Oh - and we spell it "theater" not "theatre".
colour, favourite and theatre are also the Canadian way of spelling those words. My pet peeve is that the US spell checker in my email program always tells me that they are wrong lol

I think my husband looks nice with his gray hair gone and 10 years younger (it did look kind of strange the first few days being all one color). He got it done at Haircuttery and they say it is just temporary so he will be gray again in a few months.

So is it more of a stigma for a middle aged man to dye his gray hair brown than a woman?

(He dyed it because he is going to look for a new job and wanted to look younger so he would be able to fight age discrimination)
We just had a very popular local tv personality here retire, and he said that he will not stop dying his hair or his beard after retirement. I thought that was pretty cool. I think it's great that there are people that march to their own drum beat. People make comments because they like to look for reasons to criticize and make fun of others. And it shouldn't matter what his reason for doing it. That's his personal business and no one else's.
