Doctor Who, #YOLO, and Rabbit Trails.

As of late, many of my siblings and I have immersed ourselves into the world of Doctor Who.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the show's premise it follows the adventures and mishaps of a quirky alien with two hearts who calls himself "The Doctor" and avoids death at every turn. On the rare event that the Doctor cannot avoid death he may then "regenerate" into another body, thus escaping such a tragedy.

Instead of You Only Live Once, it's You'll Only Live As Long As You Regenerate.

#YOLALAYR

The show never even tries to be close to real life. The Doctor's nemesis's are over-sized garbage cans turned upside down with a plunger strapped to one side and wisk on the other, for crying out loud!!

It's a good thing it doesn't claim to be too real. Because, we don't have #YOLALAYR. We have it's more sad realization #YOLO. Only once. Not twice. Not three times. No do overs or second chances.

Very sadly enough we each only have one life to do with as we please. And even more sadly, I can't decide what you do with your life.

I can't constantly hit you upside the head with a Louisville slugger every time you make an unwise decision. That's right. It's your decision. Though, whoever decided it was your decision to be stupid.... hmm....

I wonder how often God feels like this. He gives us advice and guidance directly through the Bible, as well as through our own walk with Him. Yet, we are idiots. We are so lucky to have the ultimate example spelled out in black and white (and red). We have it on our phones, mp3 devices, tablets, e-readers. We have email reminders, we receive the verse of the day texts. We wear t-shirts with verses tacked onto them. We have absolutely every convenience known to man and yet we still use every possible excuse... or "reason" to delay actually delving face first into just reading, studying, enthrolling ourselves in the word of the Lord.

I realize all too well that merely opening your Bible doesn't make your life better. And I know first hand that sometimes it's hard to make time for God.

Pause ▐▐

Perhaps this is where our troubles lay?

We should not be "making time for God". Ideally we should be so deep and enthralled in Him that it's everything else we are making time for.

I have nothing else to say.

Fluff and other Great Bible Verses.

Let's get things straight and to the point.

THE HOLY BIBLE DOES NOT CONTAIN FLUFF MATERIAL.

That's right, I'm holding on my knee as I type one thousand and forty two (1,042)  pages of Holiness.

From the excruciating details to the mind-blowing un-believable epic tales, this book contains no flaws. None of it is there accidentally. And all of it should be #RedLetter. Because it is all the Word of God.

So then why is it so hard for me to open it's beautiful gold-leaf pages and read it's ESV translated words? Why then can I not always find such joy and comfort in reading great passages from my LORD?

God, you have given us this wonderful tool and we ignore it like it's old technology!

The Bible is actually innovative technology! The first books were created to carry around the Scriptures in a more suitable way. How many scrolls have you seen since?

We must return to this innovative book! I must search for you truths daily and seek the wisdom you have already given me countless times through The Holy Bible.

We are to be doers of the Word, and not hearers only... (found in James) However, we can't even be doers until we are hearers, reading the Word and understanding it's commands. Can we really be serving God in the world without hearing as well? Not to discount serving... But as I said before, there is not fluff in the Bible. Seek Him out. Put some effort into it. And I guarantee He will show you "Great and mighty things, which thou knowest not." (Jeremiah)

Go! Read! Now! Before I blow a gasket!

I have the BEST boyfriend EVER!!!! Frsrsly!!

There is nothing better than the "best".

That's what defines the "best".

So, how in the world can everyone have the "BEST" boyfriend or girlfriend ever??

Even just two "best boyfriends" is a contradiction. Yet, it seems that everyone who is on facebook has the best boyfriend/girlfriend in the world...

So...

Either everyone is dating the same guy or girl....

OR....

Everyone is highly confused at the definition of "best".

Or, perhaps "best" is just a matter of perspective and opinion. In which case, each individual is only comparing their current "best" significant other to significant others that they have had in the past. (Unless of course they specify "best in the world", which is a whole 'nother delima.)

