EXTRA!!

MR. TOAST SHAVES HEAD, GOES INTO REHAB!

TEXAS (AP) - The blogosphere was still in shock this evening after the pop icon known as "Mr. Toast" unexpectedly shaved off all his hair before a stunned group of onlookers earlier today. The stock market plummeted, rivers reversed their flow, and planes fell out of the sky as the world reeled from the astounding news. Major television networks interrupted their regular programming to trot a non-stop parade of behavioral experts including psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, and psychologists (with a couple of phlebotomists thrown in for good measure) in front of the cameras, all seeking to answer the endless public cries of "Why? Why would anyone do such a shocking thing? Why? Oh my God, Why?"

Paparazzi from all over the world converged on the Lone Star state trying to snap pictures of the newly bald Toast, however he remained secluded at an undisclosed location, releasing only one publicity photo (shown above) to the media. When it was pointed out that the image strongly appeared to be Photoshopped (and poorly at that), Mr. Toast responded that anyone foolish enough to consider going to this website to place a minimum one million dollar bid for the locks of a former Pop Icon also might conceivably be dumb enough to fall for this stunt as well.

In an attempt to escape the media circus, I, er... that is, Mr. Toast then checked into Rehab. Seriously. OK, we're talking about cardio-pulmonary rehab here people, where you work out on exercise machines at the local hospital while a nurse monitors your vital signs. Yeah sure, it's supposed to help people with heart or lung problems stay healthier and technically speaking it's a "multi-disciplinary program of care for patients with chronic respiratory impairment that is individually tailored and designed to optimize physical and social performance and autonomy" but it's still rehabilitation and maybe I was kidding about the hair thing but hey give me a freakin' break already.

At least I'm wearing underwear.

    For goodness sakes man! Make sure that underwear doesn't have holes in it...you are at the doctor's place...have some respect! Oh...and I thought you looked wonderful sans hair btw...then found it not to be true. Seek the help of Nancy Grace and quickly I might add!
