Great thread idea, Terri B!
I was in a serious bicycle crash in a sprint finish of a race in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. I fractured my skull (which might explain everything) and the damage from the crash plus the surgery left me with a swastika shaped scar on the back of my head. Someone asked me if I was going to shave my head in support of Colleen losing her hair due to chemo. I said I wasn't going to because I didn't want all the skinheads to try and be my friends. Yes folks, I really am that shallow.
