Liese, it's OK to be mohawksexual. I am. :)

(The underage eyecandy in New Orleans just shaved his hair into a mohawk and it looks reallllly good on him. Right after I started talking about visiting. Damn, make it more tempting, whydontcha?)

Hee, meara, that`s a truth about myself I`m willing to live with. I love it just as much on the punk girls in the mosh pit. I had another comment but it devolved into tmi about my sex life. Suffice it to say mohawks==hawt in eye of beholder where beholder=me.

Underaged dudes in mosh pits tend to land on my friend Shannon and me.

We look at them and sigh... oh so pretty.

But then we notice: There are no tattoos. He's too little. Throw him back.

I have caught up. Wow! Tons of posts. I confess, skimmed. I've had good docs, stupid docs, insensitive docs, and amazing docs. That said, I do an excellent job at avoiding trips to the doc office. After a childhood of every month a doc appointment, and every quarter, a visit with another doc, and being poked/prodded/pointed at (college of medicine + rare disease = living classroom. joy (not)), all that said, my feable brain equates that to "I've had my fair share". I know, I should go. but golly, work is so busy, and the frustrating HMO system says I gotta plan the visit MONTHS ahead of time, unless it's an emergency. Blah. Said too much.

ION - yesterday on All Things Considered, there was a story about video game ratings, so parents could get a sense of what was in the game, and if it was appropriate for kids of various ages. Then they started talking about Xbox Live, and how playing with an anonymous person 'on the other side of the world' leads to a different game play, due to misogynist, racist, homophobic, abuse, etc types of comments. The interviewer asked the interviewee if there was a way to complain and get a real time feedback to ban a player. Interviewee was explaining that it wasn't immediate. Interviewer wasn't grasping the process, so he whips up an example. "So, if I'm playing online with a player, whose screen name is, say, POLAR BEAR, and they say something offensive. I make a complaint to Xbox that player POLAR BEAR said this type of statement, what then happens to POLAR BEAR?" (paraphrase). I couldn't help but think, dude! you just said POLAR BEAR on national radio!

I, for one, welcome our new POLAR BEAR overlords.

Possibly the funniest POLAR BEAR picture EVER: [link]

Oh that's awesome.

It was snapped at just the right moment -- the kid is unaware, but the family off to the side sees what's coming, and the polar bear is just freaky-deaky. It makes me laugh and laugh.

Gronk. I can't even have tea this morning. Evil.

That is an awesome shot. Liked the font too. And Trudy, I marked that lovely post.

Mohawks are cute. I don't really find them sexy (old lady), but I find them adorable on the teens I see with them.

Also, Polar Bear! DH's season ended last night. 26-1. At this time of year the lone loss means no more. They were slightly off and the competition was fearsome. They still get their District Champs banner in a very tough area. It is really tough to watch huge athletic teens cry. My heart broke for them, but I know they will recognize what they have accomplished after the pain of last night fades.
