    9 CL, OTH, is naughty. In a movie, decades back, she’d had to have one foot on the floor, among other no-noes.

    emb, I have mistaken people using those things for the mentally ill, talking to themselves.

    Did anyone else see shadows of Paul Hornung and Bart Starr in the reverse/handoff/pass play? Ah yes, I remember it well.

    Thanks for the birthday wishes. My birthday was quiet, solo and mostly at home. And I feel better for that since I’ve been sick. Debbe, that article about the chemical used in the fryer also helping hair grow, unexpected benefit. But you won’t get any help by eating the fries. Wonder if you rubbed it in? My genetic gift from maternal grandfather is thinning hair.

    Meanwhile, at Berry College in Georgia, there is an “eaglet watch” this week. You can find the site and keep looking in. Both eggs are due within the next few days.

    Mark. Mine, too. Dad had a full head of graying hair when he died at 80. Mom’s hair was thin from about 60 on, died at 78. Some guys w/ hair around the back and scattered hair on top do comb-overs, but I’ve always had crew cuts, so just shave the whole thing periodically. Cut my own hair and beard w/ the barbershop quality machine we’ve had since late ’50s. Oil it regularly.

    Peace,

    Tried the full head shave once at ex’s request. Got ingrown hairs and was very uncomfortable so once was enough. Tried mustache once too, but didn’t grow in thick enough to keep. Never tried a beard since the mustache didn’t work out. I still have more than grandfather did but not as much as dad. Dad kept a full head of hair till he died.

    Was this suggestive on purpose or by accident?
