Shorts - youa re sharing too much again. This is a family site and you should probably keep that kind of thing between you and DH. Also, you might want to invest in a NoNo (Google it).

Hey, save yourself many many dollars. DW and I have not been in to have a commercial haircut in about 20 years. Just think of the thousands of dollars we have saved in the cut, fuel and time. Google "RoboCut". We cut our hair using a vacuum cleaner - - - well, and Robocut. My cut takes me about 5 minutes plus wifey does the neck for me. And, it is cut everytime exactly the way I
want it cut, not how the barber thinks it should look on this day. Might be a bad day out - - guess what he thinks. .............. Our son got on the kick about 7 years ago and has thanked us ever since. He was paying $25 a cut in his building to have his cut and he has to have his looking good everyday. We love it and love the time it saves and the results. It will not work if your hair is over about 10" long and the longer hair does take a bit more time to cut.

More ph00..................................BYE

Bob

Robocut huh?

That might be the way to go and less blood vs me swinging the weed wacker over my shoulder trying to trim my back and shoulder hair

Still though I think the pink and grey striped scars from the wacker look very nice on my leggs after I get a good summer tan on the boat

I've seen the forecast change 3 times in 8 hours here. How far away are you?
I'm 70 miles west on 70 then south another 35 miles, tho it's a straighter lone for me to take K68 to 35 north.
Yep, KS is the merging point for weather, earlier this year we had a day that started with early morning snow, thunderstorms midday and sunny and 65f by evening. Next morning we had fog.....
We badly need this rain tho, it can keep going for a couple more days and I'd be happy, pasture sure needs it
Starting to look doubtful on the KC trip, I may be heading to Denver Saturday

Same here, none all winter and in the last week or so ghe cats are knocking them down right and left
They've killed one in the house and 5 in the garage, and those are just the ones we know about. I'm thinking the neighbors burning pastures must have displaced them

Looks like the forecast is looking bad for the weekend now. The morning news was talking about the possibility of rotating storms with the weekend system.

Yep, me too - -- wifey too. A friend bought this thing called a Flowbee that was similar to RoboCut. He swore by it. Went over and watched him cut his hair - - could not believe how quick. So, I cut mine while there. Played around with it slowly getting the feel. When I was done, I had it exactly the way I like it. So, looked on the web and found this RoboCut which was an upgrade to the Flowbee. We both love it - - so easy and always exactly what you want. You can even cut the dog's hair with it if it will not spook.

Tired - - worked on the RV all day. Trying to get it ready for the big trip. Lots to do - - it has been stored for too long, so needs a good buff out, purging, babying, some minor repairs. Soooo, grabbing a ph00 and go relax a while, then hit the sack early up early - - it is the roof of the RV tomorrow morning before it gets too hot.

............

Bob

Weed Whacker Words is a great game to play...try spelling your name on your back in the mirror.
Last time Lary and I played that game, we had several words before we had to reload the Whacker.
We laughed and we laughed and we laughed.
Mom didn't think it was funny when we did her back too.
Butt Braids never seemed to catch on.
Tried a FlowBee on neighbors pets...worked well...

Glazed LEGG ala whacker is still lots of fun.

This place is weird.

That's exactly the way I feel too! The way I look at it, if God had wanted us to have short hair, he'd make it stop growing at some point. And if you remember, His Son had long hair. Just like me! I think that makes me somewhat lord-like, don't you agree?



Morning.

It is Friday, April 25th.

Morning.

Bob, the Flowbee was the one I was thinking of. I wondered where it went. So the Robocut is the upgrade. I'm tempted. I do love tools.

Chaikwa = Lordly Locks

Scotty, bless your heart.

T-rad, how are yall dong with the weather out there? Everything ok?
