    Someday, I'll just be able to click my heels three times, say "home sweet home" and for the rest of my life I'll have no hair anywhere on my body except my head and my eyebrows...

    One can dream I suppose...

    and shave my TOES.

    sigh. I'm a hobbit.

    Hmm, I haven't noticed that wool is any more windproof than any other fiber. It's all in how each fiber is knitted and the resulting material.

    I've got wool jerseys that I can freeze my tookas off in just as easily as the equivalent weight and density Lycra.

    How do you feel about mushrooms?
    Are you never more than two hours away from your next meal?
    Do you have a serious collection of things that don't really serve any purpose but you don't want to throw away (mathoms)?

    If you answered yes to all of those, you are probably a hobbit, albeit a very tall hobbit.

    Mushrooms are da bomb. And I can answer "Yes" to all of the others and I have hairy toes(at least the big ones and the ones next to those) too. At least you're not alone.

    It's true. My grandmother got less and less hairy as she got older. NO hair on the legs, nothing really under her pits either.
    And unlike men, at the age of 90, she had no hairs growing out of her ears or the top of her nose either

    Maybe it's a wax/wane thing? (didn't originally intend the pun, but okay, wax, get it?)

    b/c at my age, if I miss a week of tweezing, there's a solid bank of hair from each side of my eyebrows, all the way across the bridge of my nose and most of the way down to my eyelashes, and so much hair growing out of my nose it's hard to be grateful I don't have a mustache.
