New Year Resolution

[The Ancient Brit]

S’mae (hi) chaps. If you have not made a New Year’s resolution then follow my example and resolve to keep your hair short for 2006. A style such as a flat-top crew cut, a middle hairstyle, a low hairstyle or even a high hairstyle will do the job but nothing longer than two inches although if you are over fifty and balding you could run to as much as two and three quarter inches to cover the baldness. Visits to the hairdresser at fifteen-day intervals should do the trick.

The advantages are better hygiene and the elimination of the negative effects of long hair on human intelligence development due to long hair consuming a great deal of nutrition thus robbing the brain of energy. If you have wondered why women think so differently from us men, this could be the answer.

Hair is a very important issue that shows your cultural standards and mental and moral state.

Ok, so where has this load of rubbish come?

The link below will take you to a BBC news item that will reveal all.

The link will provide a further link to the Official web site of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. If you go there do take advantage navigating to the Korean Friendship Association where you can play their rather jolly Hymn Video (Song of National Defence). It has an English translation complete with a bouncing ball over the relevant words. I have not seen that device since the 50’s when I attended Saturday Morning children films at my local cinema. The sing-along is sure to cheer you up no end.

I did look for tractor production figures at the site but found none. I am probably thinking of another freedom loving peoples’ democracy, now no longer with us.

And I thought we had it bad under Mr Blair!
Wonder if this is something that will be introduced in Labours 3rd term?? ;D ;D

[The Ancient Brit]

Bad under my mate Tony Blurr? The best Tory Prime Minister we have ever had!

I hope you enjoyed the sing-along if you visited the KDRP web site. Below is a short cut to it.

Hi Denis, the short-hair thing is so 2005.... Get with the times; you're reading a year-old news!

Perhaps 2006 is a good year for long hair:

With ref. to TAB second para.

I'm surprised no one has chosen to mention the seminal Samson & Delilah OT story?

It tells us that Samson's great strength came from his long hair. The treacherous, and very persistent, Delilah finally got the better of Samson. Why Sampson persisted visiting Delilah after several earlier attempts never fully explained. Given her earlier attempts to wheedled the secret from him, and repeatedly fail, says much about Sampson. Perhaps he was not only very strong (1000 dead with his jaw bone of an ass!) but also just plain 'thick' and the wily Delilah richer thanks to the Philistine heavy mob !

"When Samson slept with his head in Delilah's lap she beckoned the men to shave off his hair. Once again she shook him and shouted, Samson! Wake up! The Philistines are upon you.!"
Samson shook himself to fight the Philistines, but his hair was gone. His strength was gone. The Philistine soldiers jumped upon Samson and beat him badly. Samson was overcome. Delilah, in the name of love, had betrayed him completely." Oh my! :{

S'mae Comet,

I had not noticed the dateline. You could be right; I am behind the times. You must make allowance for the fact I am a Wrinkly (70 this year).

[The Ancient Brit]

Has anybody noticed that the three advertisements accompanying this thread relate to hair products? I find that a bit scary.

[Blockhead]

The 2 addies! Well spotted TAB! Excellent observation m'man!

As for making some allowance for your longevity [Who is the oldest punter/player on SNC anyway!?], rather than lopping off your hair why not try to regain some lost vitality by growing your hair longer and combing it with the jaw bone of an ass! Then posting the 'after' picture on Stans!

well I keep mine cut close as my clippers will cut it twice a week and something to think about, The Good Lord gave all men the same amount of male hormones, and if you want to waste yours growing hair, that is your business, i have better uses for my hormones!
