    I'll even send you a lock of hair!

    I didn't realize that was a link! You should check out the Coffee thread they are always going on about unwanted hair removal. you could try waxing.

    Are you just shaving your face and head? Wouldn't it show way more commitment if you did the whole body?? I'd throw in some cash for that..

    Well, I had to do, shall we say, "certain parts" prior to my vasectomy a while back and I'm not doing that again!

    Plus, if I do my body, people will have to look at it.

    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    Only in the South Island.

    Up here - Auckland - winter isn't cold by any usual standards. For most of the winter, you're down to t-shirts in the afternoon.

    Bit different in SI, where it might be -1 C, snowing, and a 40 knot southerly. Not too many t-shirts down there!

    Oh you're in Auckland? I have a bunch of cousins who live there.

    I don't know celsius :P but anything negative or snowing sounds too cold for me!

    I checked out your shave the athiest link. That's a really great cause that you're working for! I only wish I could give more. I've bookmarked the page though just in case I'm ever able to in the future.

    95-degrees today (35 Celsius) Time for burgers on the grill... medium rare... with some good beer. I started with this (the raspberry):



    Not bad... but I prefer the Belgian fruit ales. Then I moved on to my old favorite:



    Yummmmm!

    I'll finish off with a few of these:



    Summertime... and the livin' is easy...

    Since your down in Australia I might as well admit that I actually started the evening off with some good ol' Aussie pi**-water:



    Don't tell anyone though... it'll be just between us. Next thing you know they'll think I actually go about swigging Budweiser and Miller Lite.

    Australia?

    You can get shot for making that mistake down here! New Zealand. I know we virtually own Aussie, but you must make the distinction.

    And that Foster's stuff is just about never drunk in the Southern Hemisphere.

    Oops my bad... I suppose I would take equal offense if you mistook us for our Canadian neighbors. Or perhaps I should have phrased it as my old studio mate used to: "Ukranian... Russian... Polish... they're all the same, aren't they?" If you consider that we are a country of immigrants... mongrels, if you will... you'll understand why we have problems relating to the Irish bit**ing that they are not English or why the Israeli's can't get along with the Palestinians. I (a true Aryan: blonde, blue-eyed and of German heritage) eat with my Jewish studio-mate in a Palestinian diner... unless our Chinese studio-partner shows up... in which case we go out to the Thia-Vietnamese restaurant.

    By the way... you'll note that I am well aware that Foster's is "pi** water" but as "pi** water" goes it actually tastes a hell of a lot better than most American versions of the same.
