I LIVE BY A CODE

A Retrosexual not only eats red meat, he often kills it himself.

Mmmmm... I'm just about finished my freezer full of kangaroo from my last hunting trip. May have to head out again soon to restock.

A Retrosexual knows how to tie a Windsor knot when wearing a tie - and ONLY a Windsor knot.

Is that the same as what we in Australia call a Double Windsor knot?

A retrosexual knows how to say the Pledge properly, and with the correct emphasis and pronunciation. He also knows the words to the Star Spangled Banner.

I can recite the Pledge and I think I know all the words to the Star Spangled Banner (it's been a couple of months).

A Retrosexual man can drive in snow (hell, a blizzard) without sliding all over or driving under 20 mph, without anxiety, and without high-centering his ride on a plow berm.

Um, never seen snow in my life (like millions of other Aussies).

My additon to the Code (Australian Rules):

A Retrosexual man must have had at least one close call with one or more of the following:
Redback Spider, Funnel Web Spider, Blue Ringed Octopus, shark (Wobbegongs do NOT count), snake (red-belly-black snake minimum), box jellyfish, crocodile.

A Retrosexuals favorite color is plaid and style is flannel. Hunter orange and insulated is an acceptable substitute during the months of November and December.

Part of the Retrosexuals creed is God, Honor and Country and will fight to the death to preserve that creed.

Loved the post. Yup, checking off the list I'm DEFINITELY married to a retrosexual(thank God!)man. And we raised two retro. sons.

In my part it is GOD, country & CORPS!

Semper Fi!

Your nephew is a wise man.

I DO take issue with one point.

He mentioned the Godfather Trilogy.....................

GF III was weak, Ask him if we can substitute.

Thanks a bunch.

I gotta run down to my Dad's place. His house was fire damaged, but he's got it fixed up now.

His computer printer and monitor were DOA and he bought new ones and I'm gonna get him set up again.

See ya'll later ....

I don't own ANY shoes.

My daily footwear? Boots.
My semi-formal footwear? Dress boots.
My formal footwear? Spit-polished dress boots.
If I run for exercise, I wear jungle boots... gettin' a little long in the tooth to put in 3 miles in paras.

what sort of retro does that make me?

[King Prout]

"...crocodile"

ok, now hold up - can it be a freshie, or does it HAVE to be a saltie?

A retrosexual knows how to say the Pledge properly, and with the correct emphasis and pronunciation. He also knows the words to the Star Spangled Banner.

Might I add that he also knows to remove his hat and which hand covers his heart. Other than that, this lady agrees.

Cleaning" your 12 guage pump in the living room when the scum comes to pick her up, now that's the way to go.

Or better yet, show the little twerp his date's 12 gauge pump.

I love it! Bring back real men!

At the risk of complete embarrassment...what's an endcap??
