For those of you who missed the Crazy Raccoon Lady locomotive in the train thread. :-)

Not to mention colorful and double headed. :)

I was only telling Vic to smile (or suggesting that he smile) because he was taking a photo. It's common to suggest that someone smile when
a photo is being taken. And you don't have to make a huge effort. Just
smile enough so that the corners of your mouth are higher than the
middle. You also don't have to hold it "for long." Only for a few
seconds.

I hate to smile on command...

A Study in Smiling by Suzie-Q

(Please ignore my zits. Sixty-two years old and I'm still
getting stinkin' zits!)

Note that I've only raised the corner of my lips a tiny,
tiny amount.



Also, one usually looks better when smiling. More
attractive.

It's a circulation problem I suspect, I think when I feel like My head is heavy, is when My head may not be getting enough blood, convincing the Doctor is another story, it explains why I don't feel like doing much too, but right now I'm hobbled, why? Driving takes gasoline and I'm down to about an 1/8 tank and I'm flat broke right now, so I don't dare go beyond the Post Office, since that is 2.5 miles away, I can do that.. Right now I'm waiting for FedEx, TWC is sending Me some replacement tv equipment.

Eric also hates to smile on command. In most of the photos we have of him, he looks like he was weaned on an unripe persimmon!!!

Stop telling Vic to smile!!!

Some of us have faces that look frowny when they're actually just relaxed or neutral. I can put an enormous effort into smiling and it hardly looks like anything, but it uses so much energy I can't hold it for long.

I get really sick and tired of people telling me to smile, and I bet Vic does too.


I, too, have a resting frowny face.

Same here. And I tend to smile as much with my eyebrows as with my mouth. Although with the beard, sometimes it's hard to tell.

But to most people, others DO look more appealing when they are smiling.

I can't say that I am sick and tired or really irritated by it, but I get that bit from time to time as well.
My absolutely A-OK, neutral, normal facial expression is taken by some as being one of sadness. And a few that care try to cheer me up...which usually results in me raising my eyebrows, but nothing approaching what they would consider a smile...LOL.
It's just the face that God gave me.

A farmer brings his dog to the vet for a checkup. He puts the dog on the exam table. The vet checks the dog and tells the farmer that the dog is dead. The farmer says naw can't be dead. So the vet checks again. He tells the farmer that the dog is dead. The farmer says that it can't be dead. And that the dog is a real deep sleeper. The vet says ok. I have one more test. He goes in the back and brings out a cat. He rubs the cat all over the dog and nothing happens. The farmer then says dang the dog is really dead. Now what do I owe you. The vet says $525.00. $525.00 DALLORS!! exclaims the farmer. Please explain why it is so much. The vet says. $25 dollars for the office visit and $500.00 for the CAT Scan.
