| Finally found a topic we all have an interest in. My ear hair is like the grasslands of Kentucky - swirls in the breeze.
Anybody else ever been to a barber shop where they set fire to the hair to get rid of it? Really works. But I only went the once. |

That only happened once too. |

Barbershop? Only for the singing, feels to much like a ripoff these days. As long as they refuse to give 1/2 off, I refuse to give them half to cut. |

Eyebrow hair grows back, fortunately, and I too will only do that once. |

Beats waxing.... And apparently cheaper than a haircut, eh? |

:p |

Location: Midland, MI | Hey, Schroeder, this is completely OT here, but we have this new kid at 'ork who hails from somwhere like, north and maybe westerly of London. He has a thick accent, which is cool. But, I made a comment about some of the chavs around our department and he got mighty peevish.
Do you have a field guide or something for identifying Neds and chavs? Based on his reaction (and performance as of late), I'm starting to suspect we may have trapped one. Are they catch and release or what?
On topic...I have exactly one ear hair, and it's in my right ear. My wife thinks it's riotously funny to yank it out when I'm concentrating on something else and happen to be sitting next to her. It always grows back, though. :\ |
