10 things every man should own...

[Madman]

oh, one other thing, a reliable car in good condition....you never know when a) you'll have to take her out or b) make a quick getaway.......you don't want to be sitting in the driveway with the car cranking over and stalling when her husband/boyfriend comes home early......

VERY GOOD POINT, you need to get away from the hubby and his baseball bat!!

well, that list may apply to some, but seriously, i find it more than a bit pretentious actually. I mean, a lot of it has to do with getting laid...no...? lol...

an instrument? badly? That reminds me of the scene in animal house at the toga party with the guy on the stairs singing "i bought my love a cherry, that had no stone.." then blutto comes along and smashes it against the wall.....I've been at a few camping parties etc where some nob pulls out a guitar and attempts to sing something or play something.....arrrrgh then they turn off the stereo to listen to him butcher a song or two....or you get the divas who can actually play and they become the focus of attention.....like they didn't plan it that way?

Now i've been to a few parties where a number of people play and you get a mini concert....that's cool......

cigars? if you're saving them for a celebration you'll also need a humidor otherwise they'll be crap by the time you have something to celebrate....


clothes for any occasion.....ummm ok if you have deep pockets because I've only ever needed a tux once.....and since i left the corporate world my suits are way out of date......

good table wear? seriously? player, you must have earned your honorary vagina lol.....most of the women i've dated don't really care what it served on, as long as it's good.....(I have a set of $100 wine glassed (4) that have been used...oh....3 times in 20 yrs?) and you forgot a fine lined table cloth.....complete with napkins and you forgot one should know how to fold them....and let's not forget the candlesticks, centerpiece, etc. and if you're going to all that trouble, let's not forget the table to put them all on.....

sporting equipment? sorry, that applies to people in offices or those who have cushy jobs lol....like I have the energy to go play baseball after working construction all day/week in these temps?

The only thing that I would say a guy should have, a good gas bbq and a place to cook on it.....

But if you're getting into frou frou stuff, more important that table wear etc I'd say a good mattress and even better sheets...chicks LOVE it when you have 800 thread count sheets.........(the lowest i'll buy is 400 or so.....i bought some 200 and you could spit through them).

Nah, none of this stuff is used to get laid.:wink2: Well, maybe occasionally.

and don't go knocking the linen table cloth. It speaks volumes!

This here is MY list, not one of those stupid online ones. Please feel free to add your own 'Top 10 Lists".

Let's see how I actually fair.

10. A good wardrobe for any occasion, (including appropriate shoes)

Hmmmm...Work cloths, gym cloths, fighting cloths, jeans and t-shirts, coat for when it's cold, coat for when it's not so cold, and coat for when it's not cold but wet.....Oh, and a cap. That should cover all occasions.

9. A really nice bottle of scotch, tequila or other quality alcohol and a few cigars (for celebratory occasions)

Well seeing as I neither drink nor smoke, possession of the above seem pointless.

8. A decent set of tools

Dremel, full set of exacto knives, assorted sculpting tools, brushes, pallet, pin vice and bits, razor files, etc. Check

7. Good table wear, cutlery and wine glasses

Fork, knife, spoon, sharp knife, glass. That's good.

6. Quality personal grooming products

Says Mennon, good enough.

5. Sports equipment, (football, baseball glove, camping stuff, frisbee, bicycle)

Gloves, shin guards, mouth guard, head gear, cup and shorts. All I need....Other sports are for sissies.

4. A valid passport

Phhht, like I'm telling Big Brother when I'm leaving the country.

3. An instrument (doesn't matter what, so long as you can play something, even badly)

Several

2. Decent linens and towels

Line and towels....No holes, thus decent.

1. Cellular telephone

WTF, you think I live in the stone age?
