Moustache watching...

My new favourite pastime is to spot the best mustaches.  Pakistan is truly exceptional in this.

I don't really get out much, but the other day we went to Murree, which is GORGEOUS by the way, and while we were out, I delighted in all the mustaches on display.

I'd post photos, but I don't want to blind you with the brilliance, so instead, I thought I'd link to these fine specimens.  I'd say Pakistan wins for Style 2, 4, and 5.  Style 3, 11, and 19 look more like the types I see the Germans sporting in the moustache competitions they have.

Movember should really come to Pakistan.  I think they'd win in an international olympic moustache sporting event!

Shel Silverstein

In my inbox this morning there was a notice for "SCOOTERS FOR SALE".  Two cute refurbished black and white vespas.  Darling.

What is funny is that for whatever reason, the title reminded me of this poem from my childhood by Shel Silverstein. What a legend!

FOR SALE

One sister for sale!

One sister for sale!

One crying and spying young sister for sale!

I’m really not kidding,

So who’ll start the bidding?

Do I hear the dollar?

A nickel?

A penny?

Oh, isn’t there, isn’t there, isn’t there any

One kid that will buy this old sister for sale,

This crying and spying young sister for sale?

I probably haven't read it for 20 years or something crazy like that.  Funny how things stick.  It started reminding me of all the classics... BOA CONSTRICTOR... SICK... PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICH...

What a love. Thanks Shel!
