Well I'm off to the sunny south tomorrow and I just finished everything on my packing list. I was looking at the mirror and seeing my permanant winter coat, I decided to just 'trim' some length. Having not done this ever before my stomach is now bald and I still look like wolfman chest. I'm going down for a friends wedding with about 20 guys I grew up with. I will never ever hear the end of this.

There must be a life lesson here somewhere.

You get made fun of for having a hairy body, but then you get made fun of for trying to rectify the situation. Apparently you really can please everyone all of the time.

I need to start collecting these, I've always said you could get the "funniest member" award. :-p

But what about me! Everyone else maybe. Actually it looks so ridiculous that I do see the humor in it.
 
Do what body builders do and shave your whole body.
 
I don't have that kind of time, I leave tomorrow.

I've got 6 hairs on my chest. I keep waiting for more to show up, but seeing as I'm about 50% grey on top I don't think my chest is going to sprout.

I wonder if Tom relaizes that his phone handset is missing the cord that would connect to the rest of the phone that's missing?

I've thought about shaving my whole body, too, but the amount of effort involved in that would be almost Herculean. I couldn't do it myself... I'd have to hire a whole family of immigrants or something.

I'm really into improving efficiencies. I think one quick run through a bon fire would solve the problem. It might be a tough idea to market.

:smile: Good eye! Old Man Magnum must just be pretending to own a cordless to pick up a nearby bodacious babe.

Sheep shears should do quick work of the winter coat, just don't catch a nipple in them.
