noy sure if they are boxers or not, but note the anklet socks in his low top tennis shoes

I've got one of those, only a bit larger. Throws snow better than I expected. Runs for over 30 minutes on a charge... never ran it to deplete battery, yet. Got it free, brand new... never was used... came with a charger, but no battery. Battery was $170, and it powers my chainsaw, too.

I can use blower on my driveway at 3 AM without waking my neighbors.

I believe the term is metrosexual.

I used to work with a guy like that. Brightly colored shoes, anklet socks, little leather man purse, always talking about drinking expensive alcohol. He used to play jazz in his office with the volume just loud enough that everyone was aware he was listening to jazz. It was all an act. I know it was all an act because nobody actually likes jazz.

What brand? I got sucked into the Ryobi ecosystem. I'm really happy with most of their battery op tools, even the chainsaw. The whipper snipper is a joke though, but so far that's the only exception. I'm soft and lazy and if the snow blower is even remotely decent I might order one if it saves some shoveling.

WHAT? Not a lot beats relaxing in a jazz bar although I will admit there is one particular genre I don't like and that is the disjointed 'free jazz' which is nearly as bad a noise as rap.

As to the shorts, no bloke is a bloke unless he has a pair of black shorts. Standard dress for any occasion, any weather. A black woolen singlet in the wardrobe is also mandatory.

Those shoes are a worry, he'll catch his death in those. What he needs are a good pair of Skellerup's.

They call that snow? In Iowa, where I worked for years, that is a nice spring day.

Lets see how that blower works when it is two feet thick and the truck clearing the street has just dumped all that on the driveway - ON TOP OF THE TWO FEET ALREADY THERE!

You sure wouldn't want to go to New Orleans and say that, and what would classical jazz be without Louis Armstrong. What poses for jazz today is about as far removed as what poses for rock & roll or Country or Pop, even Rap has deteriorated to be nearly unrecognizable
