From Slimbolala:
RSfMS(wC):* Heavenly Hairdos
Are their combovers in heaven? Do all angels have full heads of hair? Is your heavenly hairdo your hairdo from when you die or from some other juncture in life? (Or does your hair transcend individuality and become one with all hair? Do such earthly styling considerations cease to exist in the manifold stylistic glory of the afterlife?) What does Thomas Aquinas say?
* Random Stuff from My Sketchbook (with Commentary)
Is this brilliant, or what? And posted on Aquinas' feast day, too!
Slimbolala's profile tells us only that he is from New Orleans. That's recommendation enough for me!
Hey! I thought you got your body restored to its original vigor in Heaven! Presumably that would include a full head of hair. I don't want to look at combovers in Heaven!
ReplyDeleteAs if I'm going to Heaven, anyway...
;)
As I always say to the hair-challenged guys, "If you're bald, just be bald." Combovers are the worst.

PJ, you could surprise everyone, including yourself. As for me, I wouldn't be at all surprised to see you there.
My body better be restored! I'm going to be cremated so the heavenly Restorer will have some work to do. And I expect to look better than I ever did! That's my Idea of Heaven!
ReplyDeleteMimi, is there anyone you'd be surprised to see there?

ReplyDeleteA few, Susan, but that doesn't mean they won't be there.
I, too, want a beautifully restored body, one that's even better than the original.
This is the deal with being a universalist---I'm sure EVERYONE will be there eventually. Which keeps me from getting too smug about my projected place...
ReplyDeleteI applaud Slimbolala's stand against combovers...but I'd feel better about him if he learned the difference between their/there.
(My time in Purgatory will no doubt be spent reflecting on my nitpicking of other people's spelling/grammar...)

ReplyDeleteDoxy, Doxy, Doxy, Doxy! Ya gonna burn for that. Maybe Slimbolala will read your comment and mend his ways.
I guess I'm sort of a universalist myself. Anyway, I don't get to say, and I'm glad the burden for judging is not mine.
Ha! I love Slimbolala. He stopped by my blog, this morning.
ReplyDeleteWho let that slip through? I'm firing my whole editorial staff! (In my defense, though, I usually get that one right. But small children, not enough sleep... Besides, it's Mardi Gras. I've got to get all my grammatical sinning done before Lent.)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post and the kind words. (And I didn't even know it was Aquinas' feast day. Strange forces at work...)
Slimbolala, excuses, excuses. They don't get you far around here. These folks are not shy about calling everyone to account.
ReplyDeleteAs for your posting serendipitously on Aquinas on his feast day, it's karma. What would Tom say about karma?

ReplyDeleteSlimbolala---been there, done that with the small kids/no sleep thing.
I think I should give up editing for Lent...

ReplyDeleteDoxy, that's gonna hurt.
It's probably not right to make my children starve for *my* Lenten vow, is it?
ReplyDeleteAlthough they *are* always carping about how I never take time off. (They do not seem to understand that, if Mom isn't working, she isn't getting paid.)
