Title: gash on my head
Post by: djones on February 21, 2014, 06:45:36 PM

 I work construction and the other day I caught my head on a 2x4...so now I have had a giant scrape/cut on my head and can't shave..just keeping it clipper cut..which even though I love the smooth feeling I have found the clippers a much easier routine..I really think hair does act as antenna because I hit my head way more often being sly lol..

LOL!  I think you're right.  Not too long after shaving my head (which was many years ago) I walked into a tree branch while mowing the lawn.   Since I was looking down at the time I had a nice sized scratch on the front part of the top of my head.  I had to shave around it. Even though the scratch was on a part of my head where my hair had thinned, a few stubbly hairs started to make their way through that area. 

Still manage to bang my head from time to time while getting into cars.  I have to believe that, as you said, hair acts as feeler antennae

I hit my head all the time, I've been lucky enough that have not done any real damage yet.

Nothing, absolutely nothing is more interesting on a man than a scar. Drop the 2 X 4 then pause, smile as if recapturing a memory, laugh a bit and say, "Oh yeah, that, funny story. I was in a hurry to jam on my helmet at the bobsled run at St. Moritz and really gave it a whack with a metal snap. (pause) There was a sodding plume of blood all the way down the course....Good time, good times." Then shut up.

I wish I had a scar. It sounds weird. But I think scars make the story. You know someone is going to ask eventually. I would be mad not being able to shave.

And on a story side... my friend was born with his legs not working. When people ask him, he invents a story on the spot... war vet... car accident... my favorite was his crazy x stabbed him in the back.

But anyways. It is winter. keep it short. when it warms up, come back to the dark side.