Example 1: Billy was the best boyfriend ever to Sally. Only because Sally had never had a boyfriend. In actuality, Billy wasn't that great of a boyfriend. When Sally dumped Billy and started dating George, George was now the "best" boyfriend. While, Billy was merely a "better" boyfriend.

Example 2: Charissa was Robert's best girlfriend ever. WAS. Robert has dated many girls, and was now dating Molly. Molly was only a "good" girlfriend. Another previous girlfriend, Stefanie,  was the better girlfriend.

It's also just possible that everyone's significant others are progressively getting better. If that's the case... Shouldn't Taylor Swift have the perfect boyfriend by now? (Just wondering)

It seems to me that the best just keep getting worse and those on facebook just keep getting more annoying. Now, I'm not trying to dis anyone, but let's be real.

Not everyone has the "best" boyfriend or girlfriend. The fact that relationship statuses change so quickly goes to support the theory that they either didn't have the proclaimed "best" or weren't the "best" themselves.. possibly both.

That's all I got...

How to take a bath.


I was taking a bath earlier and realized something. It is really hard to have a successful long hot bath.

Don't roll your eyes at that. Think about it.

When you're in the mood for a real hot bath you get in the tub, turn on the water as hot as it will go.... and then end up getting out fifteen minutes later because it's so hot. You can't breath very well. And, any other reason you can think of.

I would like to explain how you can take a successful, long, hot bath.

1. Turn the water on to a warmer temperature and sit in the tub as it is filling up. This will help start adjusting your body to handle the really hot water for an extended period of time. (Do not at anytime during this stage turn the water to hot. Hot water at this point will ruin the bath all together, despite the temptation in your head saying it'll be fine.)

2. Continue at this stage until the bathtub is almost all the way full. (About three fourths) At this point, it would be foolish to keep the water on a warm/hot, as it would be a waste of all of the prepping for such an enjoyable long-lasting bath.

3. If the previous steps were correctly followed, you now have a sturdy foundation for a hot bath. If the hot water was turned on any sooner then it would throw the balance off and you would not be able to withstand a full, long, hot bath. Crank the heat up until the bath is all of the way full and enjoy your long waited for, patience won, hot bath!

*DISCLAIMER*: I cannot guarantee the safety of turning up the heat before prescribed in my instructions. The key to a successful long-lasting bath is waiting for the proper foundation.

END.

Odd Reality

Has anybody made the observation lately that the measurement of humor varies depending of who's present?

For example, I could be watching a crude children's movie all by my lonesome and just be completely disgusted at how they resort to potty humor to make kids laugh. Then re-watch said movie the following week with my cousins and that same movie that once brought my scorn suddenly becomes the most hysterical thing I've ever seen.

I've had a friend tell me they weren't going to watch a movie until they could see it in my presence for the fear that it would be less enjoyable than they remembered.

And through the course of the last several days I've realized, my life is insane. Actually, I already knew that. But depending on who you are and the way you perceive things my life could be anything. And not in the dreamy "You can be anything" as in, depending on how you look at it: my life is a horror movie. Or, my life if a dramatic romance, without the romance, with some extra drama. Or, my life is a comedy written by Moffat. (Meaning, it snot actually a comedy, just hysterical to watch. And, very insane.) Hey, for the amount of times we break out in song at my house, I could even be a musical. In the most rare of times my life could even be an inspirational movie.

The perception of my life could lead to many very different, very entertaining, conclusions. And as the same with humor and many other aspects, this is altered by the people I talk to and spend time with.

Isn't that somewhat of a sad thing though? I mean, what kind of a person would I surround myself with that would make my life a horror film? *shudder* Better yet, wouldbe the one that's the killer?? All this talk of horror has made me forget where I'm going with this... that is to say, IF I was going anywhere... it's like a train wreck...

Oh, so if the people you spend time with can affect so much of the way you see things maybe you should monitor more of who you see. Now, I'm not telling you to go dump all of your friends who make you feel uncomfortable, or the ones who keep your head out of the clouds. Moreover, surround yourself by the people who will always encourage you in Christ.

