I
cavemen
The term 'caveman' is a jimboism coined by me, meaning a rugged looking man who may or may not be furry or scruffy, but just has that look like he might hit you over the head with his club and drag you to his cave. I
cavemen. Usually more fit than Bears, cavemen are definitely more scary-looking, but in a good way. One fine example is John Cena, a professional wrestler. Many professional wrestlers are 'cavemen'. Just look at that cro-mag brow!
Here's actor David Denman as his character in 'The Office'. His character is a caveman, not a Bear, because he's not too big and burly:
And Jeff of Jeff's Weather Blog is a caveman, because he's scruffy and makes me go "GRRR!" inside, and again, he's not really a Bear:
Jeff's friend Eric is a caveman too. Here's a picture of Eric with his Gucci pterodactyl-hide manpurse slung over his shoulder. In this picture, he's probably about to go kill a wooly mammoth just for fun:

Sadly for Jimbo, there are very, very few cavemen in Washington, DC. Most people here are very clean cut and evolved, and I don't often see any knuckle-draggers (as I like to call them) up on Capitol Hill. Anyone got a time machine?
And let's not forget my favorite caveman, Howie Long. Here's a pic from his ill-fated (I saw it in the theatres, it was awful) 1988 breakout action film Firestorm:
I hope this entry doesn't start some kinda micro-cultural movement that launches Caveman circuit parties and bar venues...

That cro-mag brow is easily achieved with a steady intake of steroids. Permanently enlarged facial bones and John Cena are hot!

Cena rocks me, really liked his cover for WWE magazine where he pumps my nads in Marine gear. Check it:

When I was a caveman for Halloween, I was very, very popular. Especially as my loin-cloth slipped lower and lower.

I was quite smitten with Cena from early on in his career and was thrilled when I saw him on tv wearing high school alma mater's tee shirt, which was the same style and colors as when I went there 20 years ago.

Jim, you must've coined 'caveman' ages ago, 'cause it's certainly gotten around to me. I've been calling them cavemen, and lusting after them, since way back. As Julie Brown sings, "When I go bar hopping and they say last call, I go shopping for a Neaderthal!"

Nice presentation Jimbo!

It is time for you to get out of DC, even if it is in your comfort zone. Get a new job or move to Maryland near your work; your friends can still visit you. You need a new environment--you are feeling that life is passing you by, but maybe you are passing by life.

Those boys are fine. I dig the caveman look.
Posted by: tom h at November 28, 2006 9:03 AM
I very much enjoy the caveman look, in girls and guys.

Nice collection!
There are so many one-liners here, just waiting to be told. However, most of them involve the name of a particular hominid species, "Homo erectus", so I'll leave them to somebody else.

I must agree with First Mom.
You need an new enviroment. Maryland has plenty of fun things and many nature related activities.
Also our human population tends to be a bit more polite (all depends on where you live of course)
It is also more affordable than living in DC.
Plus as an added bonus Maryland folk (in regards to the gays) tend to be more diverse in look and philosophy.
And did I mention we have puppies! ;-)

You know I love me some cavemen. And hey, I was a caveman for Halloween too. I'll never tell where my club ended up. ;-) While Howie is hot, I'm not sure that "Firestorm" = break-out movie career. I'll take him behind the desk of FOX NFL anyday though. Thanks for brightening my day.

Awww, there's my sugar tits. I haven't seen a photo of him in awhile. You should have posted a shirtless pic of him, exposing his perky milky mammaries. Cute as a li'l peach.
Eric seems to be shirtless a lot these days. Hmmm.

Hmm..
Weather's Jeff and Eric the Sheep are Cavemen???
Do Cavemen.. wear Prada, sun themselves on Fire Island, attend posh vacation circuit cruise parties and talk about driving their Vespa's???
Hmmm...They're both cute.. but, I'm not sure I'm with you on this caveman thing with these two, Jimbo!
Posted by: Mike at November 28, 2006 3:32 PM
Cavemen don't wear Prada.
Sounds like a romantic movie title to me. Part caveman beat 'em up action movie with some hot caveman on caveman action.
I'd watch it.
Posted by: SmartAss at November 28, 2006 6:06 PM
I've been a fan of Howie for a Long Time.
Posted by: Mike at November 28, 2006 6:50 PM
Jeff and Eric, Cavemen??
Betty Rubble and Wilma Flinstone maybe.
Or more like they're in bad need of a chew toy..
Dude..you need to get the hell out of DC!
Posted by: rocco at November 28, 2006 9:43 PM
I think it boils down to the jaw being the defining characteristic. Strong jaw = growl. LOL.
Posted by: AllAmericanGuy at November 28, 2006 10:51 PM
Damn, it's scary when my mother and Rocco agree on something...
Posted by: jimbo at November 28, 2006 11:11 PM
Beastly jaws are killer!
Posted by: Jeff at November 28, 2006 11:22 PM
Yeah, Durban, sugartits. Where did all those pics of him go? he doesnt usually post shirtless pics on the weather blog.
Posted by: David Peters at November 29, 2006 12:04 AM
Mmmmmm, cavemen.......
Posted by: North Dallas Thirty at November 29, 2006 12:14 AM
I Think the scruff look is hot hot hot.
Posted by: David Langly at November 29, 2006 10:29 AM
Don't listen to your Mom, or Rocco, and definitely not Dax (move from DC to MD??? gross), just stay in DC! If you left, who would I go out running and dirty mackereling with?
Posted by: Piranha Sean at November 29, 2006 4:30 PM
Did you ever see the James Bond movie "From Russia, With Love"? The blonde villan was very caveman. SO HOT!
Posted by: MeetJustin at December 4, 2006 10:11 AM
I am a teenage girl, positive smitten with darlin' Cena.
Wouldn't it be nice to be thrown over that big shoulder and carried to the cave?
Another caveman: watch the Toby Keith video for How Do You Like Me Now?! and check him out. He's pretty much the only thing I like in country music.
