When I arrive in front of the creator
One of the first things I’m gonna ask him is about the damned hair. What is it about the aging process that makes you lose hair on your head, and gain it in your ears, nose, and back? I’m not excited about the process of losing my hair but I can cope; having to constantly yank and trim a mountain of ear and nose hair is getting ridiculous. What do I need that hair for? Why didn’t I need it when I was 18? What about Andy Rooney?
These are the burning questions in my mind. I should burn the hair in my nose, I could start a brushfire!
Need more coffee.

I’ve always been curious about that, too. Going bald didn’t bother me, but at least that hair had a purpose; I have no idea what ear hair is supposed to do.
I notice you are working with the exact theme as I. Just how did you manage to change the sizing of the font? Mine happen to be a great deal smaller than on your website. It’s extremely tough to look at on a laptop.
“Eh, What’s that lad? I’ve provided you agents who can hear you.”
P; you either spend 1500 words explaining the meaning of “blue” or you drop in a non sequitor nobody understands. Do you have a ” medium” setting?
LOL: I was intentionally short because you love to complain of my lengthiness. Do you have a medium complaint setting? LOL
I initially thought of “man is made in God’s image.” Ok. So time ad infinitum God is telling us to think of Him as balding and is has both beard and hair growing out of His ears that He never trims.
Enough hair makes it impossible to hear clearly. You mentioned burning your hairs and I thought of ritual fires. But not just anyone is permitted to approach Him with the fire so He may hear prayers, pleas, questions.
You got me laughing initially, but then I turned it to the serious side. Sorry.
Q: What else accumulates in the old that is not so present in the young?
A: Falling short of our potential. Or, in other words, what Someone may expect of our life. (You man know a shorter word for that, but I didn’t want to scare the atheists away.)
As a result of all this, I may begin referring to those wiry, stubborn, unsightly hairs as “sin hairs.”
(You maY know a shorter word for that…
Roflmao! You are a nut.
I also provided you with a legitimate parallel.
So, you’re saying hair= sin and god is capable of sin? your parallel isn’t holding any water. And I want to ask the Creator because those ‘Agents” are incapable of his knowledge
Funny, I just recently posted the exact same thing… Very irritating that odd hair!
wrong meaning. What blocks our way to God is our sins. We grow them. He provides us a means to purge them.
You’re just reaching now lol.
I’ll admit to stretching. I gotta pull on those sproingy things in order to clip them properly.
So, assuming this holds true for all males. that we grow greater amounts of hair in spots where there was little or none before, as we grow older. ( This is aside from the issue of hair loss, specifically on the top of ones noggin.) Then the old adage must be true:
“Hair today, gone tomorrow!!!”
Boy, you pulled Pascal’s string, og.
lol.
P thinks everything is a metaphor for something else. I just want to know what the deal is with the ear hair.
Don’t forget the eyebrows. And why do the ones that resemble #2 copper wire grow a centimeter a day?
Oh, man, you know it!!! I got one that will be 4 inches long before I know it!!
Ed, he does that regularly.
Og knows that I’m reactive. He loves to hear my perspectives even when he doesn’t agree with them. And he is responsible in large measure for sparking my increase in blogging with comments to me that rarely appear here on his own site. So, if you like (or have been troubled by) anything I’ve written in the last few years, you can thank (or blame) Og for much of it. Lord knows I do.
“And why do the ones that resemble #2 copper wire grow a centimeter a day?”
Actually I wonder if that’s one of the major causes of death in the elderly.
The energy required to pump out a 6″ long, bulletproof eyebrow hair in an hour or two has to pull juice from some other actually important system.
I have a sneaking suspicion that it’s linked to natural selection. For the best odds of getting healthy offspring, would a nubile female prefer an old, crusty, hairy guy, or a young smooth dude with a fresh tankful of wigglers?
Of course, throw enough wealth and security into the mix, and all bets are off. Until you leave for work, that is. Better make sure you hire a pool cleaner and yard guy that’s older & hairier than you are…
I wouldn’t hate nasal hair so much except for that fact that it is so damned painful to tweeze. Yeowch!
(And trimming it involves sticking sharp instruments up the nostril. Hobson’s Choice, I calls that. Tweeze or stab?)
Ellison: Stab.
