    Interesting Comment on Facebook

    I changed my profile picture on Facebook to this yesterday:


    One of my friends made the comment "Do you shave your legs when yo wear something like that?"

    What!? My reply, "Why would I shave my legs?"

    Isn't it all to do with air flow and contra-rotating vortices causing knock knees due to pressure differences?

    Regards

    My wife made a simular comment about shaving my legs for the kilt, but for some silly reason she's been trying to get me to do that for years.

    ASU, huh? Do you teach there, or have a child going to school?

    My younger brother is a professor who teaches there. I lived in San Angelo as a child and have fond memories of the place. All my closest kinfolk are buried there too.

    As for the leg-shaving comment, I'm assuming it was a (crude) attempt at teasing. Sometimes people think they have such witty senses of humour.

    I've heard San Angelo pronounced "sangelo". Is that correct or customary? Unfortunately, I've never had the pleasure of being there.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    We always pronounced it "S'nangelo" or just "Angelo".

    It was probably spoken as "S'nangelo" and I heard "Sangelo". That's what I get for having .50 caliber ears.
