What the heck is it??!!

I have had some messages of confusion regarding what the point of this blog is. I will therefore attempt to explain myself.

A couple of months ago two of the guys from my church (me being one of them) had parallel experiences where we found ourselves in a social situation as the only male. We realised that this was not good (others may argue but when you think about it will eventually agree). We wondered how this terrible situation could have developed and decided that there was a lack of solidarity amongst our mates, and that this needed to be redressed. Hence MSN, the Male Solidarity Network, was birthed. Its aims are to increase the bonds of friendship between us blokes and to also provide a forum in which skills can be shared. We had only come to realise the importance of skills after viewing the seminal movie Napoleon Dynamite, an event which has changed our lives. Hence if you have not seen this film it is imperative that you go out and buy it and watch it at least twice.

Skills come in many forms (numchuck skills, bowhunting skills...), but are not soley to be acquired in order to impress the ladies (contrary to Napoleon's statement on the matter). In fact skills are a useful tool in spreading the gospel (a separate post to follow on what is the gospel), as a story which Petros related to us (and will hopefully post) shows.

MSN is open to all and a skills acquisition weekend is planned for the near future. Spread the word and email this post to your mates - lets make this the biggest thing since Tamagotchi.
