The Return of Interesting thoughts.

1.Why do croutons come in airtight packages?  Aren't they just stale bread to begin with?

2.If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled?

3.Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist, but a person who

drives a race car is not called a racist?

4.If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the

others here for?

5.If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, then doesn't it follow

that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged,

models deposed, tree surgeons debarked, and dry cleaners depressed?

6.Do Lipton Tea employees take 'coffee breaks?'

7.What hair colour do they put on the driver's licenses of bald men?

8.Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we

supposed to do, write to them? Why don't they just put their pictures on

the postage stamps so the mailmen can look for them while they deliver

the mail?

9.Is it true that you never really learn to swear until you learn to

drive?

10.Why, Why, Why do we press harder on the remote control when we know the batteries are getting weak?

11.Why do banks charge a fee due to insufficient funds; when they already

know you're broke?

12.Why is it that when someone tells you that there are one billion stars

in the universe you believe them, but if they tell you there is wet

paint you have to touch it to check?

My license says brown hair, though it hasn't been that color in years. 😣 ☹ 😉

Does anyone know answer to number 7?

According to AI:

When someone is bald, the hair color listed on their driver's license typically follows one of a few paths, depending on the state's specific DMV regulations:
  • "Bald" as a Category: Many jurisdictions include "Bald" as a standard option in their hair color drop-down menus. Official systems, such as the NCIC Hair Color Codes, use the abbreviation "BLD" specifically for bald individuals.
  • Original Natural Color: Some men continue to list their natural hair color (e.g., Brown, Black) even after losing it. This is often the case if they were not bald when they first received their license and the information was simply carried over during renewals.
  • Eyebrow Color: If a driver is required to provide a current color but has no hair on top, they are often advised to use the color of their eyebrows or other remaining facial/body hair.
  • "None" or "Unknown": In some jurisdictions, or for specific conditions like alopecia, the field may be filled as "NONE", "N/A", or use the code "XXX", which stands for "Unknown or Completely Bald".
Notably, some modern licenses (such as those in Ohio or parts of Australia) have removed the hair color field entirely, as it is considered a non-permanent physical characteristic that can be easily changed.
 
These Reddit discussions compile user accounts detailing how bald men's hair color is recorded on driver's licenses:

@ed-davis Don't most States allow the Licensed Driver to "fill in"  their own pertinent information?    I suspect anyone without hair could simply write in any color they wanted; don't most people lie about their height & weight anyway?     For color of hair,  I'd bet $1,000 most women never write, "Gray."    😏 🤨
