Put yer old thinking cap on Smoochie, and you'll find maybe the reason we have eyebrows AND eyelashes is to protect the eyes from dirt, etc...Falling dandruff, etc, etc...At least that's what seems to be in my fading memory banks... Too bad Buzz hasn't finished his CD on calling in rain or repelling it, or you wouldn't have to put up with weather extremes any longer. I'm not kidding..the boy has a request for a weather controlling CD and they are working on it...

Never thought of that Jeannie T. I used to tell the children when I was teaching school that their nose acted like a filter & that's where all the dirt & dust was filtered from going into their lungs. We never discussed eyebrows. Happy Birthday to Buzz!! If he comes up with some good ideas on how to control weather...especially the rain...you are set for life!! We are suppose to be going through our Monsoon up here in the mountains of AZ...but for one reason or another, everything has stopped up here. Maybe we need him up here to do a rain dance with some of our Indians. ~J in AZ ----- Original Message ----- From: <askgranny@juno.com> To: <southern-chat@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2010 10:36 PM Subject: Re: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] eyebrows > Put yer old thinking cap on Smoochie, and you'll find maybe the reason we > have eyebrows AND eyelashes is to protect the eyes from dirt, > etc...Falling dandruff, etc, etc...At least that's what seems to be in my > fading memory banks... > > Too bad Buzz hasn't finished his CD on calling in rain or repelling it, > or you wouldn't have to put up with weather extremes any longer.
