Teachers aren't supposedto be cool I guess....

I think it's pretty much the norm now. That is people accepting or expressing their individuality. I think it's great. I'm 57 and got the piercing when I was 55. People said I was experiencing a mid-life crisis. Bwahahahahaha! Mid-life my ass. I just had a hankering to get a hole punched through my ear lobe and decided to get a nice piece of jewlery to plug it up once I came to my senses.

When my oldest was 17, he got an ear pierced and wore a small silver piece of jewelry in it - not in the lobe but higher up. Interestingly, all the jocks were doing it.

Me, I'm fabulous enough without extra jewelry . . . . except for a pinky ring, I'm really thinking I need one of those, gotta have the bling!

Do it! Nothing gaudy, just a very tasteful post. I wear my pinky ring too. Cuz I'm so fat that my wedding band fits better there. I'm a mess.

Sailors since antiquity wore them too. If you fell overboard you'd always have a couple gold pieces to pay the boatman to guide your soul to the afterlife
