Nah, it was one log and AD.  ;)

He thought it was worth $900 and I thought it was priceless--two's enough for me  ;D

I have one of each flavor. What more could a man want?  ;)

I had to read this a couple of times until I figured out you were talking about kids. ;D

Oh oh.... now I think I got both of us in trouble. :D

 :)I hate to say it but were old...  Yes I have picked up a few of my Dad's critiques.  It wasn't so long ago I had my hair in a pony tail and the old man kept giving me a hard time.  I can see the "individual expression" of the piercings and tattoos, except that so many people have em there not individuals anymore.  I guess there is a time and place for everything, once you see that people rely on that first appearance for a judgement of you, its time to be accountable of yourself.  If tattoos are covered up, and piercings aren't too many, I pretty much let it slide, but I tend to stare when they have tats running all the way down their arms or going up the neck, and rings coming out the nose like a bull.  I still don't understand the point of piercing the lip, sometimes the eyebrow doesn't look too bad but it doesn't serve any obvious purpose either.
  In the end, as an employer if you feel that an appearance has an effect on production or business you should feel free to discuss the issue with the person.  If things can't be agreed upon it should probably be considered that the person cares more about the look than about the job.  I for one know that jobs are important.  I also feel that people look at me differently when my appearance is clean cut than when I am looking all grungy.  I try to take my days activities into account before I decide what to wear and whether to skip the shave or not.
  Everyone always has such good stuff to talk about on here, I can't keep up with it all... 8)
