So today I replaced the front brakes and rotors on my daughters Ford Escape, then changed her oil (full synthetic).

After that, I replaced several brake lights/marker lights on my wife's Intrepid.

Yep, feeling sorta manly right now. A little sore so I guess I'll draw a hot bath.

Oh, was the last bit a little too far? Damn; I almost had it too.

If working on stuff polishes the "man card" then mine might just about be worn out. Or at least look like chrome.

Good job. [Awesom]

I'll let the hot bath comment slide since you didn't actually refer to it as a "bubble bath". [Beer]

After the bath make sure you use a nice hand lotion with Shea Butter to prevent those unsightly calists on your hands.

No need for the Shea butter, the loofah takes care of that issue.

Is "Polishing the Man Card" what the kids are calling it these days?
Too much polishing and you'll go blind.

Just for the record, I like y'all, but I don't want to get into a hot tub with any of you'z guyz.

The wife unit only only has that frilly smelling stuff, no Mr. Bubble in the house since the kids grew up.

Just a slight side track here.

A guy at work once bought a hot tub and told us it was a "six man hot tub".

We told him it was perfectly acceptable to let women in it too. If he wanted too.

You're supposed to polish it and then put it back in your wallet, not hand it to your wife.

I woke up today and said that I will paint the dinning room. Just one room. I was thinking I'd start at 1:00 and be done by 2:00. Well, I started at 2:00 and just now finished. I guess I painted the kitchen as well, but it was really only the ceiling, so it hardly counts. Painting sucks.

There is NOTHING like soaking in a hot tub after spending all weekend hiking and camping in the cold.

I went to Pull and Pay to track down some odds and ends for the trucks. Unbolted 'em myself. That's just like killing and cleaning your own food, right?.....Right?

Inside of a week, changed the oil and fuel filter on my diesel, hunted pheasant, put up insulation and drywall in the garage.

Probably womanly for some of the hardcore blue collar guys here, but quite manly for a white collar 50's something fat dude IMHO. :D

I need to get off this damn board and go finish the last mud coat on that drywall so I can texture/paint it this week and put up the shelving.

I'll give you a pass on the bath since you worked on 2 cars, cutting it a little close though

I figure if you use the Hoppes #9 smelling bubble bath, then it's OK.
