LOL... no, I haven't had that. But I was going through my niece's myspace and was completely out of the loop on all of the stuff on it. I had to go and google half of the things she was talking about just so that I could know if it was bad or not!

heh... my husband went out on a beer run a few years back with my brother. My brother got carded, but my husband didn't.

When my husband asked the girl behind the counter about why my brother was carded and not him. She replied that my husband's hair line showed that he was older.

My brother is 4 months older than my husband. And they were both around 27-28 at the time.

Geez, Brander! All those links, and not a decent looking bear in the bunch! :-(

Take it easy! I don't need to know the birthday of every male on the planet (Nor do I really care!)

And I don't need to see g*d knows how many images of that fugly Spanish guy from No Country for Old Men!

Fer Chrissakes! post a link or two, now and then, to a pic of someone you find attractive...

Here's a guy I wouldn't mind working out with! http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s313/jtreepro/139872.jpg

So
b you're
my long-lost twin brother Roger!

I often used to wonder ...

>I've already done been chastised, reprimanded, scolded, chided, cornered, told many times, so I don't need more.

You're thuch a drama queen. :)

LOL

Well, there probably isn't enough flesh on this guy for you John, but here's a bear for ya'!

Don't worry, Brander, I was just messin' with ya! I forgot the smiles and sarcasm tags...

I confess, you out-linked me.

I don't think anything further needs to be added to the 'how-many-links' discussion above, but I'd simply add my agreement that a whole slew of links probably means that nobody is going to follow them up, let alone me. All a matter of artistic judgment I guess, of which there is no shortage among the good people here!

Carry on...

I stumbled across this 'blog' which features a 'beard of the week' page. It combines scholarly material with nice pictures of guys with beards! :)

> This week's beard belongs to Albrecht Dürer, easily in my top-10 of most extraordinary artists ever. This amazing self-portrait was painted when the artist was 29 years old, in the year 1500. Is it symbolic that Dürer paints himself in this remarkably self-possessed, self-confident pose, looking directly at the viewer? It's also interesting that he paints himself more as an aristocrat rather than with the commonly affected palette in hand, as a painter. What is the power in this painting that makes it feel so much as though it communicates directly with the viewer across the more than five centuries since Dürer painted it. Honestly, it creates for me a frisson that very few works of art manage to do.

Here's someone else's idea of a 'beard of the week':

ONE more??

I just got back from the North Texas Irish Festival... lots of men in kilts.

Did y'all know how sexy men in kilts can be?!

The hottest one I saw was a man walking around in a full USA Navy military kilt suit. He was an older gentleman, and he made you almost proud to have him walk by you. Just very striking in his uniform.

There were some other men that need to know when to NOT wear a kilt... they aren't for everyone.

A Scotsman clad in kilt left the bar one evening fair
And one could tell by how he walked he'd drunk more than his share
He staggered on until he could no longer keep his feet
Then stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

cho: Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

Later on two young and lovely girls just happened by,
And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye
You see yon sleeping Scotsman who is young and handsome built
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath their kilt.

Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath their kilt.
They crept up to the sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be
Then lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
And there behold for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt
Ws nothing but what God had graced him with upon his birth

Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
There was nothing there but what God gave upon his birth

They marveled for a moment then one said we'd best be gone
But let's leave a present for our friend before we move along
They took a blue silk ribbon and they tied it in a bow
Around the bonnie spar that the Scot's lifted kilt did show

Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
Around the bonnie spar that the Scot's lifted kilt did show

The Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled toward a tree
Behind a bush he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees
Then in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes
He said, "Lad I don't know where you've been but I see you won
first prize"

Ring ding diddle diddle i de o
Ring di diddle i o
He said, "Lad I don't know where you've been but I see you won
first prize"

>And this is fabulous!

Um... NO!

>Did y'all know how sexy men in kilts can be?!

YES!

>There were some other men that need to know when to NOT wear a kilt... they aren't for everyone.

Well, yes, I'll agree there, but I'll bet that some of the men <i>I</i> find attractive in a kilt wouldn't suit your tastes! :-)

OH, OK! Yeah... Skinny legs don't make it! :-)

Yeah... skinny legs and me don't mix, either. Gimme some meat on them! :-)

heh... yeah, I've heard that one before, too. It's funny some of the things men will say about a kilt.

At the 20 storey office block I used to work in in London, there was a middle-aged guy who kind of stood out among the rest of the staff as his habitual attire was a kilt and long socks, together with all the trimmings, together with a leather jacket adorned with studs and chains. And his accent was more London than Edinburgh. There was always a kind of sudden silence when he got in the lift (elevator) and a rush of comments and titters when he got out.

A couple of years after I left there, I was travelling alone on a ferry crossing the North Sea (it used to take about 24 hours, or so it seemed) and to my horror I noticed this very same guy across the restaurant, still dressed in his distinctive costume. It got worse - he spotted me and came over to check whether he was right in remembering that I'd once worked in the same place as him, and settled himself down at my table.

And the moral of the story is - don't judge by appearances! He quickly revealed himself to be a perfectly normal and pleasant chap and we whiled away a good part of the tedious journey in interesting conversation.