Iron sharpens iron. Make sure that you are sharpening yourself with Godly iron, as becoming sharp for any other purpose can only lead to failure.

End.

Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.

I would like to share some lyrics from a Tenth Avenue North song.

Surely by now many have noticed I have a thing for the said band... but bear with me.

King of all the earth and every age
All creation waits for You
And trembles at Your name
Surrounded on a throne of endless praise
Fire and lightning flash from the glory of Your face
And I sing to You

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

How do I dare approach this Holy One
The One who was and is, was and is to come
Robed in righteousness and mystery
We have only just begun, just begun to see
So I come broken through
The blood of Your Son and I kneel before You

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

Blessing and honor and glory and power
To Him who sits on the throne
Blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God alone

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

Oh, You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

You are Holy, Lord
Holy, God, You’re Holy, Lord
You are Holy, Lord


The lyrics may become somewhat repetitive. But, when one speaks the pure truth, sometimes there is nothing left but to continue proclaiming it. Sitting under my covers late at night when I should be sleeping listening to Mike Donehey proclaiming the absolute truth about my God is somewhat bringing tears to my eyes. Then, it makes me sad, because this is what music was created for. It is so that God can be glorified. Is He glorified by the music that I sing and listen to?

I have gotten honestly really disappointed by myself this evening in having to honestly tell myself that I disgrace God with the music that I sing in the car, in the shower, while cleaning or cooking, instead of honoring Him. It's frustrating.

We should be able to look God in the face and worship Him with the music that we sing. Now imagine doing that with a Lady Gaga song. The mere thought brings great distaste to my mouth. The music that comes on the radio commonly is not only not worshiping the LORD, it is flat out glorifying things that the LORD hates. Why would putting such before Him be a small offense?

I'm not trying to give any one who reads this a guilt trip (I say one, because if I'm lucky one person will read this). However, if you are somewhat feeling guilty over the music that you turn to perhaps there is more at work in your heart than guilt.

Moreover, I want to challenge you to think about the music that escapes you mouth, and is fed to your brain. How does this praise my God? How will this glorify Him?

He is Worthy. He is Holy.Why hesitate?

Psalms 63:3 "Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you."

.... Awk.

I realize I failed to finish the previous countdown in a timely manner that I had been hoping one.

A direct result of my birth landing during finals... Not the most looked forward time of the year... there were some extreme mixed feelings...

Shaky interwebs on the homefront hasn't helped much in any case.

However, do not let such shoddy attentiveness be a direct reflection of my blog.

It is also time for my brain to nap. Although it is not yet "late" I just went through finals.. give a poor college student a break, eh?

The. End.

6 Random Ways I'm Undoubtedly Hardcore.

We has one mo week.

Untill then, I wish to discuss how hardcore I am.

Six ways to be exact.

Don't get the Idea I'm only hardcore in these specific six ways, however for the sake of following the countdown theme.. blah blah blah...

1. Because I live Hardcore.
     You know what they say; "If you wannabe hardcore, you gotta live hardcore."

2. Because I like walking barefoot.
     I realize that there are times when it is simply more appropriate to wear shoes, so I hesitantly cover my feet. However It's not my first choice. I'm also aware that my feet sometimes look awkward, but we shall ignore that fact.

3. Because the Bible tells me so.
     The Bible says "I am fearfully and wonderfully made." (Psalm 139:14) That sounds pretty hardcore to me. I don't know about you..

4. I have a secret Identity.
     SSssssshhhhhhhhh.......

5. I make fudge hardcore...ly
     Okay.. sometimes it's not all of the "hard" part.. more like ... "gooey-corely" ...

6. I dress hardcore (whilst cleaning my room)
     It is not at all uncommon to see me wearing a Jayne Cobb hat and goggles one minute while I'm cleaning my room, then come in five minutes later to me wearing my cape and have feathers stuck in my hair... (Yeah, I'm an adult.)

