Eyebrow

Today’s Ragtag Daily Prompt: EYEBROW

================================

Every time I look at my eyebrows I wonder what they’re really there for. I don’t look at my eyebrows a lot but more on that in a sec. I’ve read that eyebrows prevent sweat from getting in our eyes but mine don’t seem to do that because when I exercise sweat gets in my eyes. And when I walk in the rain my eyebrows are 100% ineffective at keeping rain out of my eyes.

Thinking of eyebrows makes me think of Frida Kahlo, Joan Crawford, Martin Scorcese, Bert, naturally Mr. Spock and of course Groucho. I also think of Bette Davis in “The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex” (and I only think of that because I recently watched the movie) because she didn’t have any. And I’ll give an honorable mention to Ernest Borgnine.

As to my eyebrows, I have what I consider relatively normal eyebrows for a man. Except for every now and then one strand will grow longer than any of the others. Sometimes it’s the right eyebrow and sometimes it’s the left eyebrow and it’s never the same eyebrow, it’s a random eyebrow strand that will just take off on its own. I think that’s a little weird.

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot – those links to the eight names I mentioned above? Eyebrowsed for those on the internet.
