vanity has its uses

I got twitted last night, about the length of my hair.

It's long, but it's not quite yet to the neck, which is when I usually get it cut.

I told neighbor that, well, most males my age have either thinning hair or no hair at all, whereas I have this lush luxuriant foliage.

Most males my age have things I don't have, and so this is my particular vanity, something to show off. God gave me at least one thing about which to flaunt.

I've always worn my hair long, but the reason I gave him is only the superficial reason, not the real one.

I was wearing my hair long even as a kid, when long hair on a boy was definitely not "cool."

I get my hair cut every 3 to 4 years. When I do get it cut, it’s donated to Locks of Love.

A nice article - you need to click the post to realize it.
Cliff notes get you nowhere...

Not going to happen. Why can’t bloggers post the whole article? If it is really good, people will follow the link to their blog for more.

Absolutely agree - this should have been posted completely - I don’t like blogpimps either.

But it was a nice story...even though it was written by a blogpimp....

To me a blog pimp is someone posting partial blog posts to drive people to read their sites to drive up hit counts and get potential ad hits.

Post the whole post here, see my post above - I thought it was a nice article, when you do that people will go to the site to read more (if it’s a worthy article, which this is)

There are a lot of bloggers posting partial articles here, it does get annoying to many, so much so that people will not click to read the rest of the article.

This is one of those articles - it was a funky post in the first paragraph, viking kitty potential to those of us who don’t know this poster (like me)...but IF you clicked the link you realized what a touching, nice article it was.

How many people will never click the link - will never see a touching article - because it was snipped in the same manner all the other blog pimps do here?

If I was in a different mood I probably wouldn’t have clicked the link - and I would have missed the article.
I would have bypassed it as a strange vanity blog post.
I would have missed a touching article.
How many people will miss it? Tired of the blog pimps....

Okay. Fair enough.
frank has been here a long time and CC is not a blog, but think what you want. I should not have posted. Should mind my own business. :-)

I wish he’d post the whole story again - straight - full.
(Change the Title or something to repost - or at a later date)
It was really touching.
Half the people who posted here never read further.
And if I didn’t click the link I’d be scratching my head too and moved onto another thread.
A shame.....

A question: In your picture you look to have an ear and fairly short hair. Plastic surgery or not you?
