Aren't they awesome? These past four days, I have been taking a course that was taught by one. He has been fighting forest fires since he was 16 (before child labor laws) and his mannerisms and speech made it sound like he was always mildly annoyed about what he was saying. He also had that low, raspy voice... and a gray mullet and mustache. Some people might not have liked him, but I did, because I think grizzled old men are awesome.

I mean, look at Clint Eastwood. You can't go wrong with Clint Eastwood. Also, there was that one Saturday Night Live game show skit about who was the most grizzled old man.Of course, you don't want to cross them, and they're not gonna put up with your bullshit, youngster. When I grow up, I hope I can be just as grizzled as them.

Who's your favorite grizzled old man? Mine is Walt Kowalski, as of right now, because I don't remember many others. Also, please tell awesome stories of grizzled old men. Anyhoo...

Wuv, Yer Mom
