What's the deal with man things? I never get tired of them. I will try on watches, money clips, pinky rings, zippo lighters, and cuff links all day long. There is just something about them, like there is something about a shave with a razor blade from a barber shop, or something about a real shoe shine or a monogrammed shirt. Whilst sorting through my belongings, I noticed I have lots of man things. Of which I am the most proud are my brass zippo that I bought in Las Vegas in about 1992 and my monogrammed money clip from the Lufkin mall from 1996. Only a real man enjoys drinking Irish whiskey from a hip flask with the flip-top screw-on lid. Never undervalue an over sized coffee cup with a history. Other man things include that brush used to apply homemade shaving cream, and those cover things that hold business cards. You are my kind of guy if you can name more than 3 colors for business cards. I'm the guy that holds onto that graduation pen set for a few years, then replace the ink and enjoy the writing of a well-balanced heavy black pen. Check this site out, I recommend the roller ball with the chiselled tartan finish. If you have any man things you want to mention, then email me.

Your Stylish Man,
Mack Austin Esquire
