all i want to know is, does eric really shave all the sides of his head to where he only has hair on top?
No, I do. (It's a bit hard to shave bits of your own head evenly.)

oh damit I'm to late :D i just saw the picture and the first thing that pop'ed into my head was: "Remember kids, Check your ball's for cancer.... It might just make your day"
Before: I don't have the right tools available to make some cool Instructables. After: DIY Network is giving away $15,000 to spend on tools!
I had to read what i wrote twice before i got it. Nice self-deprecation!

Eric upon learning that Instructables qualifies as a bank under the bailout.
If we don't make our traffic numbers for the year, I'm demanding some sort of bailout. It's the new capitalism.
No, it's the last desperate gasp of the "old" (okay, just the last eight years') capitalism. Get in while you can :-)

Congrats! I really thought mine would have a good chance.....
Thanks for putting this little contest on! That tape measure looks like a Komelon SS Gripper. I bought one as a gift a while back and it seemed like a nice one.
That Tape measure looks like the ones with my dad's work logo on it.
