Man Card
 

Re: Man Card
 

Lesse....

Epic beard? Yup.
Rescue kitten from a tree? Yup.
Smoke tobacco from a pipe? Well...I smoked SOMETHING from a pipe...does that count? :)
Drink Glenlivet 18 neat? Hell...I'd drink Old FedCal neat!
Be 1/10 as manly as Steve McQueen? I think he'd have done good to be 1/10 as manly as you or me!
Rebuild engine? That was a boyhood rite of passage where I grew up!
Everything else is on my "to do" list...

Re: Man Card
 

for me, it was over before it started...

cant grow ANY beard...in fact, i only have to shave twice per week
dont(and wont) smoke or drink
dont care to rescue a cat for any reason
have never had a reason to rebuild a motor...always have taken good care of cars
huge face scar? rattle snake bite? no thanks

i'd like to learn to weld and would carry a buckskin knife however
as for the rest...i'm too busy working to provide for my family

Re: Man Card
 

my man card list:

continue to date your wife long after the wedding day
work hard w/out complaining and make it to work sick or hurt
help a stranger w/out expecting anything in return
love and laugh unconditionally
make a person or place better than before you met or visited
give to charity in whatever fashion you are able
know your weaknesses and work to correct them
stop and smell the roses and count your blessings
protect the weak

no doubt, there are others...

Re: Man Card
 

So far my wife and I are pretty much tied on the Man Card. :-/

Re: Man Card
 

Hope, that doesn't include the beard.

Re: Man Card
 

The beard gives me a point up on her. She can actually weld, while I cannot. She has rescued a kitten from a tree, while I have a face scar. I am about to rebuild my first engine, while she has survived a (big spider) bite. We both like to hike... you get the picture.

Re: Man Card
 

Nice list!!

Re: Man Card
 

thanks

Re: Man Card
 

Great list for real men!!!!!

Re: Man Card
 

My man card is simple; Be the head of the family and don't let your wife ever believe she can hold any leverage on you.

I want to be a role model for my sons when searching for a wife and a role model for my daughters when searching for a husband.

I don't have anything on that right column, haven't hiked an Appalachian trail or entered a lumberjack contest. As far as the scar goes.... Well, I have a big one diagonally across my nose from when my truck decided to break my nose instead of give up a part... but everything else I have definitely done. Last year, I didn't shave once from the beginning of September until New years, but I quit smoking years ago.... I only used a pipe for fun for a little while. Kittens, bucks, Knives, welding, engine, done. Steve McQueen? Well, I should hope I'm at least 1/10th as manly...

I'll see that list and add that I have been raising my three young boys all by myself for 2 years now, without help or support from anyone else. Does single dad make up for Rattlesnake and log cabin? I've actually never even seen a person try and steal a purse in real life...
