A. Victor Segno — “How to Live 100 Years”

“Women are rarely bald, a condition largely due to wearing thin airy hats. Indians who have never worn a hat never suffer from baldness.”

    it’s true – i’ve worn baseball hats for years and I am losing my hair. Wish I’d known to wear thin airy hats…or none at all. ; )

    Bender – Maybe there were other Sengos but this one is Segno, not Sengo.

    Got those mental waves forcing my fingers to create a new name. Wondering if A Victor is still alive. After all, he knew how to live to be at least one hundred, with well dressed hair. Who wants to see naked hair anyway?
