Bourbon Company Leaves a Bad Taste with Customers

Wed, 06 Mar 2013 05:10:36 GMT

There has been a lot of drama in the bourbon world in the past few weeks, especially if you’re a fan of the brand Maker’s Mark. The popular spirit, distilled in Loretto, Kentucky, has long been known for its distinctive square bottle, red wax seal, and alcohol content a guy could get a good buzz from – U.S. 90 proof (that would be 45% alcohol by volume). But, in an unprecedented move, the company announced in mid-February that it would be reducing the alcoholic content of its flagship spirit from 45 percent to 42 percent (meaning it’s now 84 proof). Gasp! Apparently, the company, face with a large demand for the product decided that it would be okay to “stretch the supply” by watering down the liquor by three percent. Pretty sure they didn’t cut the price to reflect the lower content, of course.

Low-Budget Lotharios Love Fast Food on February 14th

Wed, 30 Jan 2013 06:40:14 GMT

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, you may be looking for that special place to wine and dine your sweetie. But if you’re in a bind and on a budget, what’s a guy to do? Many restaurants take advantage of February 14th jack up their prices on everyday entrees or push expensive prix-fixed menus as the only dining option. This practice is highway robbery at best, and certainly no gift for men trying to stay out of the red. Taking her to a steak house will fillet your wallet wide open and the only catch-of-the-day at a snazzy seafood restaurant will be you, poor sucker, as they hook you with the idealistic ambiance and reel you in with gallons of guilt. But if you’re looking for a less-expensive way to celebrate with dinner on this quintessential day of love, you have to think outside the box – err, actually you have to think inside the box this time!

How To Get Over a Valentine’s Day Break-up

Wed, 23 Jan 2013 04:20:03 GMT

Break ups, they happen, and often just right before Valentine’s Day. On February 12, 2004, Mattel icons Barbie and Ken called it quits after 43 years together. Even though they hit it off on a 1961 TV commercial set, the plastic pair apparently have “remained friends” but separated due to irreconcilable differences. Some say it was Ken’s cold-feet when it came to a marriage commitment, others speculated that Barbie’s attentions drifted to Blaine, an Australian surfer new on the doll scene. Living, breathing celebrities also seem to lose that loving feeling in the dead of winter as well. For example, Seal and Heidi Klum, Katy Perry and Russell Brand, and Britney Spears and Jason Trawick all called it quits pre Valentine’s Day.

Procrastinators Can Find Last-Minute Gifts at Guyville.com

Thu, 29 Nov 2012 06:58:39 GMT

Today’s men and some women are notorious for putting off holiday shopping until the very last minute; it’s a tradition seemingly as old as giving gifts in the first place! If we lived back in the day of ancient Egypt and Rome, our propensity to delay a task, such as holiday gift shopping at the market, would be seen as prudent and wise. However, around the mid-1700s, society’s tolerance to taking one’s sweet time to accomplish a task swung then other way and thus the negative connotation of procrastination came into being.

Useful Holiday Gifts for Practical Guys

Thu, 08 Nov 2012 02:08:49 GMT

The holidays are approaching at a rapid rate and you may have started to worry about what to give the guy in your life. Every man I know loves things that are practical and simple, unfussy items that offer a utilitarian value that he’ll use day after day, year after year. Women tend to give gifts for men that that miss this mark and come with the subtle (or in your face) message that they’d like you to change in some way. For example, a woman might pick a jacket or sweater from the latest designer cut in the latest style and color because she thinks the guy could dress a little better. However, most guys would rather just have a new hoodie to stay warm, not the GQ jacket -- am I right?

Scary Good Beers for Halloween

What would Halloween be without candy . . . and beer? Most of the guys we know would like to take on the holiday with a “treat” of beer. In fact, in our neighborhood, it’s not uncommon for the dads accompanying their children to go trick-or-treating for beer at the doorsteps of friends. The kids get Snickers bars and dad gets a frosty brew; sounds like a win-win situation. While it might be difficult and not too safe to walk the neighborhood with one of our nice personalized glass beer mugs in hand (leave these at home please), you can slip a can or bottle into a personalized beer koozie for the jaunt out with your little goblins.

