Is there anyone on this planet who is somewhat connected to their computer who doesn’t know about social networking sites? I can not go anywhere without running into someone talking about Facebook, MySpace or Twitter. Now the baldies have their own networking site, at Alopecia World. It is a brand new social networking site for people with alopecia, and those who love them.
The site has only been around for a week or so, and already has 200 members. It certainly is growing fast. There are forums, and interesting articles. You can meet new people …read more

Sorry for the absence, over the last couple of weeks. I have been preoccupied with some health issues, and some tests surrounding those issues. I am putting them behind me now – and am back at baldiness.
Expect regular updates from now on.
Back to work!

It’s nearing the end of the week, which means I am running out of steam. It’s been a very big blogging day for me. On such occasions, I like to go over my stats with a “fine tooth comb” – ha I am sooo punny!
Anyway, here are some of the more “interesting” key word searches, that have led you to Baldiness

unibrow muppet – his name is Bert – and well he does have a unibrow.
bald thumbs – aren’t all thumbs bald – wouldn’t hair just get in the way?
castration stops baldness – is someone seriously thinking about trying …read more

Starting tomorrow (Jan 28, 2008) you will be able to purchase medicinal marijuana through a vending machine (in the Los Angeles area). Well, you can purchase it, only if you have a prescription from your doctor, and then go through the process of getting finger printed, and getting a prepaid credit card- that holds all of your pertinent information (including how much, and the certain strain you require). You will be able to buy up to 1 oz per week!
OK I know this sounds cutting edge and impressive, but what else is in the works are vending machines …read more

I have already started failing at my New Years Resolutions. My major resolution was to blog regularly both here and at CFS Squared. My intentions have been really good, but I have been plagued with computer problems, and I have developed a nasty little habit, of falling asleep at 7:30 pm (this sometimes happens when you live with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome). Hopefully, I have gotten myself back on track, and my regular posting will begin again starting…..NOW!
Stay tuned for more exciting blog posts. I hear a lot has happened in the week that I have been …read more

OK, I admit it- it’s a slow day in the world of me relating to bald worthy news.  I thought I would fill the time, by showing you how some readers found their way to baldiness – during this first week of 2008.  This is not how everyone found their way, just some random searches that stuck out in my mind.

 Hair cut for bald men – there is such a thing.  It’s called “Going NBA”
Mustache growing supplement – why would anyone want to take such a thing? – Enlighten me, please
Are hairy people not as evolved – I spit out …read more

Seth over at Battle Against Bald is running a poll: What is your favorite resource for hair loss and hair restoration? While Baldiness is not listed, I am claiming all 23.5% of the “Other” votes as my own. That puts me right up there with Wikipedia!
GO ME!
Now, you go and vote… and remember: A vote for “Other” is a vote for Baldiness!

Hey you MySpacers! Go pass on some kudos and encouragement to Christie who has tossed her wig aside. She made the leap back in April, but it just popped into my RSS Reader today.
Telling everyone is absolutely terrifying, but I know it’s time. I have fantasized about how to tell “the world” for many years. I guess I’ve just gotten increasingly dissatisfied with my “cover-up”. I’m done. I am going to do it afraid…do it despite the terror of it.
Way to go, Christie!

Skip2468 over at Keep Smiling has been asked the question: “Are you bald?” Well, clearly those asking haven’t actually seen Skip, because one gander at the photo he posts provides ample evidence that he in not by any definition bald.
He may not be bald, but Skip’s got a great attitude about life. Sounds like he’s made the best of his first 77 years; here’s hoping he gets many more!

Battle Against Bald has a new blogger. Seth has seen his Bosley procedure through as fas as it goes, and he’s handed off the reigns to Torrence, who is approximately 8 weeks post-treatment.
Torrance is 32, a former professional basketball player, and currently works in media making films, commercials, and television. Head over and give him a warm welcome.
