Fundraising for childhood cancer research - St. Baldrick's

My daughter is planning to join with other people in our karate school to shave her head for cancer research. If she decides to do this I'll be certain to post pictures and stuff (and hit you all up for donations.)

Because there are several people with long hair planning to participate, our local coordinator has made arrangements with Locks of Love to donate hair long enough for them to use.

Very cool! Two charities for the price of one!

Until I get pictures up, just let me say, my daughter is 13 and has hair to her waist. She's already planning the spiky hair gel thing... no doubt in unnatural colors. She could still panic and back out but we will see. Last time I trimmed her hair she cried for a day. Yes, that was several years ago and she's older now, plus she will have friends doing this with her.

I'll post more as I know it. The head shaving will be in May.

It's very touching when I hear/read about this kind of stuff. I get a warm feeling learning that people are partaking in head shaving for a good cause.

If I have a business and have voluntary associations such that I choose to serve some people and to not serve others, that might make me a jerk and it might lose me business, it might make me smart and it might gain me business, but it's got to be my choice.  If I would normally serve the current disliked minority in my shop except for the fact that if I'm SEEN to serve them by the wrong people I'll have a private campaign against me as those people do everything possible to ruin me by preventing me from doing business physically or by attacking my customers or suppliers, then I am NOT free to make those choices. Does it really make a difference to losing my CHOICE to voluntarily associate if there's a law that says I may not serve "those people" o...

Save the Dresden Files?

This is rather upsetting! How can such a fantastic show be in danger of being canceled? I suppose worse things have happened so I think I will at least send a post card or something to let the network know that I think that the Dresden Files is one of the best shows on television. I was just assuming that there would be a "next season" on this. If it is canceled, I will be desolate! Here's the Sci-fi channel website. There's supposed to be a link to watch whole episodes someplace on there.
