Thread: SOTD - Sun June 20th - Sat June 26th

Going with the Griffin today (my uncle gave to as a gift a while back; I rescaled and sharpened it....My uncle PJ Winters is dying in the hospital today. He was a selfmade man who never went to college and made his name as a feather weight boxer in the 60's in the Army. He owed several car dealerships down in California after leaving the Army and started up a bunch of boxing clubs down there. He was a tough man who never asked for anything, nor did he hesitate to give to people in need. His manner was gruff and some saw him as somewhat abrasive...I did not..I (like many of us who embrace the old ways) saw him as a blue collar guy who acted as gentleman when expected, and as a "Man to be respected" when required. I am not telling you this for sympathy, nor do I wish for any. I just wanted you all to know there are still a few of us out there who understand what it means to be a "man"...Not just a "male of the human species"....If that makes sense....Of course, I am rambling a little now..Have a great day and hug your daughters; shake hands with your sons (so they know the difference)..grab the fishing poles, or golf clubs and revel in your day!
