 Quick, what's your favorite car? A Ferrari? A Bentley? A classic Ford Shelby GT 350? A Neon? (Ha,ha,ha,ha) Ok, so imagine for a moment that you now own that car. Besides styling in it around town and flooring it on the open road, you'd take care of that baby like it was the most important thing in the world. You'd wash it all the time, wax it, shine the tires, and polish the chrome until you could shave in the reflection. You'd change the oil, flush the systems, and tune it until it purred like a kitten.
What about your body? Do you take care of yourself like you would that car? We never believed in that "My body is my temple" foolishness, but we also don't believe it's a frat house either. Think of yourself as you would that precious car and give it the best care that you can both inside and out. That means engaging in regular hygiene, working out regularly, and keeping an eye on what you put in the tank. Yes, we drink, smoke, and stay out too late, but we understand that proper grooming and good health cover for our transgressions, of which there are many.

 Ok, listen up: generally speaking, women don't like funky body odor or dry, rough skin. They're not the sorts of things that make women want to spend a great deal of time next to you. This is regardless of what kind of shape you're in or what you wear. It’s understandable to be a bit ripe after the gym or a game of hoops, but not over dinner or in a meeting — no one wants to smell that. You don't have to smell like a bouquet of chrysanthimums (you guys remember that great United Way ad from a few years ago with the guy from the Philly Eagles in a classroom being asked to spell "chrysanthimum"? "But she got to spell 'cat'!!!!" Loved that one). Dry skin doesn’t look good or feel good. So, on behalf of women out there, bathe regularly and use lotion. As for what to use, read on. |

They're called "dogs" for a reason. You stuff them into shoes and ask
them to support however many hundreds of pounds you carry around each
day, treating them like... well, dogs. Our theory is that because feet are the farthest away from
"Central Command" (read: your head), they get the least amount of
attention. Keep neglecting them and they'll let you know when they've
had enough. Ever been to a podiatrist? Believe us, it sucks. |
