To baldly go where lots of men have gone before
I have my hair alright. I suppose I could delude myself that it's always gonna be there, but only under the influence of REALLY powerful hallucinogens like LSD, mescaline, or Keith Richards. The truth, however, is in plain sight. I'm losing hair like ballot papers from Florida.

Historically, hair loss has been a bad omen. Napoleon started noticing how his hair was starting to recede when he was in Waterloo, got distracted from his brilliant campaign, and... we all know what happened after that. Vincent Van Gogh cut off his ear to stop people from noticing his bald spot. It worked too. We don't remember him as the bald painter from the Renaissance, do we? And it's not entirely because he was NOT from the Renaissance.

    I heard bald men are perceivced to be more attractive....which makes your other current phobia (marriage...eeeeeks!!) quite easy.

    Ok, not the marriage, that was exaggerating it a bit. At least you can have a girl who falls for your "bald pate" look and still says "Cooool!"

    Well, Bharath, ol bud... you heard wrong. In any case, I have no interest in women who take interest in bald men. No offense to women with bad taste, but bald ain't the beautiful.

    BTW, Bharath, you've been a good friend. And we've had fun times together. But if you bring up the topic of my marriage one more time, I'm going to stick the pointy end of a rusted fork in your left eyeball.

    Again, no offense meant to women with bad taste.