Well, that's my secret. Now you know. I'm hardcore to the bone.

7 Random Reasons That I am Nothing Like Princess Ariel.

Blah blah blah.. this countdown continues... Blah blah blah...

Anyway

There's been a lot of comparison as to how I AM like certain Disney princesses, and I want to make something clear. I'm not like every bratty princess out there. In fact, I'm pretty much only like the two I mentioned. And, to prove my point I shall go on to provide 7 ways that I am nothing like the Disney princess Ariel.



However, I'll tell you I could come up with a myriad more reasons we're nothin' alike. I'm merely sticking to seven for the purpose of the countdown...

Anywhoes

1! Ariel thinks she can sing.
     I, on the other hand, know that I cannot sing. I do not claim otherwise, in the least. In fact, I would be the bird they're putting out of it's misery.

2! Ariel wears bikini's
     Actually... that's not even a bikini, that's a couple of seashells... I do not have a bikini body, nor would I wear underpants as a bathing suit if I did. Don't get me wrong, I don't exactly spill out on the beach in late 19th century bathing suit get-up. But I try to have a sense of modesty.

3! Ariel can swim.
     My entire life I've not been a very good swimmer. However, in recent year I have shown some improvement. I've learned how to tread water.

4! Ariel is a whiny little brat.
     Yeah, I know I have my moments. But seriously, I'm not that bad...

5! Ariel is tiny!
     I'm a Barbra-Jean type. I could crush her with one swing of my hips. Pretty much no exaggeration.

6! She lacks common sense.
     (In my notes for this post I used the word "stupid" however, I decided to use a nicer word... ) Anyway, did she really think that that witch octopus lady was going to give her what she wanted? In a nice way? I mean, frsrsly, what a fool!

7! She is a mermaid.
     Probably the most obvious. However, it's very very true. I do not have the body of a fish.

To those of you who love Ariel, and aren't partial to my "dissing" her in any way. I am sorry for you.

However, smiles and hugs and kisses and puppy-dog tails and unicorns and rainbows and butterflies and all things sickeningly happy.

The End.

8 Random Reasons why I am like the Disney Princess Rapunzel.

The countdown continues... blah blah blah. (As seen in previous posts.. look it up...)

Today I compare myself to the Disnefied Rapunzel. Obviously not the original Grimm Brother's story.. I'm not thirteen and/or have ever been pretty much raped and now pregg'ers with twins whilst my baby daddy is wondering the woods with his eyes gouged out.

(Yes, the story really does follow that general path...)

ANYWAYYSSS.......

*Cough*

Disnefied version...



1. Rapunzel is barefoot the entire movie. 
     Again, I feel this speaks for itself. Usually I'm barefoot or wearing sandals/flip-flops. And, if I'm not, I want to be.

2. She has a thing for the color Purple.
     It doesn't really take long to figure out I absolutely adore the color Purple. I wear it nearly everyday.. (I'm wearing purple at the moment actually...)

3. She talks to herself.
     I talk to myelf. My elf? Um, I don't have an elf... I mean self... my SELF. I talk to my SELF!! If I talked to an imaginary elf that wasn't there... *whew* then we'd have a real issue on our hands...

4. Her best friend is someone you can't see all of the time.
     Take that however you want...

5. She has BIG eyes.
     I have been told that I have big eyes. However, I've also been told they weren't THAT impressive. So I'll leave this up for interpretation...

6. She likes to paint.
     I really really like painting. Whether or not what I put my hand to come out pretty, I really enjoy doing it. I also get rather excited and adrenalated (<I made up a word.) when painting.. It's like a drug.. (No, it's not the fumes.. my paints aren't that strong..)

7. She is good with a frying pan.
     I've growed up in the country.. However, my first weapon of choice to actually harm a living person with would not be a gun. I choose... FRYING PAN! And, most likely I would already be frying up a piece of bacon or something in it at the time.. It's already handy, and ready to melt someone's face off.

