How to Mow the Lawn
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I bought this book for my Dad for Father's Day, and it was a huge hit. It looks at all the things that make men men - but in an affectionate rather than chauvinistic way. It also instructs on the lost art of being a bloke in todays climate of the modern metro-sexual.
Not so Common Sense
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I think this book is brilliant. It touches on a variety of things men "should" know, that may be common sense, but truthfuly don't really know. It is enough of the basics to actually make one a starting functional in a variety of areas, but it is neither a difficult read nor a blow to the ego of the reader. Brilliantly written, organized, and with an unspoken message of remembering traditional values of "the man". The book is true to it's title, and people who miss the connection just don't get it.

The perfect Father's Day or stocking stuffer joke gift!!!

This is a hilarious, clever book that is perfect for poking gentle fun at the man in your life, whether dad, husband, or brother. The book is done in a kitschy 50's style that makes it even more fun to peruse.
