Book recommendation: Sissy Nation

I am not going to write a detailed review because I now have better things to do than sit around typing like a sissy. But I will say this…

I don’t care if you’re a guy, a gal, or still undecided, forget getting a tattoo, forget riding that mechanical bull, and for godsake leave that sheep alone. If you want to toughen up and stop being such a sissy, grab a copy of John Strausbaugh’s Sissy Nation.

Careful though, the pages are sharp. I found out the hard way with a nasty paper cut on my pinky. But did I go crying to my wife like I used to do? Hell no. I kept reading and just let it bleed. In fact, it’s still bleeding now. But I’m not complaining. What do you think I am, a sissy?

I’m just picturing John Wayne’s reaction as he watches Strausbaugh plugged into his iPod when running in the gym.

Strausbaugh goes to the gym?

Damn, I have a lot more work to do than I thought.

At least I can take my iPod when I go; I don’t think I could stand being without the soundtrack to The Little Mermaid for that long.

Did I just say that out loud?
