I Just Have to Know.....

Can someone explain to me why I have to wash behind my ears? No one has looked back there is 55 years. Not since my dad used to pull quarters out from back there.

This comment thread had me checking all the ears in our family today. All present and accounted for and clean.

Thank you, Kelly. I knew there had to be a logical answer to my question. Clean underpants, clean ears. Got it.

By the way, I was a little worried that I was showing a little too much 'hand' in my avatar to be respectable.

Oh sure Jean, it isn't like your avatar screams slut or anything ;)

Maybe your supposed to wash behind your ears in case you are ever in a bad car accident. wouldn't want the paramedics to see that you haven't cleaned back there in 55 years.

Thee, thou---call me anything but the slut from AmishOnLine.

Who told you that you HAD to wash behind your ears?

But if one does not - and tells people about it- they will assume one does not wash one's hair either. I always assume that when one washes one's hair, one can pretty much assume one has washed behind one's ears - unless one is bald.

I don't know a thing about cleaning or maintaining bald heads. Might be good article idea but I'm not writing it. Someone else can take that topic. From the look of some bald heads, I think they use a special polish.

When I switched from "you" to "one" did I sound more Amish? Or should I have said "thee" and "thou."? I am really out of the Amish loop and need help.

I knew a girl who brushed her teeth in the shower in the morning to save time. I always found it odd, & could never really see how it saved time, but you're welcome to try it out.

[Jean Riva]

Oh, my God! Giant zits and fungi. I guess I'll have to find another way to save time in the shower.

Do you really want to know. I could tell you about gross things that enjoy that particular area of the body. :-)

For instance, the giant zit randy speaks of was probably born of staph. Staph prefers the nose, but it can hang out back there too. Fungi enjoy the area too--the darkness and all. Don't get me started. lol.

[theBarefoot]

Well the giant zit I had there a few months ago would argue with you about that.
