I can't tell you how many times I have heard those words from bedraggled women this past week as I have been helping with the clean-up after the catastrophic floods of last week in Calgary and southern Alberta.
The owner of a restaurant in a small town said to me: "A big burly guy who knows about generators and motors and electricity and plumbing?......You're my dreamboat!".
Sheesh! I was grimy and wearing filthy, greasy clothes. The lady herself was also filthy (and a bit gamey) from cleaning up her restaurant.
A funny moment during the disaster.

Glad to know things are moving Art, kudos to you for continuing to help out. Finally got word from a college buddy that his family in Calgary was alright. Good luck with the cleanup!
Art!What can I say?
I hope Calgary is recovering. Pictures of the flood were appalling, but now it's fallen out of the news down here.
Nice! Sounds like you got some groupies! You should see if they mean what they say.
I've heard that before. I was fixing my Nona's range when her friend complimented me. I was like, "Nona, tell Ethel she's creeping me out. I heard about cougars but this broad's been around since the Pleistocene."