Callous Removal Made Easy for Men

Fri, 17 Aug 2012 22:02:42 GMT

If you work out with weights frequently at the gym, developing thick calluses on the palms of hands is inevitability. Those worried about keeping baby-soft skin could try gloves, but gloves interfere with your grip and ability to get feedback from the bar (not to mention making you look like a sissy). Instead, it’s best to let the protective nature of your body go to work and build up thickened skin. However, you’ll need to regularly groom these calluses to keep them from getting too raised, pinching and ripping off. Trust me; this last horror can be a painful, bloody mess.

Wallet Stuff, How it All Started for Guys

Today, guys carry around wallets packed with all types of stuff including cash, check books, credit cards, identification, photos of loved ones and more. Because a man relies heavily on the use of his wallet, the accessory has been elevated into a status symbol of sorts. A fine leather wallet always makes a thoughtful and generous gift for men and a gift for men that you know they will actually use day in and day out. As an alternative to a wallet, especially if only carrying a few bills, some men prefer to carry a money clip in leather or metal.

However, there are certain gifts that women tend to pick out because they like them and just assume men should too. Here are a few that fall into that category:

Attention all Men! Smoke Cigars and Save on Taxes!

The popularity of smoking a stogie is on the rise and saving a buck may be the reason why. Since a 2009 tax hike by the federal government on cigarettes, the use of cigars and pipe tobacco has soared according to a new government report. Because pipe tobacco and cigars are both taxed at a lower rate than cigarettes, those guys keeping a mindful eye on their budget, yet don’t want to give up a vice, have made the switch. This means that giving gifts for men who enjoy “the leaf” is even more stylish and sensible than ever.

Steak House Sticker Shock? Grill Steaks for Dad Instead

If you’re thinking about talking dear ole dad out to a fancy steak house to celebrate Father’s Day, you might want to think again. Unless you just inherited a small fortune (which you probably haven’t considering Dad is still alive, well and clamoring for his carnivorous fix), you’ll need to be prepared to shell out about $100 per person. This is what a steak dinner in a traditional, a la carte steakhouse such as Morton’s, Ruth’s Chris or Sullivans will cost – and, if you add on a nice bottle of wine (you are the reason he started to drink, after all), the bill could be much, much higher.

Has Dad Lost His Wallet? Replace it for Father’s Day

Have you ever lost your wallet? If so, it’s a complete disaster – not just because of cash that will never be seen again, but also the chore of canceling credit, ATM and identification cards. When I lost my wallet last year, perhaps the most painful item to go missing was the customer loyalty card I had at the Burger Barn – just one more stamp and I could have gotten a double-patty gut buster for free. Also, it was sad to say goodbye to that nice leather wallet I had received as a Father’s Day gift several years back, thankfully it was replaced by my wife and kids at the next Father’s Day. Apparently gifts for men who lose things also come with chastising comments – from the kids (talk about tables turned). I remember my teenage son saying that I needed to hook up a nice chain from my belt loop to this new awesome leather wallet – ha!

Mad Men: Executive Gifts For Men

Sun, 03 Jun 2012 20:39:40 GMT

The Emmy-winning television show, Mad Men, is back on the air Sunday night for its fourth season. This AMC drama about the golden age of advertising in New York City is so authentic in capturing the vibe of 1960s style you can practically smell the cigarette smoke wafting through the room. The main male characters, ad-execs Don Draper and Sterling Cooper, are the stereotypical ego-driven sales men in their slim grey suits, narrow ties and cufflinks striking deals over martini fueled lunches at the Stork Club. In fact, the nostalgic wardrobe choices are also sometimes woven into the plot of the show. For example, the cufflink, a small accessory on its own, plays a big role in the "Marriage of Figaro" episode from the first season where Don breaks his cufflink, flirts with his department-store heiress client over it, she gifts him with a new pair from the store, and later in the evening (after a rendezvous together), he glances over at his cufflinks sitting on the night table as a silent reminder of his responsibilities at home. Adulterer or not, a pair of shiny cufflinks always makes a fabulous choice in luxury gifts for men.

Tips For Guys About Tipping

Sun, 03 Jun 2012 20:39:35 GMT

The act of tipping can often raise a lot of questions and debates; it seems everyone has an opinion about how large or little of a gratuity to leave. While it is widely accepted that 15 to 20% is the norm when tipping the waiter or waitress at a sit-down restaurant, it seems that the exact amount isn’t necessarily tied to performance. Research has shown that tippers tip more from fear of social disapproval than they do for actual good service. Oh, and they tip to “feel good” too, from assuaging guilt over being in a higher economic position or just because the sun is shining.
