The crowd was cheering us; the 15 students 4 dads, 1 mom, 5 teachers (2
were female)and one principal. All agreed to have our hair clipped for a
good cause. The school it's self raised $11,000 for the St. Baldricks
foundation. Its all to fund pediatric cancer research. The kids started it
up by having their tiny heads shaved. The crowed roared SHAVE IT < SHAVE
IT! I my self was in the second round to be clipped and I actually giggled
when the clippers hit my scalp. I felt the wind blow against bare skin and
I knew it was well beyond the point of just a short hair cut. It more of a
shearing. The girls who cut the hair were from a local Sports cut and one
or two made it look like a hootchie show. Their skirts and boots just did
not fit in well at a grade school. .. I have more hair than money right now
and it all went to a good cause...... It just seems every time I cut it it
grows back with more and more gray....At least it grows back!!!
I was asked why I did it and in many ways its too much to number. My
own family was touched with cancer several time and many of my friends are
in the same boat as me. This was the very lease I can do to support a good
cause.
Maybe it was the Sun on my scalp but afterward I felt kinda ill and
needed to nap for about an hour. Could be the lack of hair like Sampson or
just a food bug, but it was kinda weird.... When I close my eyes I still
hear the clippers.......
Peace.....
