No, it wasn't, and I'm sorry if you took it that way. This was not in fact an attack of your statement, but meant to address the same audience that led you to include the "straight" disclaimer.

I'm not afraid of barbers. Heck, back when I was regularly getting my hair bleached, I spent more time at the barbers than during the latest period of short-hairedness. I find that long hair needs to get recolored perhaps half as often as short hair needs to be cut, but the former takes an hour or so while the latter uses up all of five minutes.

No kidding. It's about -1 here.

And I will go so far as to say Tom Cruise looked damn good in both MI movies, and Top Gun.

I wear my hair past my shoulders, and right now it's part purple and part my original color (black). I don't have any problem at all with it. I'm even planning on growing it out longer. And maybe dying it again.

As for the whole girlfriend issue...well, I'm not going to change how I look. Besides, I've yet to even attempt asking out a girl.

It's actually hard to grow a beard in that weather, 'cause the hairs stay inside to keep warm.

The forcast for tomorrow morning is -35 with a balmy -52 windchill, but that's what they said about this morning too and they were wrong. I'll believe it when I feel it... or can no longer feel anything, as the case may be.

Mwahaha! It is a balmy 28.1 degrees out here!

Wait... are ya'll using Celsius?

To comment on today's news post: I knew a guy who, as an FMV fan, thought Five Minute Doom was about the funniest thing he had ever read. Of course, he was in sixth grade at the time... but still... Just don't discount brief humor; it can be more effective than long stuff.

Let's see, what do I believe in? It's exam week (drawing the strange looks for giggling over Voyagers after finishing), so I'm not going to get real involved here.

I firmly believe that, somewhere, there's a place where 6 by 9 equals 42, and where "soon" is concretely defined by the International Scientific Measurements system. I also may or may not believe that Canada is a myth created by our government to give rise to the State Of Fear, depending on whether or not John Ashcroft is reading this.

Wow. I'm tireder than I thought.

I have long-ish BLUE-BLACK hair. What do you say to that? My friend thinks it's hot, so it's okay with me

It's -42 here :cry:

I think I'll stop now.
