What would you choose?

Tonight when I was leaving for a rehearsal (by the way, I'm in a show), 17-month-old cute-as-a-button Rachel approached me and said, "Hold me! Hold me!" I was happy she wanted to spend a moment with me. But just as I started to lean over to pick her up, she became very excited and detoured to her left to go around me, saying "Brush! Brush!" and then picked up a toy hairbrush on the floor behind me.

What would you choose? Your dad, or a hairbrush?

Snopes Mini: Go Up, Thou Bald Head

Welcome to Snopes Mini, where we debunk urban legends one at a time. In fact, I have only one myth to dispel today.

Claim: Baldness, or lack thereof, is inherited from one's mother's father.

Status: False.
I don't see the top of my own head very often. So I was pretty surprised to discover this a couple of weeks ago. I was especially surprised because I have always been taught that I would go my whole life with a full head of hair because my maternal grandfather did so.

I'm not too upset about it. I'm more amused that I didn't know, and that Tracy didn't tell me.

And what, you may ask, does this have to do with the kiddodiddos? Nothing for now, but it will in about 25 years (hee hee Jimmy!).
