Etheuorque (Now featuring a mustache!)

Click here to see an old post with a picture of me with horrible facial hair.

Who would like the challenge of defining my newly minted word? It's the title; I made it up. Yes, I'm silly and have no life, but help me anyway.


In other snooze, I did manage to sneak up to the hills on the weekend, during a break in the bad weather. I tried to excavate what I was talking about in the previous post and it wasn't even a "Geraldo" moment. What I thought was the entrance was a pocket, but through more digging found large slabs of rock collapsed on top of each other. I did find a bunch of ash, possibly from an old miner's campfire. So, I determined that it was foolish and way too dangerous for me, all by myself, to proceed. There is a tunnel back in the mountain some distance further, but it is beyond reasonable effort and risk to uncover. This is fine, however. This is just tunnel #1 of 4 in this camp--the one in the picture found here. I will have to post pics later. I'm hoping to at least have something interesting, besides dirt, to show.

Before I can define this word, I need to know how it's pronounced phonetically.

Sorry about the Geraldo thing not working out. Maybe you can grow a mustache instead? ;)

I like Christielli's idea about growing a mustache. Then post a picture of that!

Look forward to hearing about more adventures.

Christielli~ I have no idea how it is pronounced. I don't look good with a 'stache only.

Rawbean~ Why aren't women interested in ear hair? Fortunately, I cannot grow that.

Please never grow facial hair.

I'm glad you didn't take any chances out there exploring.

I've spent 10 minutes here trying to think of the definition of that word, but I can't come up with anything. I thought I was wittier than this. How disappointing.

Jules said...

Grunty... again.. please never grow facial hair... ;p

Jules~ I actually don't look too bad with a Van Dyke or a goatee. I guess I'm just not a 'stache only guy. Anyway, I know you like your men to be just a bit more on the gay side, er, metro:P

Jules said...

I like my men to keep themselves looking trim and proper, yes. Not necessarily metro but clean and nice looking. I still have a photo or two of you from 5 years ago looking all handsome and clean shaven. **thumbs up**

The Grunt said...

Ah, yes! Five years ago...when I was still young and pretty (I still had my thick head of hair in its original, pre-chemo form/color). I think the operative phrase that I cling onto now is "distinguished looking".

Jules said...

Distinguished gets thumbs up as well, as long as it doesn't involve facial hair. ;p
