This has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on sailing, but I caught a little snippet of NPR this morning that I found quite amusing and I thought I'd pass along.
Morning Edition, June 12, 2009 · Two brothers from Indiana declared Monday to be "National Man Day." They say that on Man Day, participants should play football, go hunting or watch Rocky movies. And a quarter of a million people pledged to "stand up and do manly things."
So all you manly men can grill manly hunks of meat (yes, Michael you too), drink beer without a coaster, chug the milk carton right out of the fridge, leave the toilet seat up and the empty toilet paper roll on the holder and we women won't say a word.
Oh wait... I forgot to put the last sentence of the NPR report in here...
Organizers didn't realize Monday is also "Sneak a Kiss Day," when sweethearts are supposed to be a little romantic.
Ooops.
(or how to move onto a sailboat) With the advent of our 50th birthdays came the usual sorts of life evaluations that one goes through. At what have I succeeded? What contributions have I made? What do I have left that I want to do before I die? Living on the water was high on both our lists. For any who share the dream, and for our family members who might not understand, this is our story. We don't know where it will take us, but welcome along for the ride!
