Convict Chili Recipe
I watched Labor Day the other night and Frank, an escaped convict played by Josh Brolin, cooked up a pretty awesome chili. (A good coming-of-age movie, by the way, highlighting the importance of fathers.) Here is my take on his recipe which I have dubbed Convict Chili.

Fireside Topic: What is a good age to get married?
I got married when I was just over 18 years old and let me tell you, it was a hard road for many years. Getting married young certainly has its benefits, but it also comes with its challenges. Perhaps this is what worries me when I see teens (or close to) planning their ...

How to Cook Bacon…Shirtless
“Bacon’s not the only thing that’s cured by hanging from a string.” – Hugh Kingsmill, English Writer, 1889 – 1949

In What Area of Your Life Do You Need More Patience?
For years people have speculated, and recent studies seem to give credence to, those with impatience and anger problems tend to have high blood pressure. Whether or not our lack of patience is affecting us in obvious physical ways, it is still a manly virtue.
Patience is defined:

U.S. Navy SEAL Code

Fireside Topic: If you could choose any career what would it be?
It isn’t uncommon for men to get started down a career path that was once exciting and rewarding only to find that, years later, they don’t have the same passion for it they once did. While it isn’t wise to up and quit our job simply because it doesn’t thrill us like it once ...

Captains of Industry: Brandon Griswold – Graphic Designer, Printmaker, & Author of Manly Marks
I came across Mr. Brandon Griswold and his Manly Marks book quite by accident. While searching for images for another article, I noticed one for a Manly Marks book. “What is this!?”, I immediately proclaimed to myself. The title and simple cover alone was worth a solid look. As it ...

Fireside Topic: What qualities make for a good family?
Images of the 1950’s nuclear family and most family oriented sitcoms give off the vibe that being a family, the kind of family you would want to have, comes naturally. Even real-life families that seem to have it all together can come across that way as well. Truth is, most families that you ...

Fireside Topic: What is one thing you most want to change about yourself (physical or character)?
If we are honest, there are many things we would like to change about ourselves; our quick tempers, our weight, our lack of muscle mass, our poor self-control, our intellect, our boldness, our hairline…you get the idea. However, keeping a random list of our perceived flaws can make actually changing any of them difficult, since ...
