The long-awaited (not) early HNT from Guam ...

I recently bought some-kick ass work gloves for household jobs and other instances when I need to do manual labor — demolishing houses, lugging equipment, chopping down trees for lumber, building skyscrapers, etc.

It's hard to find gloves that I both like and that fit me, so it was a pleasant find. These have little zip lines in the back, at the wrist, that allow you to cinch them up tight, with a clever release so it's not a bitch to undo. Also, if you look closely, you will see little pockets on the back of the middle two fingers. This allows the wearer to easily pull the gloves off by hooking fingers from the other hand into them. Nice, huh?
This is a break from my normal HNT, as some of you may have noticed. Look closely. Look again.

That's right ... I'm wearing a shirt!! No topless DZER this week (for which, I'm positive, many of you are uber-thankful). Though I must confess, I'm STILL half-nekkid ... heh ;)

To the right is me in my bandana. I need to wear this, or one similar, when I do physical, exerting work. Why? Because I sweat buckets when undertaking physical activity (as most fat men do LOL). To keep it out of my eyes (which stings, for those who haven't had to ever exert themselves). If I'm working outdoors, it also keeps my skull from getting sunburned. I usually wear one of these under my golf hat for both of those reasons.

Random Guam Fact Of The Day:
• Guam's villages are "run" by mayors. Currently, 8 villages also have vice-mayors. Until sometime in the late '80s or early '90s, they were called "commissioners." I believe they made the change because commissioners can't travel off-island to attend things like mayor conventions/meetings. Heh.
