Well our good ol' Stan has a crush on a tv personality! Now I must comend his taste...this guy is CANADIAN!
Mike Holmes is an amazing contractor doing the world alot of good. The guy is a handsome man none the less. Even I can respect his tradionally handsome looks.
It just so happens that I was fortunate enough to spend some time with him last year. I met him at the International AutoShow in Toronto early in 2009. It was at the Auto show to check out the new 2009 models. I love cars what can I say! While I was checking out the new fords. A voice on the loud speaker announces " TV sensation Mike Holmes would be present!". I decided whats sauce with the duck and went and met the guy. Instead of telling him how great his show was...Like every hot and bothered women in thier 30s and 40s seemed to tell him. I told him about a building project of mine. I build snowboard jibs in the winter to practice whne I can't hit the mountain. My style was has become more agressive with age and more powerful. So my older jibs were busting out. He suggested I reinforce them with triangular tresses. I said thanks and told him I'd make it right for Winter 2010. I'm starting the project in the next few weeks once I gain some more lumber.
It was really fun...he gave me a ManHug and an autograph photo. My first name is actually Crys( said- CHRIS) and yeah was cool.

Following the theme of handy men here, Ty Pennington from Extreme Make Over: Home Edition is one of my favorite carpenters. Ty is a guy I can relate to in alot of ways. We both share the elephant in the living room known as ADHD. Both struggled to stay attentive in school and only did when our hands could be doing something. Ty inspires me in alot of ways. He's shown the world a hyper and crazy guy can do just fine in this world. Ty is another guy who I can say is good looking. What I like about him and holmes, is they are not hollywood handsome. You know the Brad Pitts, The clooneys, The Depps. They are just average traditionally handsome guys. Mike is your tradional handsome. While Ty is that Handsome that comes with an easy going joker.

Mike's a really cool guy. He gets to repair and fix all the fuck ups that other contractors do and rip people off of all their money.
Ty Pennington gets on my nerves with his big mouth and that fucking bullhorn. I can't stand him but Mike Holmes is cool!
LOL but Stan Ty is awesome in his own right to. He's just too hyper for your tastes lol.
LOL they both do amazing tings to help people out in this life which is cool. I could get along with both.
I think realistically I'm a happy medium between Holmes and Pennington when it comes to how I work on building projects. But I can also be very Jethro Gibbs as well.
I love Ty...in small doses. :)
I haven't seen Mike before, but he is a handsome man. :)
I'll take ty in any dose. He seems like a hell of alot of fun to be around.