8. She can be a real blonde sometimes, even though she's not a natural blonde.
     I'm not saying I dye my hair.. but I have one of those weird.. not brown not blonde heads... Sometimes I'm really smart. Others I'm an idiot...

And that be thats.

The End.

Merry Christmas.

9 Random Reasons I'm a girl misplaced in time.

The countdown continues... If you do not know to which countdown I speak, refer to my last blog post.

Today I want to explain how there is no way I belong in this day and age. Though there are many numerous reasons I shall attempt to only provide nine, as specified in the discription.



1. In comparison with all the other young ladies out there, I'm an old lady.
     From the way I dress, to the way I talk, to my expectations of others. Apparently I'm just too old.

2. My language.
     Not only the fact that I try to avoid using "idk" and/or "btw" but the foulness of language looming in the air nowadays disgusts me. It just sounds gross. Completely unrefined. And, a HUGE turn off... Many many more consider this a notion that's just too far gone for today's society, or just unrealistic, I say they're just dumb.

3. My morals.
     I am what many would consider "backwoods" and "old-fashioned" when it comes to many many many things. I have been called a "prude" multiple times.

4. Old people like me.
     I'm honestly not sure why on this one. But I know a lot of older people that really like me. It's too bad none of the have billionaire grandson's to marry off. 

5. My Ideals.
     AGAIN, many find it odd, old fashioned, and I've even heard it called "selfish" to want to get married, have children, and stay at home caring for said children. (In that order!) Ihonestly don't know how someone found that "selfish" but I have heard it called such.... 0.o

6. I would rather listen to a radio station playing old hymns than modern "Christian pop"
     It's true... Not that I really have anything against Christian pop. I just like old worship songs. I'm traditional like that.

7. I'm not going to ask a guy out.
     Even though I MIGHT have asked a guy to a dance earlier this year.... *cough* Sadie Hawkins *cough* Girls ask the guys *cough* (always a surprise)

8. I generally prefer old movies.
     From Fred and Ginger to Charlie Chaplan. I just prefer the oldies.

9. I wear a pocket watch, and carry a fan.
     It's true. I do. I've spoken of my fan club before.

And that, my friends, (all three readers) is why I do not truly belong to this generation.


10 Random Reasons I'm like Princess Rose/Aurora

Hello. It's my birthday soon.... ish.

As a countdown thingy majig I'm counting the ways I am like something or another.

Today, it is ten ways I am like the Princess Aurora, as depicted my Disney.


1. She walks barefoot in the woods. 
     I don't feel I need to elaborate more on this one.

2. Her only friends are animals.
     ......
     ..........

3. Her Prince (Philip) is (In my opinion) a Van Johnson look-a-like.
     I've always liked Van Johnson.

4. She has blonde hair.
     I... kinda have blonde hair.

5. She's clumsy,
     I mean fo real, the girl just pricks her finger on a spindle! I would do that!

6. She has a beeeautiful singing voice.
     ..... Oh, yeah. Never mahnd.

6.5 She wonders a lot.
     "Wonder" not "wander" though I do both. 

7. She grew up in the woods!
     I grew up in the woods too!!!

8. She meets a guy once and falls in love with him.
     Yep. I've done that. . . . It's too bad he's currently on tour with his Irish band and has no remembrance of me.. :'(

9. She's pale.
     I've got this one in the bag!!

10. People tend to think she's older than she really is.
     I mean, she was 15 at the beginning of the movie!! Nobody remembers that detail! RAPUNZEL was older than her, but people seem to remember Aurora as being older. I've been asked what I'm majoring in by mothers since I was 14... :/

In Christ Alone.

Though the words are not my own, the prayer, the cry, and the confession reflect that of my heart.



In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My Comforter, my All in All,
here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone! who took on flesh
Fulness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones he came to save:
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied -
For every sin on Him was laid;
Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain:
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me,
For I am His and He is mine -
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath.
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.

Stella Hacked and other Random things.

