Hrm, not sure it works that way dude. I've been balding since I was 20 (first at the back, then the hairline started to go about two years ago), but my facial hair hasn't accelerated at all. Raw blade once a week keeps the head in check.

Sean Connery was once voted sexiest man in the world...
... he has my haircut.

Just meant that I'm gonna be a slaphead pretty soon and having a beard with that is just gonna look stupid.
Really not looking forward to trying to shave my head, I take lumps out of my face anytime I try that, and I can usually see what I'm at with it. :P

The 80's had the best of everything in my opinion. Ive always wished I was a teenager in the 80's. Also think the 90's were much better than the 00's, and baldness can be very sexy, that is all.

Well I'm 100% fine whether my hair is long or short, it's my personality that shines through, coz that's all women look for eh? :P Well, that and not being on the dole.

Man 24 is great, I only started watching it this morning and I'm on episode 4.

Rjd2 · 17-05-2009 4:23pm

The first series is very good, and it stays strong for a few seasons, but the last few have been awful.:(

Season 6 was fairly crappy but still better than most things on TV. The latest season is definitely a return to form.

I love all the HBO shows too, all of em are top class and hard hitting. Oz, The Wire and Deadwood are all amazing. Of course The Sopranos too!

Basically don't attack a hedge with a pair of scissors.

Use an electric shaver to shave you down to stubble, then you attack the stubble with the Bic. You don't need your eyes for the back of it, you shave it for a few minutes (to make sure you don't miss a bit) and then you go by touch.

Do it once, and you'll do it a hundred times.

I've just watched the Lost season 5 finale again, trying to make sense of it all. I won't give anything away but i thought it was a bit of a disappointment to be honest.

I've known this guy four years now and he's been hooked on Lost from the getgo. So if this guy's disappointed with the finale, you can take it to the bank that it's gonna absolutely suck!

ShawnRaven · 17-05-2009 7:16pm

Oh yeah.
Nailed the teaching practice btw, All 1's and 2's (1 being good, 2 being satisfactory and 3 being unsatisfactory). The two hour lesson flew in. Only one more of these and i'm done.

So i'm on top of the f*cking world right now, even if i am psychologically drained!

Nobody asks to be mod, (well they do, they just don't get any serious responses back), it's a case of you get asked.

And well... let's just say that as busy as I am, i'm not so busy that i can't make time for PW once or twice a day, and that'll end in a weeks time. So i'm in no hurry to step down. :P

What could you have possibly been disappointed by?

Seriously, this is where the real talent of The Darkness went to, Dan Hawkins with power riffs! Justin Hawkins and Hot Leg can shove their sh*tty album up their ass. Been listening to the Stone Gods album for the guts of two months and i'm still not tired of it.

Love the subtle ripoff of The Who at the very end of it too.

Brow · 18-05-2009 7:27pm

I forgot about them Darkness lads altogether. They arent half bad sounding at all. Must look up more of them.

Im even more surprised to hear Justin has his own thing goin now. This PhD is nothing more than a giant rock that i live under now...

Basically Hawkins came out of rehab and went and told everyone in a press conference that The Darkness were no more.

Unfortunately, his brother Dan and the rest of the band were the last to know!

So Hawkins went on to form Hot Leg, and former Darkness bassist, Richie Edwards took on guitar duty and vocals so they're essentially going just under the name of Stone Gods. Both of which released albums around the same time. So you'll either prefer one or the other really.

grames_bond · 18-05-2009 8:44pm

It's very mixed. There are some fun ones, fast ones, catchy ones, cheesy ballads. Very much like Permission To Land in the way of format, but not in sound, if that makes any sense.

And by someone who has more that one high squeaky pitch tone throughout the entire album.

Angels & Demons; yay or nay? Or should I just wait until Friday when Drag Me To Hell comes out?

Heard it is one of the best films coming out this summer.

Not as "Grrr, the catholics are BAAAD!" but a very good mystery thriller.

The best question i heard about it was this:

"What sorta films are you in to?"

Its a case of personal preference.

If you like dramas then go for it, if you dont, stay well away.
