     Before my wife died nearly 14 years ago, she got me a T-shirt:   
      
   Front: WARNING!! KLUTZ ON THE LOOSE!!   
   Back: DANGER!! ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN!!   
      
     Her response?? "That's him!!". Nice to have the spouse so supportive.

     I hate shaving with a passion. Plus, with the white hair, beard, moustache,   
   and sideburns, I'm a shoo-in to get Senior Citizen Discounts.    
      
     Years ago, with my brothers first wife, I was at a birthday party for his   
   stepson. It was in the summer, so I had shorts and a shirt one. One kid saw   
   my hairy legs, and asked if I was going to shave them. I replied "Not unless   
   I'm going to compete in a swim meet". In that regard, it's TRUE, that body   
   hair creates a drag in the water. I wonder if that applies to ALL hair...   
   facial, underarm, and pubic...although I don't know of many nude swimmers   
   (unless they lose their suit in the pool!!).
