I know! Wasn't that *so* weird? Parts of it was filmed in/near my neighborhood.

I vaguely remember reading the book, but the movie confused me as to whether or not it was for real or just in his head. Then again, I've only seen bits and pieces of the movie on cable...

Yeah, but you're taller than ME! I know this for a fact!!!

I'm a guy. I'm supposed to be taller. I just wish I broke that 6'0 barrier.....especially when my dad's 6'4.

70/30? Good deal, we'll drag you to dinner too!

As long as the beer's flowing.....:)

Oh yes you are right absolutely. I knew guido culture had come full circle when BET had a special called 'how i'm living...godfather style'. OMG... Chess King? IROC-Z cars... lol Here I thought my dad driving a Lincoln Town Car was saying something.

Some guy even has a book out on how to live life like a guido now. I was ahead of my time of course, and continue to carry on the tradition of big hair, snapping gum and sergio valente jeans.

LOL! We're going to have to get you into the city. We'll find some non-guido, non-metrosexual guys to ogle. ;)

[shrug] I qualify for about half of the collective lists. So does that make me bi-metro?

Feh...

(...he said with all the grace of a bull in a china shop...)

Just damn.

If you want on the new list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

It not looking good for me. What's a heterosexual going to do in the brave new world of girly men?

Crush your enemies
See them driven before you
And hear their lamentations of their women.

Works for me anyway .....

Metrophobe.

Damn, you found me out.

But I must admit, men that faun over themselves and are activity trying to be in touch with their feminine side make me want to hurl.

Perhaps you're an out of the closet metrophobe like me. :)

Maybe someone should start a metrophobe society and coop the word before the leftist get it put into hate thought laws.

Well --- it just seems like the butch lesbians who you sometimes see with the more feminine lesbians could just as easily like metrosexuals.

I guess there are women who don't mind sharing their make-up and face creams with their boyfriends or husbands and don't mind that the man spends 3 hours in the bathroom every morning and takes up a lot more space in the closet.

"Does this make me a metrosexual? Or does being a bambi killing, flag waving, gun toting, church going,
bar-b-que eating, right-wing, hockey watching, pro-life, Ann Coulter reading, Toby Keith listening female
disqualify me?"

HOO-AH... If I weren't married... LOL
My wife teases me... She says she's gonna get the "Queer Eye" guys to give me a makeover. I told her that there'd be 5 bodies on our front steps. I told her I can already cook, and sew on a button or take up a pair of pants. I also like large caliber weapons, fishing, country music & NASCAR.
