I'm almost certain my dad was a recipient of that speech. As for my parents, I never did anything crazy with my hair (I'd rather sleep late in the morning), but they never hassled my brother over the foot high mohawk had one year: Dad couldn't without being an epic hypocrite; as far as Mom was concerned making himself look like an idiot with his hair was a form of rebellion that wouldn't have any long term problems; and was much better than some of the things he could have done instead. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Three blondes were all applying for the last available position on the Texas Highway Patrol.
The detective conducting the interview looked at the three of them and said, "So y'all want to be cops, huh?" The blondes all nodded.
The detective got up, opened a file drawer, and pulled out a folder. Sitting back down, he opened it, pulled out a picture, and said, "To be a detective, you have to be able to detect. You must be able to notice things such as distinguishing features and oddities like scars and so forth."
So he stuck the photo in the face of the first blonde and withdrew it after about two seconds. "Now," he said, "did you notice any distinguishing features about this man?"
The blonde immediately said, "Yes, I did. He has only one eye!"
The detective shook his head and said, "Of course he has only one eye in this picture! It's a side profile of his face! You're dismissed!"
The first blonde hung her head and walked out of the office.
The detective then turned to the second blonde, stuck the photo in her face for two seconds, pulled it back, and said, "What about you? Notice anything unusual or Outstanding about this man?"
"Yes! He only has one ear!"
The detective put his head in his hands and exclaimed, "Didn't you hear what I just told the other lady? This is side picture profile of the man's face! Of course you can only see one ear! You're excused too!"
The second blonde sheepishly walked out of the office.
The detective turned his attention to the third and last blonde and said, "This is probably a waste of time, but...." He flashed the photo in her face for a couple of seconds and withdrew it, saying, "All right, did you notice anything distinguishing or unusual features about this man?" The blonde said, "I sure did. This man wears contact lenses."
The detective frowned, took another look at the picture, and began looking at some of the papers in the folder. He looked up at the blonde with a puzzled expression and said, "You're absolutely right! His bio says he wears contacts! How in the world could you tell that by looking at his picture?"
The blonde rolled her eyes and said, "Well, Hellooooooooooooo! With only one eye and one ear, he certainly can't wear glasses."

In the bathrooms at work, we have these automatic air freshener things. They are 'industrial grade' and make a loud hissing noise when they do their thing. That scares the crap out of me every time I am sitting and relaxing on the throne.

Chris made a change a few months back, which allows members with certain privileges to see articles that have been 'deleted'. I am also able to see the article even though I do not have Editor privileges and my Author level is pretty puny, so I am not sure what you need in order to see those articles.

I've got even fewer author points that you do; I'm guessing its overall platinum status that is letting us see the trash.

I think I would have objected on the grounds of the article's utter triviality and poor quality. The fact that it takes the piss (quite badly) is neither here nor there.
I think people are too easily offended these days, potato-head.

I always like how white people get more upset over racial stuff than minorities.
I bet there are a lot of Mexicans who would laugh themselves silly over that.
