  1. That wasn't actually a haircut. That was just the stage my hair was at as it was growing in after having been buzz-cut for so many years. Here's a picture I just took with my hair the way I usually wear it when I go out. It's a much cleaner look. Sorry about the rumpled t-shirt. I've been in bed most of the day and that's what I wear when I'm in bed. Yes, those are boxer-briefs below the t-shirt. Deal with it.
  2. Slightly off-topic, but still of interest, I hope: Xerox, the brand-name for a type of photocopier. Band-Aid, the brand-name for a type of bandage. Jell-O, the brand-name for a gelatin dessert. All three company's brand-names are frequently used to generically describe similar products. All three companies are in a protracted struggle to maintain their legal marks. Xerox seems to be fighting a losing battle because several prominent dictionaries list xerox as a verb for making a photocopy of something and Xerox has been unable to put a stop to it.
  3. Mine is a bit longer than yours. I think that's what you mean.
  4. Don't look at it as the hazard of a job well done. Be damn proud of yourself and let that be enough. Just look at the rest as climbing a weird corporate ladder that just happens to wind its way through your wonderful state. One day you'll be their CIO.
  5. I don't mean reducing myself to a skinhead. I'll leave a few millimeters of hair. If you're familiar with Wahl clippers I'll be using a #3 comb to buzz my hair. I may still chicken out. I like the long hair but it's sort of showing its age. I'm not really someone who's into spending a lot of time on my hair, but my sister says I should get some kind of intensive conditioning. She just had it and her hair, which is like mine, is so smooth and silky.
  6. You are still as adorable as ever Joe. In fact I quite like your hairstyle. My older nephew used to have long hair like mine. When I saw him last night he had buzzed it all off. Now I'm thinking about doing the same thing. Thanks Zilar, but I really only like myself with very short or very long hair.
  7. I always favored Geno's in South Philly. I love all the lights and the food is good. There another famous place across the street, but I can't remember the name of it now. They're the place that claims to have invented the cheesesteak. Oh, I think it's called Pat's.
  8. You're probably right. But you know how much I love to make trouble, LOL.
  9. You're not an idiot. Cause I'm sure you've learned your lesson to at least make regular backups to a thumb drive. I'll send you one if cost is an issue. Keep in mind I've got backups of the final version of every story, chapter and poem you've done so you'll always be covered on that front. I do that for all my authors.
  10. Can I get in there and check for myself? Body hair isn't a big issue for me. My boyfriend was moderately hairy. It was nice to run my fingers through it. Especially his chest. I don't know how to classify my hairiness. I've got hair on most of my body but it's very light in color and density. I can go a week without shaving and it's barely noticeable. I keep the pubes trimmed cause I don't think anybody wants a mouth full of hair when they're expecting a lollipop. Smooth guys are fine with me too. Just please don't trim the pubes completely off so that you wind up looking like a prepubescent child.
  11. This absurd statement: You could probably get a good Philly Cheesesteak in Mexico. Jack's gonna smack you upside the head for that comment! And if he doesn't I will.
  12. Just because you're my friend I'm going to divert attention from that absurd statement and post a couple photos of myself.
  13. So true and it's so sad. A few of them even have the distinct aroma of bug spray. All perfumes trigger my allergies on some level, and a few, as I mentioned earlier, will trigger a migraine. How about some shampoo recommendations Jamie.
  14. Um, that was a cage he threatened to keep you in Jack. Not a closet.
  15. Chase could kill himself due to his grief, and then Eric and Jon would get The Shadows to become part of Instinct and they'd go on to be more popular and durable than The Rolling Stones.
  16. She'd better live, but I'd like to see Helen get her butt lightly peppered with buckshot.
  17. Kevvers, it seems to be mostly Cuban women regardless of age. So I think it's a cultural issue rather than an age issue. Off-Topic: Ugh, you reminded me of my first grade teacher. Ugliest and fattest woman you'd never want to meet. Also the sweetest lady with a heart of gold; or maybe chocolate. Anyway, she wore makeup that I swear was an inch thick. She made us kiss her on the cheek every morning and every morning we students would spit out chunks of makeup.
  18. As much as I dislike The Bitch
  19. The guy who smells clean, scented and just like himself is me. Ivory soap is all you'll ever smell on my skin and Pantene shampoo is all you'll ever smell in my hair. Anyone wanna give me a test smell? I don't know what it is with some of the women here in Miami. It's like they've taken a bath in their darned perfume. There have been times in a restaurant when I've had to move because the perfume smell was so overpowering it would start to trigger a migraine. I've traveled a lot and this seems phenomenon seems to be unique to Miami. In other cities I can tell the women wear too much perfume, but nothing close to like what we have here.
  20. Yes. Ever since first grade when I made sure to sit next to this handsome boy who smelled wonderful. I learned years later the smell came from his hair creme. Hair creme, like Brylcreem were popular back when I was in elementary school. We didn't have hair gels back then, but it was basically the same thing. Ever since then I've been very much aware of everyone's personal scent. These days I appreciate each person's unique body scent absent any of these darned colognes that cover up the real person. Why are so many people afraid to smell like themselves?
  21. If that section of the handbook about corrupting youth means what I think it does I wish the publisher would remove it. It's not true that all of us older guys are looking to take advantage of you younger guys. I wish James would stop by and share his thoughts cause I know they're the same as mine. I'm proud to say one of the things I like about being gay is having a chance to show the younger generation that we can be friends, mentors, maybe even stand-in gay fathers, which is how one member refers to me. Yes, there are guys out there who want to prey upon young kids both gay and straight. It's a sad reality. But at least a few of those kids will know that not all of us are like that.
  22. Silly boy. Dimitri is going to use goat propelled grenades fired at the ranch to take everyone out. The police uniform is just so he can get close enough to the house.
  23. I used to live in Colorado. Grant to be exact. Had a ranch there. My recollection is there weren't a lot of bright politicians or police anywhere in the state. Of course that was real and this is fantasy.

    It's 4:40 AM there isn't it? As your unofficial nanny I want you both to goto sleep immediately!

    The same thing exists here for certain degrees. I know in my father's case when he graduated from law school he could pay an fee and get upgraded to a doctorate. He thought it was a bunch of foolish nonsense. So do I. Why does it seem like you need a doctorate just to figure out the school systems?
