    I was sick all day with a man-cold. So I laid on the couch and was pathetic.

    Not that I am passing judgement, (yum) but I am not sure that's cooked.

    Honed three straight razors with my bare hands. (actually I held the razors in my bare hands and dragged them across a variety of stones.) :D

    Played amateur plumber and blew out our slow laundry line with a water bladder on the end of the garden hose.

    I rescued a puppy at work, took it to the vet, and brought it home for my daughter. The vet said she is a healthy mix of Shepherd and Husky. Might weigh around 75 lbs. Only 15 right now. Happy puppy, happy daughter. Not so happy wife.

    You might consider getting a cat... and some hand lotion.

    Cut up some branches that were felled by the wind last night. Chainsaw ran like a top. Amazing what having a good attitude does for my chain saw sharpening and running.

    3 manly things: one cup of black coffee at breakfast and lunch, and a good workout just before dinner.

    Listened to three grown men complain about about each other then tell them how to do their job. Ran 4 different crews through about 6 jobs. Shaved. Cooked 3 steaks on the grill: 1 for about 5 minutes (rare - mine and my sons) 1.5 for 15 for medium rare, .5 for 30 minutes for the wife that likes charcoal steak.

    I assembled a metal shofar stand without using the instructions. Of course, I had to, because none were included.

    The shofar was delivered about an hour after the stand. (The stand came by mail & the shofar came by UPS.). So my next manly task was deodorizing it. That is still a work in progress. Here is a picture;

    Cool looking horn, what are you going to use it for. Just curious, because that one looks like a Texas Longhorn horn. I thought a Shofar was supposed to be made of a "Ram' s Horn" for Jewish religious purposes.

    I will be using it for religious services. I had always thought they were exclusively made of ram's horns, until I started playing one. They can be made from the horn of any animal that is kosher (other than a cow or calf; I don't know why.) and has usable horns. This one is made from a kudu. Being much larger, it produces a deeper, richer sound.
