Some of you who know me may possibly realize that I am starting to have a receding hairline and a very slight thinning of my hair. Since I am very vain, especially about my coiffure, I am considering an offer. Alley Cat has graciously offered to be an organ donor. He is going to donate a portion of his skin so I can have it grafted to the top of my head. I do NOT want to use a piece of his scalp, since I want my hair to look natural. I am thinking the palms of his hands would also be toooo hairy. I am thinking a piece of skin from the inside of his ear. Maybe the soles of his feet. I do not want to go overboard. The original concern was that it would not be a match. But, as you probably know, they try these types of procedures on animals, before they allow it for humans. They did a test graft to a Rhesus monkey and said it worked fabulously. It was virtually a perfect match. Go figure. What to do, what to do. Your opinions please.

Mr. Monohair,Being vain about your appearance, as it stands today, is nothing to be vain about. You should look your best, but AC as a donor - WHAT ARE YOU THINKING - have you taken a close look at the posted AC pic's The Rhesus monkey would be a closer match to your ancestors DNA anyway. Now if you wanted to look like the Pillsbury doughboy - I'm a perfect candidate, and can supply fat tissue, by the ton or pound, your choice. Your pal

Ed,Somehow, this "story" applie here ... A married couple was in a terrible accident where the woman's face was severely burned. The doctor told the husband that they couldn't graft any skin from her body because she was too skinny. So the husband offered to donate some of his own skin. However, the only skin on his body that the doctor felt was suitable would have to come from his buttocks. The husband and wife agreed that they would tell no one about where the skin came from, and requested that the doctor also honor their secret. After all, this was a very delicate matter. After the surgery was completed, everyone was astounded at the woman's new beauty. She looked more beautiful than she ever had before! All her friends and relatives just went on and on about her youthful beauty! One day, she was alone with her husband, and she was overcome with emotion at his sacrifice. She said, "Dear, I just want to thank you for everything you did for me. There is no way I could ever repay you." "My darling," he replied, "I get all the thanks I need every time I see your mother kiss you on the cheek.
