June 1 – Two weeks and counting

See this poster? It was made by one of the students at my school. The teacher said she needed an art project for a few kids, and did I have any ideas. Well, given the shameless self-promoter that I am, I narcissistically suggested she have a poster contest for my haircut. What you see here is the winner.

Apparently, I am having my hair cut by George Costanza.

Kidding aside, thanks to Mojgan Abolhasani for the artwork. I am having one mounted for permanent display in my class. I would also like to thank the rest of the art students for their participation. I'm glad you had fun mangling my appearance in the pursuit of completion assignments and grades.

Fundraising seems to have stalled at just over $5000. No problem. I am not judging the benefit based on how much money I raise; it’s how much money is raised for the Cancer Society that is the real goal. I am just a conduit. Continued thanks and gratitude go to all those who did or will contribute. I'm still going to go after people, but not until the final week. I am happy with everything that has happened.

With two weeks to go, there’s still plenty of time to:

a) donate to the cause – go to the link at the top or bottom of the page
b) set aside time to come watch the miracle of the “Clip on Comox”

And who knows? If I say my prayers and take my vitamins, maybe I can get my hair cut by Mean Gene.

Right back 'atcha brother.

See you after the weekend.
