A guys garage has not sissy
stuff. Everything is functional. No Junk Tools, No Junk Storage, and certainly
not for your average car, truck or motorcycle.
Guys Garage
If a man's home is his castle, then a man's garage is his private sanctuary
within the castle walls, where he can use and care for the tools and other
treasures he holds most dear. The garage wall is often covered with different
tools hanging on hooks; some men are so fanatic about keeping their tools
organized that they even have outlines of each tool drawn painted around the
hook on which it is to be placed. A tool may be idle for years, but it will
never be lost.
The garage is also home to the yard tools like snow shovels, rakes, and of
course, lawn mowers, and can shelter the barbecue grill and patio furniture when
those summer breezes have left for sunnier climes. One of a man's favorite
pastimes, in fact, can be to re-organize the garage periodically so that
everything stored in it can be inventoried and rearranged to show it off more
effectively.
A Man's Garage And His Car
Then, of course, there's the car. Like the prized steeds which left their
luxurious stalls to carried many a medieval knight into battle, the car has the
place of honor in a man's garage. A man can wash, wax, and work on his car in
the friendly confines of his garage, and perhaps even talk or sing to it. He can
then ease it from the garage and display it in the driveway for the visual
enjoyment of all the neighbors. He can eventually raise his sons in the ways of
good "carmanship," teaching them the delights of the garage until they are ready
to leave the nest and assume the responsibilities which come with having garages
and cars of their own.
The Garage As The Tribal Council Room
The garage, however, can be a bonding place as well as a solitary retreat. Many
a family Thanksgiving has seen the after-dinner hours spent with the ladies
gathered around the kitchen table while the men are bonding in the garage,
enjoying a beer or two, a story, and whatever tobacco products they are not
allowed in their homes.
Sports, bosses, politics, and of course tools or cars can all be topics of
conversations, but the ability to talk to a sympathetic male ear is often far
more rewarding than the subject actually being discussed. The garage is the
equivalent of the corner bar, without the bartender or the jukebox. And it it's
your buddy's garage and not yours, the beer is free.
If you need Dad and can't find him, check the garage doors The odds are
excellent that he will have found something which needs male attention, either
to repair it or to improve its speed, efficiency, or dimensions. A man's true
home is his garage, and he'd be lost without it!
