Are we having fun yet?

how about "rain guage haircut" ?  My friends always say in summer "let us know when it starts to sprinkle since you have the rain gauge haircut".  Well ... I've never been wrong with the rain forecast ... LOL

I never got called any names. One guy I know thought maybe I had cancer which I didn't have then or now. He just could not understand why I shaved my dome. I like it this way and that is what counts.

Probably not quite the response you were after, but your penis comment made me think about a well known comedien over here Dara O Brien.  He hosts a show on the BBC called Mock the Week and the panels of comics repeatedly likened him to the link below - they referred to as penis sausage.  All in jest though as I suspect is most of your comments:

No problem.  I send them to the pits where they're doused in vinegar and rolled in cayenne.  Never a peep after that.

Cool Avitar Ming !

Back to the subject , I think I got some comments when I first started shaving my head but it has been so long ago I don't anymore.  If by chance there were any I would ignore them !

[baldjoeg]

Well said guys!!!

Thanks, guys. You are a lot of fun. Sadly, the name calling has slowed down a bit - I think they are getting used to the idea. I have managed to add "penis with ears" to my collection, but that is about it.

So you get to know me a bit:

I am supposed to be retired from the investment IT world, but I need to do more than play all the time. I volunteer in a hospital, I am in a Physical Therapist Assistant degree program (yeah, me and the kids in school), and for fun I like to play tennis and do metal work (welding, cutting, etc.).

It is my opinion that I need to do something totally new to me at least once a year. Kinda like reinventing myself. This forces me to be a humble, rank, newby quite often. I have every reason to be humble, but this serves as a good reminder for me and I get to do lots of new, interesting things. Being a sly, looks like a keeper to me. I'll get you a picture nextime I see some daylight.

Best,

Chuck

Welcome Chuck.

Great thing is that Sly is compatible with every interest / hobby you listed. It's definitely a keeper.

Sounds like a great idea to me. As FG said, Sly fits well with all that!

Joe, you look good bald. Even better when the guy next to you is also bald, lol.

Thanks for the photo op.
