My Wish

Yeah, it should be for world peace. Or an end to hunger. Or even another U2 tour this summer (didn't anyone tell them I was leaving?!?) or love.

But I think that, if I only had one wish, I would get rid of nose hair. But not just mine: yours, too. Not that I've noticed yours - quite the contrary - but I think that maybe this is one of those things that's not doing any of us any good, and I'd like to be the guy who takes care of that.

And before someone (not naming names) spouts off about how it's important and our body needs a filter and blah, blah, blah, let me just say that THAT'S why we have technology... to take care of stuff like that without us having to have hair growing in our noses.

Happy weekend, all. After the departure of the MNB's last bass player in a quest for a better work/life/band balance, we have a new guy, and he's playing a solo guitar/vocal gig Saturday night at the Seven Arms in Geneva (in Paquis). I'm going to go cheer him on, and probably
sit in on a tune or two on percussion, and have a great cigar. So if you're in the neighbourhood, give me a shout and we'll meet up. It'll be fun, I promise.

having lived with someone who was nose-hair-free for a time (due to chemo), I can speak with some authority on the topic.
You can stick the sides of your nose together and they STAY that way, without hair.
Sure, it sounds gross now. But it was much more entertaining than it should have been, at the time.

Lol... you guys are killing me, here. I do want to try that nose thing, though. Without the chemo part, preferably.

Why stop at nose hair though?

Why, indeed.
