Well, Here is a Blast from My Web Past
Around 1995 0r so, I really do not recall when exactly, I decided that the web was just too useful for me to compete on utility, so I would compete on uselessness.
So I created, hand coded, because that was the way then, a web page dedicated to bad hair days.
Originally, it was just me, you've seen the picture, it's in the right column, and Al (Einstein, that is, the patron saint of bad hair).
Well, I realized that not only did the Internet completely out-class me in useful things, but it completely outclassed me in useless things, so it never went that far.
That being said, I did add one other public figure, just 12 days before September 11, 2001, James Traficant, who had arguably the worst hair in the 200+ year history of Congress.
Mr. Traficant was subsequently tried and convicted for matters unrelated to his hair, corruption, and expelled from Congress.
Well, He's back!!!!!!
After serving 7 years for bribery, he is running for his old seat as an independent in his old district in Youngstown, OH.
Same as it ever was……
