BanjoJack, if you've got a lot of hair, and a need to shampoo on a regular basis, "Suave" is good to have! :XD:

Each day when I get up, the first thing I do is look for comments from certain people, and it always makes my day to see something from you. Your quotes are always spot on or how my friend from the UK says "brilliant!"



I won't argue with you, fair maiden, though you flatter me...undeservedly! I will, instead, quote Will Rogers:

"There are two theories as to arguing with a woman...
neither works!" :XD: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

In my case, a razor is more practical. Eyesight I got. Hair I don't. Next question; I am not willing to swap. I have uncommonly good eyesight, and an uncommonly bald head.

Well, then, Suave shampoo is unnecessary, I guess.

As to vision, I have uncommon hindsight, but little, if any, foresight! A sidenote: My eyes are deep brown, which has been attributed to my being completely full of bullsit. When they turn blue....means I'm about a quart low! I am curious as to what color is attributed to chickensit?

I try not to have razors around the house. Too tempting for the Sgt. Major!

I might add...often, you also show uncommon insight. :thumbup: :XD:

My latest trip to the doctor, for my checkup, He told me to read the smallest line I could on the eyechart. I read about half of it. Changed to right eye, read the whole thing. It was the 20/10 line. At least something still works. I can easily remember my eyesight, as it is the same as the year: 20/13. Or as they called it, 20/10 plus 3. I am truly thankful for this, and for my unusually acute night vision. The doctor commented that my vision was uncommonly good for any age, and really unusual for someone 59.

Art was 90 years old and had played golf every single day since his retirement 25 years earlier.

He went home one day and told his wife he was giving up golf. She was upset and asked why. He said that his eyes had gotten so bad that he could not see where the ball goes after he hits it; The wife suggested that he take her brother Marvin with him because Marvin has perfect eyesight and can tell him where the ball goes. Art said no, he is 103 years old and would be worthles. Wife insisted he give it a try, So next day Art nand Marvin went to play. Art hit the ball and asked if Marvin saw where it went. Marvin said "Of course I did, I have perfect eyesight". Art said "well.e is it?"



Marvin said "I don't remember".

Being an elder I guess I would like to think I would get respect. While living to an advanced age is impressive one has to earn respect. At this stage of my life I wish to put my views on line & see if there is any thing there that deserves respect.

Just a way of saying that I am 7 years older than you.
