Ok, 31 years that I've had a cleft chin (aka a dimple) and not once until today have I heard the expression "You know what they say - a dimple in the chin, a devil within". Does this really exist or is someone just getting clever?
Not too much exciting stuff going on here. Two big camel spiders craweled their way into the Maintenance Building last night. I witnessed this and they were fascinating to watch. They ran around in circles really really fast until a Marine came up and prevented them from biting anyone any longer.
I got a great carepackage today from my friend Billy. It had a DVD with some nice video of Hawaii in it. It was great to see my friends again. I also got some great flags from the Soldeir's Angels organization, which I immediately hung up. I hung the flags from Ireland and Hawaii (since I'm of Irish decent and since I now consider Hawaii my home).
I'm midway through Season 2 of Desperate Housewives (I know, but it has been a very slow week here and it was the only way to stop me from going crazy).
I have lots of mosquito bites.
And it's very hot.
And that about sums it up right now.

HMMMMMM don't really know what to say about that comment. LOL! I did have a friend that was once told that the devil planted and evil seed in him. But then he soon realized that the people whom told him that were A CRAZY CULT.
So to answer your question sounds like a stupid saying. Moving on. Stay away from those spiders EWE! Sorry I haven't mailed you anything yet you will be getting something soon. But thinking about ALL the good work you are doing DAILY!

Nopers. Never heard that one about a cleft chin before. Who was the Einstein that informed you of this?? :-)
Hey, pay day has come. :-) That care package will be on its way soon. (Victor, that's quite an inventive excuse... :-)
Hang in there!!
Love ya,

Never heard the expression. That's nice that your friend sent a DVD to remind you that you have true friends who love you back home. That's going to save you from insanity better than any TV show.
I heard that a long time ago. I have also repeated the words to others that our blessed to have one just like mine! I am not a devil, I am a Soldiersangel!
Just read that you received my AZ postcard. Should have included some mosquito spray for you :)
Take care!

A dimple on the chin, the devil within.
Gaelic Proverb
Dimple in chin. Devil within.
Folk superstition
Dimples:
A dimple in your cheek,
Many hearts you will seek.
A dimple on your chin,
Many hearts you will win.
*Dimple on the Chin, The devil within* -- Meaning a spirit of fun or mischief in the individual.
Dimples in babies denotes a short tongue so that they will lisp.
It is said that a man with a dimple in his chin will not commit murder, which led criminologists to make a study in facial characteristics in criminals. To to back that up, Police Commissioner Max Tisza wrote a book on the subject. He labored the fact that no man or woman with a dimple on their cheek or chin has ever been known to commit a crime.
Though I had not heard the term, I know several men who have a "dimpled chin", including an ex, and they do have the devil (michief) within!!!
I always wondered what that was on your chin. It's nice to finally have closure.
