Now you may ask, what precisely is the Man Card? Of course if you ask that, you must not be a card carrying member. But I think the Man Card is an important thing for all men to hold. Really the Man Card itself isn't necessarily anything important and it's certainly more of a figurative thing than anything actually tangible. The Man Card, however, is evidence that <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnFUtTWqSnE">you are a man</a>. Of course I think you typically know if you're a card carrying member or not. You recognize your <a href="http://artofmanliness.com/">brute manliness</a> and realize that <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkKch-CAlgM">you are in fact a man</a>.<div><br /></div><div>A Man Card is earned, not bestowed upon an individual as a gift. I think the first important qualification is you do in fact have to be male. I'm sorry ladies, that may break your hearts, but at best you can only earn honorable mention for manliness. The core of what earns you a Man Card I think is found in <a href="http://www.dangerousbookforboys.com/">all of the things that makes little boys tick</a>. Is it gross? It's probably manly and can you get a card. Does it <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoWoiGXE6l4">scratch</a>? Yeah, that's pretty manly. Got some gnarly scars? <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6E4Oy6pFKQ">Chicks dig scars</a> and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aa9mNistHSs">chicks definitely dig Man Card Holders</a>. Do you <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zX3z14OkQq0">roughhouse</a>? Sometimes you gotta fight to earn that card, but earn it you will. Almost as great as picking on little brothers. Is it some crazy contraption you built with your mad <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3w-oDZSLUrY">MacGyver skills</a>? Definitely gets you a card. Are you <a href="http://blog.beards.org/">covered in hair</a>? Count yourself a member. Is it dirty (and I mean that in the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jy_xOQhDZig">Mike Rowe Dirty Jobs</a> kind of way)? Nothing we like more than being covered in dirt, count yourself in. <a href="http://espn.go.com/">Sports</a>? Do you really need to ask? Oh and don't forget <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nE11Zrrp24I">really great music</a>. Also, good lingo, e.g. manformation-information useful to men (Hat Tip: Carson's Jordan, yeah, that's definitely a card carrying man right there) or the establishment of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RLCD-PpWqU">Man Law</a> (hopefully if you were involved in such an action, it wasn't because you took actions that would bring into question any sort of Man Laws). Also, a Man Card holder is always a <a href="http://www.mans-man.com/mansman.htm">man's man</a>.</div><div><br /></div><div>Now I don't think a Man Card can ever really be revoked, I mean if you're manly enough to hold the card, you wouldn't be unmanly enough to ever lose it. Of course that doesn't mean men can't have <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEwDmc3FI_Q&feature=related">a softer, gentler side</a>. Seriously, there's nothing wrong with <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Doz5w2W-jAY">being a bit cultured</a>. Also, I am very big on the respecting of women (but we won't really delve into that here, that's a topic for another day). A real man is always a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gentleman">gentleman</a>. Keep it classy, that's my philosophy. However, at the end of the day remember you are a man and so treat yourself right.

