    "Humidity is rising
    Barometer's getting low
    According to our sources
    The street's the place to go
    Cos tonight for the first time
    At just about half past ten
    For the first time in history
    It's gonna start raining men
    It's raining men
    Halleluja
    It's raining men
    It's raining men
    Halleluja
    It's raining men"


    Yes, this week we have a fantastic subject to HubMob about: MEN, let's  spoil them rotten with the most classic, original, practical or crazy gifts that we can find around for them!!!

    Father's day is approaching and we all have a significant man in our life, whether it is a father, grandfather, a husband, a boyfriend, a brother or even a friend, let's spoil them with some gift ideas.  Take advantage and earn extra income using your ebay and Amazon capsules to generate some extra money. 

    Some ideas for a Men's HubMob are:

    - Men's Apparel : jeans, outdoor clothes, underwear, swimming wear, sports wear, uniforms, sleepwear, and so on.
    - Men's hygiene products.
    - Men's perfumes and colognes.
    - Men's skin care
    - Accessories for men: Belts, Gloves, Handkerchiefs, Hats, Ties, Umbrellas, Wallets.
    - Shoes for men: Athletic & Outdoor Shoes, sandals...
    - Hair styling for men: Gray-Covering Formulas, hair loss treatments, shampoos, styling Products.
    - Jewellery for men
    - Sports equipment: fishing, camping, hiking, etc.
    - Electronic gadgets: mobile phones, IPods, GPS navigators, video games.
    - Books, music and movies for men.
    - Body Art: Piercings, tattoos.
    - History and ways to celebrate Father's day.
    - Are you a man?  Then tell us, what would be your favourite present or what's the worst present you ever received?

    To join this week's HubMob please follow the steps below:

    1. click this link and answer the Request that I entered in for all of you HubMobsters.

    2. Choose a relevant title for your HubMob and feel free to use the tags that I suggested and add your own tags.  To get a good ranking in the search engines make your title relevant to your hub content and avoid starting your title with "Weekly HubMob"

    3. Choose a relevant category for your HubMob.  I have entered Fashion&Beauty--Men's Apparel as the main category, but if you are going to work specifically on father's day please DO change your category to Celebrations--Father's Day

    4. Include the HubMob RSS Feed in your hub: http://hubpages.com/request/11480/best?rss

    5. Add the HubMob image to your Hub so that everyone who reads it will know that it is part of the official HubMob topic of the week.

    6. After you publish your HubMob Hub, come back to the forum and post a link to your hub with a brief description of what you wrote about and why.  Take advantage of the free publicity!

    7. Keep track of your Hub and keep us updated on any traffic that you're getting.

    Yep, that's about it - have fun writing your HubMob Hub this week and please let us all know if you have any questions. Have fun, you crazy HubMobsters. smile

Maybe you should right a hub on 'Why women should stop nagging men to put the toilet seat down' and possibly give up at the end of it because you know that you're not gonna convince the women-folk to stop... and sell automatic toilet seat sets at via ebay/amazon! smile Do they make those? smile

        I'm curious...is leaving the toilet seat up something they teach you guys in Kindergarten?  How is it that you all do it?

        I read somewhere that a gal's good course of revenge is to put saran wrap over the toilet (beneath the seat).  Then, when guys get up in the night, they can't see it, and well, you can imagine the outcome.  I've never tried it but maybe someday I will.  smile

          waynetposted 14 years agoin reply to this

          I think it goes way beyond kindergarten, it is just etched on our minds to leave the potty seat up.

          Someone already tried that and it failed because the moon was reflecting through the bathroom window and I saw the plastic wrap, I'm sure others have fallen for it though tee hee!!

    Question for the HubMob experts. I saw the topic and decided to write a hub. I went off and started my hub, which means the title and URL were already set. The step I skipped was the "click this link to answer this request" (step #1).
    Apparently you wonderful women (Princessa and Shirley) were able to include my hub anyway.
    In future, besides following the sequence EXACTLY, is there a way to submit a hub that's already written for the HubMob? Thanks!! MM

      Hi, Yes it does as only the hubs started clicking the ANSWER the REQUEST are automatically included in the RSS feed sad 
      which means that your HubMob won't be included in the other HubMobs, therefore loosing potential views.

      Sorry about that.

      As you have not publish it yet you could start again this time answering the request if you want your HubMob to be included. 
      Otherwise... there is still a day left if you want to start a completely new one smile
