... I've cut my own hair for the last 5 years.


This is my best idea for a album/new lull topic. Who else poses an arcane/unique skill to them?

shit, you must have saved some serious dough doing that...I knowing the way your hair looks, you do a pretty good job. I used to buzz my hair for awhile to save some money too, kinda got tired of it.


I used to be an excellent Baseball player. Like really good.


some pictures for the hell of it:

I always do my own hair as well, started with the clippers many years ago, now I'm using a Razor.


One of the benefits of going bald, and you don't have to give the barber lots of money!


Noely.

Biff, commendable job on the hair.


Bosco, that's awesome that you can play ball.


Noely, ... keep cutting your hair, indeed.


As for me, I can play Tchaikovsky's Prelude in C# Minor. :)


Or, well, I used to be able to--I would need a week or so to bring it back up to speed.

I have this weird thing where I can guess coin flips correctly a bunch of times. My best record is 50 in a row.

@androidgeoff: Heavy bit of intuition, there! Nice. Play the lotto, dude. Seriously. Better yet--roulette. Trust in your intuition and make some money.


@Biff: I can play a fairly good cover of The Pills Won't Help You Now. :)

Hmmm. Some whirly facts:


Would you believe Connor is 10 and a half???


I'd love to have another one (biological clock sounding off like Big Ben)


I'm at work right now.


I sometimes trim my own bangs (that's fringe to you folks across the pond)


The only meat I consume is fish.


I hate ketchup with a passion.


I have clubbed thumbs.


I can play the piano but I haven't yet tried to teach myself to play The Pills Won't Help You Now.


I can play a little guitar (like, 4 or five chords and simple picking), I can play the harp sort of (it's a little like playing the piano sideways).


I took bagpipe lessons for 2 years but I wasn't any good. Unless you relish the sound of drowning cats. For an instrument that doesn't have anywhere near the range say, a piano does, the bagpipes are a freakin tough instrument to learn.

I have a degree in History and will have one in Pharmacy in a few months.


I drive a Saturn.


I spent more on my last haircut than some people do on food in a month.


I procrastinate everything. Even procrastinating.


I write my last university exam ever tomorrow (Friday).


I want to move to southern California but I'm moving to rural northern Ontario instead.


I twist every second or third sentence IRL into a double-entendre or play on words.


I captain an indoor soccer team.


I'm a brilliant liar but shoot myself in the foot by being overly honest all the time.


My Halloween costume is going to be going as myself, except more awesome than usual.

Darkstar, I am guessing your moving to rural northern Ontario for the money.....right? Why else would you live there.......well at least in the winter. Summers in cottage country can be great from what I hear. Did you get wrangled in by one of those rural "WE NEED DOCTORS!!!!" Programs.


BTW, Best.....Costume....EVER!

Rexall recruited me big time. Salary = $135,000/yr for two years. Plus they pay accomodations, massive signing bonus, year end bonus, guaranteed position back here after two years, etc. And one of my best friends is moving out there to work at the same store as me. It's about 85% certain right now. And I could use the change of pace, switch it up.

I drive a blue Sunfire


I volunteer regularly for my sisters special needs school


I am working on my Management Degree and Arts & Cultural Management Degree at the same time. I am planning to finish school in 3-5 years with those two degrees along with a Asia Pacific Management degree and a Bachelor of Commerce.


I am more excited about visiting my grandfathers grave tommorow than I am about Halloween today.


I have slept in the same bed with all my best friends, Male and Female. No sex was ever involved. Most of them snore.


I love Big Turk Bars. It's like a genetic trait in my family. All males love them and all females hate them (including those who marry into the family)


I am involved with coordinating a music festival this summer. No I won't be trying to find out how to book tom and ed. It is a festival to celebrate inner city music so no outside artists.


Red is my favorite colour.


I love Milk.
