37 years ago today, my brother said, "you know, this is REALLY a cool thing." He was right.

I share a sensitive skin problem with, of all people, Yassir Arafat. I have extremely sensitive facial skin, and if I shave, even with an electric razor, my skin turns bright red like a boiled lobster. Arafat used to solve his "problem" by clipping his beard short with scissors, which I thought looked terrible, so I let mine grow out instead. My high school tried to pressure me to shave it off for the graduation ceremony (thought they were being "conservative" ), and I told them no way. As revenge, I slipped my brother, a junior at a rival school, into the graduation picture, and they never found out until six months later. They were so unconcerned about the student body, they to this day know there is a ringer in our class photo, but have no earthly clue who it is. Hell, I bet over half my classmates couldn't tell you, either!
