I’ve often wondered why other hair isn’t longer. Why does arm and leg hair stop growing at such a short length, but male beards can grow to any length.

The higher up the hair, the harder it is to trip over.

Long hair is to keep your brain from boiling in the hot sun! That is, till you are about 45. Same as eye brows are to keep the sweat from your brow from flowing into your eyes and blinding you.

We used to see horses somewhat often out here in The Boonies. Nothing for years now. The better horse trailers have often been converted into travel trailers. We still have water mains though.
