Indian grocer has world's longest ear hair

[Mugu]

Officially recognised by Guinness in 2003 as having the longest ear hair in the world, Mr Baijpai has grown his hair from five inches (13.2cm) to their current length.

Considered by Mr Baijpai, 58, to be symbol of luck and prosperity, his ear-hair has been growing since he was 18 and more importantly has never been cut.

Maintained by a specially prepared blend of herbal shampoo, Mr Baijpai has so far resisted the pleas of his long suffering wife to cut it off.

"She has always been asking me to cut my ear-hair, but since the official record was confirmed by Guinness, she has allowed me to keep it because it is a source of pride to me," says Mr Baijpai a resident of the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.

14. LOL! I told my Uncle that last week, we are swapping apartments

and helping each other out in the move. I told him, "Don't go in the crawl space until I had a chance to go through it. There is stuff in there that a heterosexual man doesn't need to see." Because,"What has been seen cannot be unseen!"

15. I hope he listens....

One of my friends, after coming out to his parents, got the dreaded question from his dad- In a nutshell, "are you the man or the woman?" (and we all know what that means). My friend warned him, "Dad, I'll give you that answer, because I have nothing to hide. But are you SURE that this is information you need and want to know? Because once you know, it'll be with you always..." His dad answered the affirmative, and got his answer. An hour or so later, his dad said, "You were right- I should have never asked."

:rofl:
