    As long as it's not used to beautify your appearance. But I guess that's the whole point, huh?
    Sorry, couldn't help myself either! [​IMG] [​IMG]

    The verse in question was speaking to women. So go ahead, broid it, but be sure to post a pic of it when you're done. [​IMG]

    YOU GUYS ARE SICK-O! :eek: :rolleyes: :eek:

    (but funny [​IMG] )

    Does not nature itself teach you that having long hair is a shame? Nose, EARS (hello there, old timers), back, forearms. [​IMG]

    Anything over 1/4 inch is TOO LONG except for Chimpanzees [​IMG]

    and there i have my answer - i should trim it, not to beautify myself, but because as a man it is inherently shameful for me not to do so. thanks dr. bob! [​IMG]

    I've heard that hair quantity and growth (or non-growth) areas are genetic.

    I believe I was born this way and I don't think I can change!

    As I near my 40th year on this earth what I want to know is why is my hair falling out from places that I want to have hair (the top of my head), and starting to grow thicker in the places that I don't want to have hair (my back, ears, nose, neck etc.)!?! :eek: [​IMG] :D

    It is, my dear brother, the long term effect of gravity. By the time you reach 70 you will be completely bald, except for your toes which shall be so hairy you will have to go up a shoe size! [​IMG]

    Ah... but if you let it GROW, you might be tempted to color it the shade I use and THEN you'd be going straight to hell! [​IMG]

    I've seen some people where not trimming it was a sin.

    Well! What about eyebrows? I have those wayward kind of eyebrows that need to be harnessed now and then..not bushy, but long strands.....of course, I could use them whilst preaching to get some people in the cross-hair......nah! I trim them....

    Cheers,

    Jim

    Jerry Clower once said that his childhood friend Marcel invented a sure-fire hair grower for those that were going bald, men or women. He listed off the ingredients, which I think included turpentine and pickle juice, and said you just rub it on the top of your head 2 or 3 times a day. Jerry asked him how that would grow hair, to which Marcel replied it wouldn't, but it'd cause the skin on top to draw up so far your sideburns would come together....

    Y'all made me think about that with "broiding your nose hair"....

    It is so refreshing to see us laughing at ourselves and at/with our brethren instead of debating all the time! [​IMG]