What!!!!!! This is not Hannah!!!!! Or Georgiana!!!!!

Hahahaha......this is her other personally Stella, and I am here to talk about something. I'm not really sure what I'm going to say, but since I am on her blog, I can write anything I want. 

So....I just realized that writing can be hard, especially if you do not have anything to say. I thought that it would be easy to get on here and write something silly, perhaps profound, and something that would most definitely be amazing. Well, it's hard!!!!!

So I just decided to use exclamation points throughout to make it appear as if I was saying something important. 

Anyways, here's a little bit about myself. I am the oldest personality of Hannah, and anything she has said that has been amazing has been obtained through my amazing guidance. My name is Stella and I come from the land of Libraria. My land is great, but is a little full of words and pages, leaving little room for other personalities like me. It can get a little lonely, so it's great when Hannah comes and visits. 

Here is a poem written by me for you:

There once was a little pup,
His hair was full of mud.
His dad told him to get a cup, 
And clean his little butt. 

I just made that up on the spot.......It's rubbish. I just now decided that I was British.

Here's another poem:

I just saw a fly, 
it flew right by.
I also saw a kid, 
who jumped in a pie.
Most importantly,
I just kissed Sir Guy. 

Anyways, Stella is leaving now. But first.....:

Flowers are pretty,
men are cute, 
if you weren't so petty,
I'd say you were too!!!

TOP TEN: Mustache Clad Men.




Most people consider mustaches creepy and gross. And usually those people are right.

However, there are several men that have at one point sported such a 'stache and maintained such manliness and in general awesomeness.

(And, in some cases, these men are made even manlier and more awesome.)

The following is a list I have so carefully constructed of Ten men who have been able to sport a Mustache with out looking creepy, and/or losing any manly qualities.

1. Eugene Wrayburn, portrayed by Paul McGann.
(Our Mutual Friend, 1998 Mini-series)

"EugeneEugeneEugene!"
Eugene, Eugene, Eugene.... What an amazing 'stache you have!

Seriously, this truly is an amazing mustache. This surprisingly short curly man pulls off this curved ended look rather well.

Despite his having a mustache the entire 6 hours of the mini-series one finds themselves cheering him on. Rather than the chin-hairless Mr. Hedstone. (Or as my family has, so adoringly, nicknamed him, "Creepy George.")

The point is: Alone, this man is cool. With a mustache, this man is indeed a MAN. No arguments.


2. Norman Warne, portrayed by, Ewan McGregor.
(Miss Potter, 2006)


"Heeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyy....."
Norman McGregor. A man that technically doesn't exist. However, he has a very business-like mustache. Nicely trimmed and always in place! 

(Even in the rain!)

Mr. Warne was a man. A manly man. Anyone who argues differently obviously doesn't understand the importance of his help in getting the "Peter Rabbit" stories published! 

Could you even imagine a world in which Peter Rabbit didn't exist?? MADNESS I SAY!

Be thankful that Norman Warne was man enough to sport his mustache, and man enough to help publish the works Beatrix Potter.

And kiss her, with his mustache in the RAIN!!!! (how people kiss WITH their mustache is beyond me....)


3. Ron Swanson, portrayed by, Nick Offerman.
(Parks and Recreation)
  
"Bacon"
Ron Swanson. He even has his own pyramid of Greatness in which facial hair makes up part of the foundation.

He, himself, sports a well groomed man-stache. One that no man (or woman) would dare dispute.

Ron Swanson was an easy pick for the top ten mustache clad men



4. William Adama, portrayed by, Edward James Olmos.
(Battlestar Galactica) 

"Why, hullo there..."
 
Most considered his "seasonal" mustache rather creepy. (pun intended as it was suddenly there one season...)


However, what could make a man leading what was left of the human race more of a man?? 

I'll tell you. A MUSTACHE!!! 


5. Hercule Poirot, portrayed by, David Suchet. 
(What else but Poirot mystery movies?)

"You will confess!"
Poirot. He is so cool. Even cooler and better at getting people to confess than Jessica Fletcher. 

