Metrosexual Healing

Post by Steve Ekstrand »

Nice to see I go to work one day this week and the board collective understood the intense need.

You know when you get this feeling...
You need Metrosexual Healing.

He's not looking ahead a few corners...he's checking out the cute corner worker right in front of him.

In case some of you haven't noticed, this thread is limited to fans of metrosexual blue avatars. Those without a proper avatar will be ignored. Actual metrosexuals are discouraged from posting here though the desire to do so is understandable. 8-)

Aaron.... We gotta talk!

The first pic was taken by Mary Pozzi at Golden Gate Fields during the ProParts Divisional in April.

The sun visor was a post factory added comfort and convenience item.... I would have left it on (weighed virtually nothing), but a certain 4yo boy trying to do pull ups on it through the sunroof. :cry:
