Do it! You work for yourself, so why not. I'd be mighty impressed!
I'm all talk. I'd chicken out at the last minute. Plus, my mom would cry. She already hates that I have hair down to my shoulders right now. The mohawk would just finish her off.

Ah, you don't want to disappoint mom. It will always grow back, you know. I'm guessing you don't have any tats or strange piercings either.
Hair down to the shoulder, eh? I'm not sure I believe you.

There you girls go again, fishing for photos. You and agelica are such sleazeballs.
Stop objectifying me!!!!!
EDIT: (in case the humor wasn't clear)
I was just about to say, there was no hair to the shoulders in the pics I saw! I was sort of stunned, though, by how much you look exactly as I'd pictured you.
Does this make me a sleazeball too?
And thanks, I'm going to call around later today and see if anyone near here sells Natura products

Man, those pictures really got around, didn't they? Hehe...and no, you're not a sleazeball. Neither are angelica or baraka. They're just typical guys. Oh wait....

Cool. By the way, here's the letter I sent to Purina. If you or anyone else wants to borrow it, feel free:

To whom it may concern,
I have been a loyal Purina customer for many years now and have fed my dogs your Pro Plan foods since they were puppies. I had always been pleased with your products and felt confident that I was feeding my dogs quality meals.
I was saddened to discover that Purina was affected by the recent recall of Menu Foods' products. It was very disheartening to discover that the provider of my dogs’ dry food was involved in selling products that presented a serious health risk to millions of pets. Despite the fact that the products I purchase from you were unaffected by this recall, I can no longer in good conscience buy food products from you.
I am in the process of selecting a new diet for my dogs and will not entertain any Purina products in my search. However, I certainly hope you will take steps to regain the confidence of consumers such as myself so that I might one day consider you again as a food provider. In order to regain my trust, I’d recommend the following actions:
1. Sever all ties with Menu Foods.
2. Launch a new line of foods that are certified as domestically sourced using only high-grade meats and vegetables without any glutens.
3. Establish and publish an extensive review process for ensuring that all foods you sell are safe.
4. Publish more detailed information about the contents and sources of all your products.
5. Resist government regulation of pet food production by demonstrating that you are able to regulate yourself as a responsible organization committed to the best interests of your own business by ensuring the health and safety of your clients’ pets.
I hope to one day return to Purina products. If your organization takes the steps detailed above, I will gladly purchase your products again.
Man, those pictures really got around, didn't they? Hehe...and no, you're not a sleazeball. Neither are angelica or baraka. They're just typical guys. Oh wait....
Hopefully you recall the conversation wherein you told me I could show those pics to anyone I wanted, since according to you, they were some random guy on the internet. I even prefaced sending hippiemom the pics (along with surferdudes! ) by telling her that you told me that! I held onto those pics for an entire year without showing anyone until I got your permission!
As for "objectifying you", while you were publicly calling us sleazeballs unbeknownst to me, I was sending you a pm where I said about 4 super nice things about you, as a person and that happen to have no relationship to your appearance! So there!

And I also wanted to say that your girlfriend is a wonderful woman. I can tell by the hat

The company that recalled tens of millions of containers of tainted dog and cat food Saturday night said they will take responsibility for what happened.

Pet owners said they have some relief after Menu Foods pledged to cover any medical bills if it is found that its products caused the pet's illness or death.
KITV's Catherine Cruz reported that one Hawaii native has a cat that she said suffered because of the company's cat food. Kelly Engles said she believes her cat's kidney problems may be linked to the tainted pet food.
"I don't want a million dollars. I just want Bubba to be taken care of -- and the vet bills to be taken care of," Engles said.
Engles said her 6-year-old cat was close to death just a few weeks ago.
"I'm lucky I didn't lose him because others did lose their pets. I'm thankful for that part, but what kind of life is he going to have from here on out?" Engles asked.
Bubba was diagnosed with failing kidneys after being fed a diet of wet food bought at Keeaumoku Wal-Mart, Engles said.
"They matched the code numbers. I knew he had those actual products," Engles said.
Now, she has a vet bill for $1,100, and while Bubba gained back some of his strength, he's not quite back to normal.
"He wouldn't stand up on his own. He wouldn't move. It was sad -- it was just really really sad," Engles said.
Bubba now must use an IV every other day for the rest of his life, Engles said.
"If I take him to the vet to have the bloodwork done, and the IV and needles, it would come to $150 per month. I don't have that," Engles said.
Engles said she worries every time she has to give Bubba an IV drip. Her cat doesn't understand this new routine, but Engles said keeping him hydrated is key to getting back to the life he knew before.
As of Friday, Menu Foods said its recall includes any wet cuts and gravy style food packaged between Dec. 3 to March 3.
Engles said she is talking to an attorney and is hoping to be part of a class action suit.
Both the FDA and Menu Foods have updated their Web sites to include information about the recall.
Stores are being told to pull all Menu Foods cuts and gravy pet food to check when it was manufactured.
Consumers should stop feeding their pets the product and contact a veterinarian if they have any concerns.

I read somewhere this weekend that the investigators are looking at the wheat source which apparently is someplace in China. The theory is that the wheat was exposed there to a common agricultural rat poison/repellant.
I don't suppose you remember what article you read this in? If you do, could you post a link. Apparently, a plant in Emporia has been closed until Friday, pending the discovery of the source of the toxin. The employees are on unpaid leave until then.
