When you're ready to retire, or have made your money and wish to move on, please do let me know what you do so that I can take overOriginally posted by Old Hack View Postass, I am not going to tell you, and trust me, whatever balls you put up in an attempt to get me to, will fail.

A friend has done this, single friend, who tells me the ladies enjoy it. Not for me thanks, I think the wife would think I was going into crisis. Going for a number 3 on the head, number 3 on the chest and as you suggested, straight cut on the shoulders.Originally posted by FiveTimes View Postgetting back to the OP, you should really book yourself in for a back, sack and crack, underarms and maybe your legs.
Lots of footballers do it - so why not highly successful contractors

Oh dear, once again, that makes no sense at all.

Well making data or rather generating probabilistic data that represents real data is quite a skill in statistical terms. Perhaps Old Hack has a PhD in stats.Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostWell, when you work out how to turn data into information into knowledge and then decisions come back and spout off a little more about how clever you are.

I was looking forward to discussing these advanced techniques with him.
That would also account for why he's bob-proof - far to intelligent for any Bob, y'see?
TBH, I was getting hints of his high IQ in his posts on here.

Tried that once before, in Australia. Very effective. However, out in the outback towns, the locals take a dim view of men wandering around in what to them looks a bit like a dress...Originally posted by Gonzo View PostThe people that live in the middle-east tend to be quite hairy and have an aversion to trimming their hair.
So I would do what they have been doing for thousands of years on the basis that they probably know what they are doing and that is to wear very loose clothing.
