Was on my way gradually to the NOTHING but around 200 lbs I now weigh but a lot of that is muscle in my legs, arms, and back. Walked a lot around the hills of Belmont, CA when I lived there in 1984-1986. Very pretty place with low hills of the San Francisco Peninsula.

I could lose 35 lbs myself but would not want to do it the way of an illness. I do hope you will recovery quickly Spoiler.
I did weigh NOTHING but 135 lbs but that was at birth.

NOTHING but funny.

On a serious note, a raccoon tested positive for rabies near Oxford. NOTHINGs might want to keep a close eye on their pets.

I gave up on NOTHING but the local Barbershops other than an occasional stop at the one on 441 next to where the Par Car Dealership was. The place is so busy because its an old school Barbershop with skilled mechanics at cheap prices and the location is easy to get in and out of.

I still prefer to buzz my head with a zero fitting and then shave it for the Uncle Fester look. Streamlined and less wind resistant. If there isn't a line then I like the Barbershop I described. Compared to what the charges were up north $20 or $25 is proper for all the work they put into Buzzing and Shaving on me in the shop down here.

It's nice to make them happy. They work hard and put up with a lot of Garbage. Most of the guys in there should be half price. You can guess why!

I stated losing my hair in my third year of law school. It would be all over my study notes in my dorm room and my roommate then was a Korean MD who already had a Ph. D from a Korean university along with his MD. He had been in the Korean army. He was at the U of MN getting a Ph.D in bio-chemistry and was studying the effects of stress on the body by doing experiments on rats. While my hair was falling out from stress and not for NOTHING.

He is in the same volume of Marquis Who's Who in the World as I am in-- the 12th Edition from 1995.

482, 748.
481, 839.

Friday to Saturday, December 7, 2019 8:55 AM 24 hour tally from December 6, 2019--

909.

Bought a Series Q Weber grill from the local Ace Hardware and was assisted by a neighbor in the purchase. She works there. It was $224 and a few cents which I rounded up to $225 through a donation to someone or another. I had a $5 coupon so knocked it down to about $220. NOTHING but felt good buying a new one as the lighter on the gas valve had broken and I would have to light it with a match which sometimes was quite dangerous. I liked the price for some reason or another.

Anthony Hopkins is NOTHING but on the opposite page. I might have written him at his agent's address back then. I used this Marquis Who's Who in the World volume and other such books for ideas about whom to write via snail mail. And many other Vanity Press volumes that I got.

Never purchased Marquis Who's Who in America as most of the Reference sections of local libraries had copies of these I could use. I was listed in a number of these Editions in the 1990s.

I guess these days it is NOTHING but normal to buzz and shave your head!

I would say more like NOTHING other than a Bald Chris Farley the
one-man party.

You sure are a true blue friend barefoot. I can always count on you. Maybe the mouth of Bruce Willis but the look doesn't match to good. Not what I remember anyway!

I'm surprised nobody put together Haircuts & Lobster! It sounds like a new Seafood Haircut Style!

I’m here, but no cheese updates. Nothing has changed, other than my tongue is no longer swollen up.

All food still tastes like the glue did in my two or three years in Kindergarten class

I’m losing 3/4 lb a day and am down over a 100 from a year ago. I had been on a diet anyhow and had lost 60 lbs before all this had begun. Now losing another 45, I am rewriting my wish list to the fat man to prioritize some skinny jeans for me...

ATTA BOY SPOILER. Now you can't be The President of the Dickie Do Club! Nothing but a rough way to lose the weight but that is just wonderful if you can find the strength to keep it off. I had lost 70 in the first 2 years when we arrived here but you can guess, I found most of it. Happy For You Big Time!