How does he do this? Pure intimidation

But how is he so intimidating? Such a short little round man with a funny Belgian accent??  

Two words: His Mustache.

One look at the intimidating upper lip hair and you will blab away!! So beware if you want to kill somebody! Make sure the investigator does not, repeat, does NOT have a Poirot style mustache!!!

6. Lando Calrissian, portrayed by, Billy Dee Williams.
(StarWars. duh!!)

"Llllllllllllllladies."
Lando, it's Lando. Personally, I live in Orlando. So I have always thought Lando was cool by his name alone growing up.

What a foolish child I was. *chuckle*

Lando is cool, not only because of his name, but also due to his bravity in facial hair choices. 

The guy almost stood up to Darth Vader, perhaps if his mustache was only a little fuller he could have succeeded in such a feat. 

7. Dr. John Watson, portrayed by, Jude Law.
(Sherlock Holmes)

"I put the 'hot' in 'Doctor'"
 I mean seriously! The man (somewhat) keeps Holmes in line! Could he do so without a mustache?? Probably. 

However! Doing so WITH a mustache adds class. Style. Manliness. Then just add a bowler for spice. Not only does Watson win over his woman with said manliness, he works it  to death helping Holmes solve mysteries.

There's a lot to be said for a Doctor who sports a 'stache and solves mysteries. For sure. A lot to be said that I might not be the one to say. However, a lot that surely somebody will one day say.
  



8. Dr. Mark Sloan, portrayed by, Dick Van Dyke.
(Diagnosis Murder)

"Just sayin' my 'stache makes people confess too!"
Speaking of 'stached, mystery-solving, doctors...

Mark Sloan, cool guy. Cool doctor. Solved murders with his son/detective. Can you get a cooler premise for the show??

Oh! I know!! Add Dick Van Dyke!!! AND a mustache!!!!! It's a recipe for success!! 

What made the show truly amazing? The mustache. Twas the mustache. Twas always the mustache. Okay, Dick Van Dyke most definitely helped!


9. Howard Stark, portrayed by, Dominic Cooper. 
(Captain America: The First Avenger)

"I'm hungry for... fondue"
Yes. It's Iron Man's daddy. Yes Iron Man had some pa-retty cool beard hairs going on. However, I don't recall Iron Man ever sporting such a man-stache. (At least in the movies)

Don't get me wrong, I'm not dissing Tony's hairs. But his dad had the right idea. 

He sports a mustache the entire movie without creeping anybody out, and even manages to make Captain America himself jealous!!!

(Even if it is for somewhat different than the implied reasons.) 

My only complaint? There wasn't a scene in which he was cleaning fondue out of the 'stache :/

10. Cpt. Leland Stottlemeyer, portrayed by, Ted Levine.
(Monk, television series)

From Captain America, to Captain Stottlemeyer. 

I will be the first to admit it, Leland has a smooth mustache. You hardly even know it's there most of the time. As if it's in the corner of your eye...

Shall we call it... ninja mustache? I think yes. 

On top of having a manly ninja mustache, Stottlemeyer solves crimes with the obsessive-compulsive, OCD, Adrian Monk.

Man with the ninja mustache=the sidekick of a Monk?

....... Almost... something like that....
Bottom line _____ Ninja mustache=Manly Cop. 


So ends the list of TEN MANLY MUSTACHED MEN. 

I know I shall receive flak for not including Tom Selic. And indeed, I agree he had/sometimes-still-has a very manly 'stache. However, his mustache is a little obvious at this point. I like to play stealth here! Keep you on your toes! How fun would it be if you had been able to guess every man on the list?? 

If there are any noteworthy man-staches that I have neglected please comment below telling me about it! I literally live my days to read comments about mustached men!!!

......

Okay, I exaggerate. However, I would like to hear your opinions! And more than that I would like for you to follow my blog.

At this point you have lost interest. So I shall bid thee farewell.

FIN.
