Popular BaldingBlog.com Site Introduces New “Hair-Brained
Idea Of The Month” Award
L.A. City Council’s Debate Over Proposed “Moratorium
On Killing” Named Debut “Honoree”
LOS ANGELES (Business Wire EON) April 25, 2008 --
BaldingBlog.com, the popular site established by renowned hair
transplant surgeon Dr. William Rassman to offer consumers guidance on
everything from hair cloning to medications and their sexual side
effects, today introduces the new “Hair-Brained
Idea Of The Month” Award. The new “honor”
will be given to an individual, group, company, product or trend deemed
the dopiest, silliest, and most mock-inducing of the past month.
“Hair-Brained Idea Of The Month”
award winners will receive a hair brush and shampoo set if they email
BaldingBlog.com by visiting the site’s “Contact”
page.
The first-ever “Hair-Brained Idea”
award winner is the Los Angeles City Council, which amazingly spent a
full 45 minutes of tax-payer time early in the month debating whether to
implement a symbolic 40-hour ban on killing. Though logic finally
prevailed and the Council opted instead to use the then-upcoming
anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s
assassination to promote peace, BaldingBlog.com finds it difficult to
account why this esteemed group of city leaders didn’t
dismiss the killing moratorium notion in, say, 45 seconds.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the symbolic ban on homicides had
been proposed by Los Angeles author and political commentator Earl Ofari
Hutchinson in an effort to persuade the city to make a bold statement
about the recent increase in homicides.
“I’m sure that the
people who are doing the killing will hear that the council is calling
for a moratorium and then cease and desist,“
a sarcastic Joe Hicks, a former executive director of the city’s
Human Relations Commission, is quoted as saying in the Times story. “It’s
more silliness from our wonderful City Council.”
“Given how many hair-brained ideas and
schemes fill the news all the time, we may have to make this a daily award
instead of a monthly one,” added Dr. Rassman.
