Brother Bocci For the Win -- D'OH!

Got this e-mail from my brother Mantel Man the other day, complete with this photo:


"On our Grand Canyon hike, my friend Jessica and I found this sign rather amusing. I guess the Park Service had to cover its posterior. Given the fact that just a few days later a young man drove his car off the edge of the South Rim, can you blame them?"

Knowing Mantel Man, I'm certain he had just done what the warning sign expressly warned them NOT TO DO. The heat may have gone to their heads, because this was the next photo:


Then I, of course, asked his permission to post the photos.

Mantel Man:

"You want to post these? I guess I don't mind, as long as you're not planning something humiliating.  Oh, wait -- you're my sister."

Then came the belated e-mail from Brother Bocci:

"I'm more concerned that someone tucks in his shirt while hiking!"

Blindsided by Brother Bocci again.

Ha ha ha ha ha -- oh Marcy, if you knew the long history of beat-downs we give each other via e-mails, youd just pack it in. Were truly awful to each other. Mantel Man included. But were very, very close.

And at least he wasnt wearing the Cute Little Boy Shorts.  ; )

I am equally concerned for the shirt-tucking-in, but I believe it was to help accentuate his LACK OF BEER BELLY and the fact that he can still in fact actually TUCK IN HIS SHIRT.

Don't be pickin on Mantle-Man. I will take you down.

I was more concerned with that "thing" in his pants

[Mantel Man]

I guess it is unusual. The waistband of my hiking pants is a bit scratchy, so I tuck in my shirt for comfort. Please tell Bocci that at least I CAN tuck in my shirt...

Seriously! Who tucks and hikes????

[foolery]

Me too, Sharon. Poor Mantel Man!

Have to agree with Brother Bocci on this one!
