I just shaved my head. Ask me about my lacerations!

[short bus president]

Or the weather. Or clinical research ethics. But only one of those 3 topics.

[SweetZombieJesus]

1. Did you shave your eyebrows and shit like Geldof in The Wall?

Sometimes I get the urge to do that.

[short bus president]

2. no

one of my eyebrows hurts a wee bit much to consider shaving it right now. And I'd look f*cked up with just one. But I did shave a nice, clean line on both sides where my bald meets my beard.

3. People will think you're a NeoNutcase!

Put some hot sauce on it and the face you'll make will look just like Dick Cheney!

5. the sunburn

from last week was bad enough. No hot sauce, thanks.

And only people who don't get to know me might think I'm a nay-zee. Moral of the story? "GET TA KNOW ME!" </lovitz>

6. It's ok!

People mistake for a bigfoot all the time, but I don't believe in haircuts of any kind for me! Gawd told me "NO MORE HAIRCUTS!"

4. How do you do the back?

How much blood was there? Did the weather play a role in your decision? If you really knew someone deserved a second chance at life, would you move them from the control group into the experimental group?

7. you were only supposed to pick one topic

but since you otherwise played by the rules, I'll answer your additional queries at no charge.

There was no blood. Brand new mach3 blade, a little gillete gel. I shave by braille all over my head. Feel with the razorless hand for stubble, and whack it as I find it. I am razor-hand amphibious. </shackleford>

The weather does not influence my head shaving choices.

In a blinded trial, the researcher does not know to which group a particular subject is assigned. So if a researcher knew enough to seek to manipulate a particular subject's group assignment, an ethical violation would already have occurred.

8. I'm lost what was it you wanted to see me lick?

:9 :evilgrin:

[short bus president]

10. Hmmmm...

Given the limits of this thread, your choices would appear to be clinical research ethics (believe me, it takes a lot of lickin' and keeps on kickin'), the weather (which would be easier to lick when it snows), and my scalp (which has never been licked and likely never will be - however I do like to have it lovingly scratched. ;-) ). Choice is yours, dear. :P

[prolesunited]

13. Whoops!

Didn't read very carefully. Thanks for indulging me anyway. :hi:

[foxy]

14. And what was that that went thru your mind?

just wondering :evilgrin:

[Mandate My Ass]

9. Did these lacerations just happen to occur

while you were flexing your eustachian tubes and thereby causing a spasm in the occipitofrontalis muscle as the blade was scraping across its length from eyebrows to the back of the head?

[short bus president]

11. No, ma'am

and SSSSHHHHHH! I only flex my eustacian tubes for you! Now everybody's gonna want some...

:P

[patdem]

12. Do all the tissue stop bleeding placements look more like

someone has transplanted plugs of kleenex vs hair? This is priceless....what a picture you have conjured up!...

Thanks for the image and the laugh!!! :bounce: :hi: :party:

[short bus president]

15. Actually, I didn't bleed

But 3 days ago when I was much more scalpburned, I cut the hell out of myself. I just rinsed it under the shower for awhile, let it clot, and then washed it thoroughly. I don't own a hand mirror, and couldn't see around to the back of my head to properly place any tissue. It healed nice and smooth for today's raking.
