Ed Lenci gets shorn.

No, he wasn't heavily invested in subprime mortgage backed securities, or a major holder of Bear Stearns stock. As explained in this earlier post, Ed volunteered to have his head shaved to help raise money for children's cancer research through St. Baldrick's Foundation. So, on this St. Patrick's Day afternoon, Ed repaired to Jim Brady's, on Maiden Lane in lower Manhattan, to submit to the shears. Here he is, gamely awaiting his date with destiny:


He takes the fateful chair:


Going, ...


... going, ...


... gone.


Congratulations to Ed on his shiny new look, and thanks to all who made it worthwhile by contributing to St. Baldrick's.

Thanks, Arch. I'm guessing you got the word from Tenacious K, who's also celebrating a birthday today.
