretty ladies directly after a photo shoot).
So, I was on http://grooveshark.com (It’s like youtube for music) and then it happened, I typed M-U-S-K-R-A-T L-O-V-E and there it was. Ny audio nemesis – Muskrat Love
recorded by a duo that created some of the catchiest pop/synth songs in the 70’s, Captain (Not a real Captain. I think he found the hat on sale, or something) and Tennille.
Now, if that was the only version, that would be bad enough, but the cooly cruel Grooveshark drags you deeper into its web of awful (ly good) 70’s novelty hits. C&T weren;t the first to record this Amorous Ondatra song, here is the original by Willis Alan Ramsey
I love Women (especially my lovely, very, very, very understanding wife), but there is a huge difference between how long it takes a guy to get ready, compared to a gal.
Let’s say it’s a dinner for an elderly family member’s birthday. The guy feverishly searches through the mysterious mound at the bottom of the closet of; shirts that don’t fit anymore, MC Hammer pants and two different kinds of flip flops to reveal “The Really Good Shoes”. The guy feels like Indiana Jones discovering a lost treasure, then spies a Motely Crue headband he wore to the concert he took Ellen “Best Cherry Stem Tie-r in the whole school” Smith to. His mind goes back to High School and all the fun he had.
“Are you ready to go, honey?” The voice of a woman running around breaks him from his day dreaming, “Yes,” he says. “You’d better be. We don’t want to be late!” Annoyed, he responds “Alright!”
Men and Women view shoes differently. Women own lots and lots of shoes.
When a shoe closet has its own;
Zip Code,
Bathroom, and
Search and Rescue Team – there is a problem
Now, Men love Women in stylish (That’s Latin for High Heel) shoes. Here is how Men dream of the TSA at the airport…
Men would fly so much more and hide all kinds of water bottles all over. Anyway, back to shoes.
Normally, Men only own a few types of shoes; Tennis Shoes (Funny, Men own these type of shoes but never play tennis.) Work Out Shoes (See comment above and insert Work Out for Tennis)
One Flip Flop (Where the other one is a mystery, until you move – or your significant other makes you clean up your bedroom, then you find 2 more. The mystery never ends…) Work Shoes Church Shoes (These should be Hole-y, though. See what I did there. :pause: Okay, let’s move on then.) Shoes you paint in (These used to be your Tennis or Work Out Shoes, but now they look like they’ve been in a Tug of War with a Pit Bull and The Alien from “Alien”.
Weird shoes (You don’t know why Men own them, they just do)
