1. Get some spray paint....
Or contacts might be better....

But hey, your eyes are pretty as they are now.

22. No, it doesn't hurt if you put down a later of capsaicin first.
That'll protect the eye from the spray paint, but also keep the paint on the eye.

3. I have brown eyes and I've always wished I had blue eyes.
Or green eyes even. Brown eyes sometimes make it hard for people to look into your eyes. Mine appear almost as black dots with no real difference between the pupils and irises. Lots of times, I think it messes with people's heads.

In any case, if you have lighter color eyes, you can wear contacts that change the color for you. That would work.

59. Yeah, like no one ever wrote a song about a pretty young lady with blue eyes!
Edited on Sat Sep-08-07 03:08 AM by dicksteele
All the songs about "eyes" are talking about grumpy
old middle-aged beer-gutted curmudgeons like me, while
you lovely young females just keep getting ignored by
the songwriters guild, century after century!

Sarcasm aside: I think you know damn well that your eyes
are quite striking, and you're just fishing for compliments.

Pull the other one, kiddo- it's got bells on! :P

6. My freshman year of college, one of the male a capella groups
came by and performed that song for all the girls on my hall, except they used different eye colors (started off with "brown-eyed girl," then moved to "blue-eyed girl," "green-eyed girl," "hazel-eyed girl," etc.). I guess it was so those of us with non-brown eyes wouldn't feel left out. :)

16. Brown is boring. Green, blue, and gray are so much cooler.
Easier to accessorize with color outfits too. :D

28. I've known many musicians who consider Van Morrison's
"Astral Weeks" to be the perfect album, and / or "Moondance" to be the perfect song.

There's some magic that that sawed-off, drunken Irishman has, no doubt about it.

(PS: I can get away with the "sawed-off drunken Irishman" remark, because that's essentially what my mother's family consisted of.)
