If you asked your “average” CEO of a Fortune 500 company, if he/she would rather be short or bald. The majority of the answers would be “I would rather grow a few inches” (they are not talking hair length). There you have it. Its is […]
Did you know that pharmaceutical companies spend more than $200 million a year on trying to cure baldness. In fact I have also heard rumblings that figure is upwards of $300 million. Honestly, I think that amount is way too high. We do not die from baldness. This is about […]
I am always looking for simple reasons to explain why some people are bald, and some aren’t. I know that genetics are involved. But there are lots of other reasons to. This morning, I came across an article by Darren Wong in the Los Angeles Chronicle, which gives fairly simple explanations - […]
I am cleaning my house today….giving everything a real good clean - before the repair people come in a day or two. I have been going through everything, and throwing things out. I just found 3 phone books from 2007 (city directory and yellow pages x 2) and on each one, they have […]
During the 1890’s Victorian doctor Thomas Allinsin had some very controversial essays on healthy living published. I believe his opinions would still be called controversial today (or perhaps there is a better word out there - feel free to suggest some). His diaries have just now been republished, and The Independent has published […]
When I was a kid, I had really long hair….I was the Cher (of Sonny and Cher fame) of my kindergarten class. It was that long, and that beautiful. When I would go to the hair salon, and they would ask - how I would like it cut -I would always say “please […]

Regardless, I hope it adds something to the conversation.
Here is my […]
Ran across a question over at Balding Blog that made me smile…
What is a Flowbee?
Ah, now that’s a blast from the past. I never used one, so I can’t blame my hair loss on it. Though I recall jokes about the Flowbee being responsible for such.
I remember the Wayne’s World knock off… The Suck-n-Cut.
“It sucks […]
OK, so this comes from a survey conducted by Prostate Cancer Charity, a UK organization, as part of its annual Prostate Cancer Awareness Week. While they were looking at how few men worried about prostate cancer - 13% by the way - I was more interested in the even smaller percentage of men who said […]
“I request that during that month (March) our people rededicate themselves to the splendid aims and activities of the Red Cross.” –President Franklin D. Roosevelt, first Presidential Proclamation of March as Red Cross Month, 1943 (link)
March is Red Cross Month, and we all have a love-fear relationship with them. We love the Red Cross: they […]
