TexasToest: I started losing my hair at 26. That's when things started happening for me ;)

Groucho:  I started getting silver hairs when I was 11.  Now, it looks all silver to me, but my aunt told me the other day it's still blonde.  I happen to think bald and balding men are extremely attractive.  I mean, look at this list: 

Jimi Hendrix - Was Sy Sperling's (Hair Club for Men) first celebrity client.

Jimmy Buffett - singer/song writer

Alan Jackson - is known to never take his trademark cowboy hat off for any occasion. The reason behind this is he has been bald since college and hides this by keeping what little hair he has left long.

Les Paul

Paul Shaffer - composer/bandleader/multi-instrumentalist, bald since the early-1990's

Ringo Starr - former drummer of the Beatles and present-day solo artist

 Michael Balzary - musician in Red Hot Chili Peppers

TexasToest:

Sinead O'Connor

awesome:  Hahaha!  Point well taken.  But, I tried to pick naturally bald people, and there weren't any women on that list.

TexasToest: I'm in good company :)

Groucho:  Yes, you are in the company of some very talented people.  See???????

Nirvana: I kinda look like Kelly Slater.

Nirvana:  Cool site.  Thanks. 

Where is everybody?  I see The San Francisco Chronicle panned A Prairie Home Companion.  Are we in mourning?  I love that show on radio, and listen enraptured each Saturday.  But, at one time, I don't remember when, they tried putting it on TV.  In my opinion, it flopped then too.  So, the lack of enthusiasm for the movie by the critics doesn't surprise me.  

I guess for me, the show is the music.  There have been so many talented musicians on that show.  I always look forward to hearing Dallas' own expats (to Virginia) Robin and Linda Williams.  Tish Hinojosa has been there telling her own stories in music.  I remember once there was a balalaika troup on.  That was a thrill.  I think the movie would have been much better received had they had more musicians in it. 

The Chronicle spoke of Keillor singing 10 songs in the movie.   He can sing, but his singing isn't his formost talent.  Garrison Keillor's monologues are his biggest contribution to the radio show.  Keillor is such a wonderful story teller, that on the radio the magic is that the listener enjoys such vivid mental visuals of the stories that become a personal voyage because (s)he is getting those visions out of her/his own imagination.  Those images don't come across too well on the screen, because the audience doesn't use its imagination when listening to the tales.  They are watching the man standing on a stage spewing words.  On radio, I think Keillor is a musician in his own rite, even though he doesn't convert his thoughts into music.  His stories are melodic in the telling.  It's almost like the difference between reading a
book, and seeing the movie.  The music, and the monologues belong together.

Any other opinions?
