I need a son like a hole in my head...

Well, once the ears are pierced, next comes stretching. I’ve gone from 2 regular piercings (one in each ear) to 2 8GA* holes in about 4 months. It’s kind of addicting, to see how far you can stretch it, but my Real Job™ won’t let me keep them in, and the holes can tend to close up. Plus, 8ga is about all i want, it’ll start to be really noticeable when they’re out if I go any bigger.
*8ga is about equivalent in diameter to the cord on your keyboard.

Aw, gee. I thought maybe you were going for .308, for your username. Anyhow, this stretching thing reminded me of the long eared folks on Easter Island.

Wouldn’t it be cool it someone made a little whistle earning that whistles in the wind?

I’m looking for a little affirmation that I’m a cool dad, and all I get is DoperGrief.

Try this on for size: we’re about to leave to take him to his first large venue rock concert, The Pink Floyd Experience in downtown Norfolk.

VunderDad!!

It is not the mutilation, but the sharing, that VunderKind will remember down the line.

Well, don’t know about earrings, but they do have those for tongues.

Just sayin’, is all.

I thought nude female skydivers whistled in freefall…