I figure it's something pretty relevant to most of the boys of 203 and most of our readers. I know a lot of you probably frequent my blog if you actually take the time to read this, but if not I figured this was a pretty good post to check out. Basically I talk about a lot of dating etiquette and such relative to a blog post I found in the New York Times. Anyway, I'd love to hear any opinions relative to the matter.squirrelyearlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12098250376078894226noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451582170222331927.post-40149905211567570342009-01-31T08:00:00.000-07:002009-01-31T08:00:00.520-07:00Inside Joke of the Day: Awareness TestOk, so I guess this one isn't as much of a true inside joke because most of my roommates haven't even seen this yet, but I can imagine it will probably be classic around here. Anyway, I was reading Yahoo's college basketball blog <a href="http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/blog/the_dagger">The Dagger</a> and they had <a href="http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/blog/the_dagger/post/Club-Trillion-makes-the-local-news-now-actually?urn=ncaab,137584">an article</a> about a basketball blog written by one of the members of <a href="http://www.ohiostatebuckeyes.com/SportSelect.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=17300&KEY=&SPID=10421&SPSID=87813">Ohio State basketball team</a>. Well it turns out that this blog is rather popular and, even better, it's hilarious. So for the inside joke of the day I give a Hat Tip to <a href="http://www.ohiostatebuckeyes.com/ViewArticle.dbml?SPSID=87812&SPID=10421&DB_OEM_ID=17300&ATCLID=1057536&Q_SEASON=2008">Mark Titus</a> for his <a href="http://www.clubtrillion.blogspot.com/">Club Trillion</a> blog, the <a href="http://clubtrillion.blogspot.com/2009/01/taking-time-out.html">entry</a> from the first day I read it was great and I highly recommend you check it out. Of course the best joke from the blog was a YouTube video attached at the end and here it is for your viewing pleasure:<div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/mBNSm56A1-c&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/mBNSm56A1-c&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></div><div style="text-align: center;">Hopefully that made you more aware.</div>squirrelyearlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12098250376078894226noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451582170222331927.post-16148682100951222472009-01-29T17:37:00.005-07:002009-01-29T23:53:48.002-07:00The VIPs of 203Where the heck does that come from?<div><br />I'm sure if you've visited our abode, you have seen the shiny <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placard">placard</a> hung upon the door, which reads: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1017011&l=1ff21&id=661353300">VIP Entrance</a>. If you've known us for more than a semester, you might also remember the original VIP sign, written in pen on a simple piece of lined paper. It appeared on our door sometime last year, and it read: 24/7 VIP Lounge. It hung there for a long long time, until I thought it looked tacky and I tore it down. It was, after all, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeanne_Calment">very very old</a>. It would've stayed there forever, but we had the shiny placard from last year's <a href="http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=34628414&op=22&o=global&view=global&subj=705315076&id=17809681">Ward Date</a>, so I figured we didn't need both.<br /><br /></div><div>Anyway, the reference to us being VIPs is originally from that grungy piece of paper. There have been many myths regarding its origin. I am here to debunk the myths and reveal the truth, so as not to take the secret with me to my grave. (I don't plan on dying soon, FYI, but you never know).<br /><br /></div><div>I made it and hung it on the door. Originally I made it as a joke, because <a href="http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=34628414&op=22&o=global&view=global&subj=705315076&id=17809681#/profile.php?id=17832737&ref=ts">Amanda Martinez</a> was planning some dance party downstairs in Apt. 101, and you know how much our apartment loves dance parties. This is where my memory gets fuzzy. I think she said something like we could have a drink lounge for all the people who needed a break from dancing and we could call it the VIP Lounge. Wonderful idea, Amanda. And I got thinking, we could have it in our apartment. Wait, our apartment is ALWAYS a VIP Lounge. So I took that little inspiration from Amanda, added in the 24/7 part, and labeled 203 as the 24/7 VIP Lounge because the name obviously fits. :) Proof that it fits: it stuck. We became the VIPs, especially after we started writing a song about it. However, I didn't tell anyone I did it. Except Terry, I told him like last month.<br /><br /></div><div>So now the secret is out. That is the story of the reference. I figured I'd better publish it, especially since our blog is titled The 203 VIPs.<br /><br /></div><div>The End :)</div>Matt Terryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02707591798953036898noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451582170222331927.post-43331982737935522382009-01-26T08:00:00.000-07:002009-01-26T08:00:01.019-07:00Inside Joke of the Day: BadgerBadgerBadger<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GOxR7rTYuSI&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GOxR7rTYuSI&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><div>BadgerBadgerBadger</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">So if you ever see any of us doing a funny dance I think you know why.

Fire!So last night I was comfortably asleep having gone to bed a little after midnight. The next thing I know, all the freaking fetching smoke detectors in our apartment are going off. I was just getting my full bearings when I heard Jeff say he smelled smoke. The old <a href="http://www.ushistory.org/people/minutemen.htm">Massachusetts Minutemen </a>would've been proud; I was out of my bed and ready to put on some clothes like I'd been shot from a cannon.<br /><br />Of course, only after standing there did I get more of my brain back. Jeff wished me a hearty good morning and the detectors died. I looked at my clock and found that it was 1:50 a.m. I totally thought it was the morning, which doesn't really make any sense anyway because these guys usually aren't up then. In fact, at this point they were just going to bed. Anyway, I dropped back into my lower bunk, endured through another round of the stupid things beeping a minute or so later, and soon enough fell asleep.<br /><br />They thought it was the heater gimping off somehow. I didn't care if I died of some carbon monoxide poisoning, at least I could finally get some <a href="http://www.mech.titech.ac.jp/~inouhp/research/sleep/sleeping_man.JPG">shuteye</a>.Jordanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15947864514116363007noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451582170222331927.post-73891068632784672322009-01-24T15:15:00.003-07:002009-01-24T15:57:23.699-07:00That's Therapist!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCuSUkQCfTDDWVRKbE_Vikwdaix5zcgdcZfDx5wONrtxM99yrbPq-N5aQMrpcrnMYwJ5zfWQ4ERDh_4vCQ-NIJRCO05XHDc8_133Yo9FWmL7YDVdy84yl4aVsVt_2NKqoxhCgmh6O9Ctw/s1600-h/IMG_6724.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCuSUkQCfTDDWVRKbE_Vikwdaix5zcgdcZfDx5wONrtxM99yrbPq-N5aQMrpcrnMYwJ5zfWQ4ERDh_4vCQ-NIJRCO05XHDc8_133Yo9FWmL7YDVdy84yl4aVsVt_2NKqoxhCgmh6O9Ctw/s320/IMG_6724.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294979737123629218" border="0" /></a>In honor of James's first post I've decided to get myself in line and actually make my own. For those of you who weren't around or had your <a href="http://www.chrisdetrick.com/blog/uploaded_images/BYU-Pepper-CD-01bw-767668.jpg">eyes gouged out</a>, us boys in 203 had a contest to see who could grow the <a href="http://media.canada.com/canwest/90/moustache_competition090107.jpg">"best" mustache</a>. Since the mustache is inherently creepy and all, we decided to grow the beard first and shave it for the <a href="http://www.byucougars.com/Filing.jsp?ID=11614">BYU basketball game against Wake Forrest</a>. We definitely looked like creepers.<br /><br />Props to James for joining the contest after only a few days of not shaving. He definitely earns his manly status by the shear fact he can pull a full beard after <a href="http://www.cityhammer.com/blog/uploaded_images/MN013_ABOMINABLE_SNOWMAN-738465.jpg">a couple days</a>.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;">Even though most of you lady-folk who read this blog think otherwise, <a href="http://artofmanliness.com/2008/11/02/20-manliest-mustaches-and-beards-from-facial-hair-history/">facial hair</a> is awesome and hilarious.

I was still sick and cloudy-headed, but I'll try my best to chronicle it. First off, we won. 41-26 or 29 or something. The highlight of the game was, by far, <a href="http://parkersarecool.blogspot.com/">Coach Chad Parker</a> in his suit on the sideline. Other than that, there's not too much to tell. We played decently. We only took like 4 three pointers, which is way good for us. And we made two--both of them Tyler's. That's not a bad percentage. We played scrappy, got no <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/craig-1591/2716986475/">help from the refs</a> (that goes without saying), had some <a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/2695/20080421DwightRebound_FMNBAE.jpg">rebounding trouble</a>, but managed to play through our <a href="http://stuffthathappens.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/javaone-sickness.png">sicknesses</a> and shortcomings to earn a nice victory. Kudos to all the fans who showed up, and also to <a href="http://squirrelyearl.blogspot.com/">Scott</a> and James who manned the scorer's table. And thanks to the <a href="http://us.powerade.com/#/drink/zero">Powerade</a> man for giving everyone free Powerade. Next game I will buy a Legend's Grille cookie for whoever gets the most steals. Let's play some tight D!

How many times does this pic say <a href="http://kasiasue.blogspot.com/">Kasia-Sue</a>? I came out and at least three of the roomy's were talking with said girl on Facebook nontheless. To mom, our Facebook queen... and honorable mention goes to Barnes who is pictured to the right of Kasia.
