In Jim's post about the Hornady poster he made reference to the man-cave. It made me wonder whether you all have one and if you could describe it or post a pic.
I don't really have one and if I did it would be more like a hovel or an out-house. I have a room in the basement that isn't, strictly speaking, mine seeing as how the furnace, water heater and a whole lotta stuff is already in there. I have a lot of crap in the garage but the garage isn't mine either. I just built a garden shed but that's for the garden stuff. What I really have is a spot in the driveway under the trees. So I guess that makes it a man-spot-in-the-driveway-under-the-trees.
I make up for it at work though where the whole floor I work on is essentially a man-cave sans the nudies (which we have in the galleries). We have all contributed to the "tower of power" which is our collection if about a dozen stereo components. We have speakers in all the rooms including the bathroom so we never miss a beat, in a manner of speaking, and a 200w sub woofer in the wood shop. Every payday we go to the second-hand music store at lunch to add to our growing collection of CD's. On a good day in the shop we won't be able to hear the phone ring. We also have our remote stereo unit "Remo 1" that we take into the galleries when we are building or installing. As it's on campus there is no fishing gear or beer around but hey, it beats working in a cube on the admin level. Also, because it's dusty much of the time no one really comes around to bother us so we're left alone to do our work in peace. I'd have to say, in spite of the fact that it's work, it's pretty sweet.
