My wish is the opposite, I have an epic beard you can have, If you can just get it off my face.
I also have some menswear I won't wear, bring some trash bags.

Oh if we could so trade!!!!

We need to start an exchange program.

That post is dangerously close to keeping this thread on track.

Is the love child a sequin?

[immortal gypsy]

So that's how there made.

How many sequins die each year just for fashion?

[Wynternight]

Someone think of the sequins!!

[JulieBlair]

I think of their shine, impale them, and sew them to my skirt.

You....you fiend!! I hear them, the dreadful silence of the sequins.

Now now Special Agent Wynternight. Let us give Julie a chance to defend herself.

Farmed or wild sequins and just how do you capture them?

[JulieBlair]

I would only use domestic sequins of course.  To reduce the abundance of the wild strains would be so very wrong on so many levels.  There are extensive sequin ranches in China, and they provide the glittering darlings.  I am told that any piercing is done under anesthesia, which is more than I can say for piercings done in ink shops.  I have found that they frequently escape and have wondered if hybrid sequins can be found in the taiga of Alaska.

I've only ever seen wild sequins in Alaska and I've lived and traveled from Anchorage to Barrow and spots in between. There may be hybrid populations in the Interior but I've never seen them.

[immortal gypsy]

Those poor poor defenseless sequins. Can't we create synthetic sequins for clothing and let them all run free

Won't somebody think of the sequins

[JulieBlair]

Oh sequins are anything but defenseless.  They often control the behavior of their hosts particularly the Hollywood and Las Vegas sub varieties.  Indeed the beauties that live on my sneakers often take me to Nordstroms where they look for new companions.  Frequently with success.

I once heard a bush pilot speak of unique populations near and on Round Island, but since flights there are restricted, no direct sightings have been made.  But that conversation was at the Bush Company and I fear the source was unreliable.  He drooled on my leggings.

That's the problem with the large wild northern sequins. Now the Southern Antarctica Sequin is an adorabubble little creature that only comes out at night,  and is very timid.
If you come to Australia you can see small colonies of fairy sequins along the east coast as far up to Sydney Harbor. People flock to an island in Victoria to see these tiny little wonders come up to the sure every night

You can't trust those bush pilots. They're an odd lot and apt to hit the sauce when they get the chance.

Perhaps some day I can tell you of a flight I made in a Super Cub from Togiak to Bethel.  Without 100 mile an hour tape, the wings might have fallen Off.  We had no business flying much less surviving to tell the tale.  God it was fun.

Just please make sure you don't come during the puffin dingo migration season.

These animals have been know to run down unsuspecting tourists in packs, swarm them and leave no remains.

Not much is know about these fantastic native creatures after a few of our native reaserchers disappeared on assigment in '76. Only partial audio and video recordings remain. It was very tragic
