' Bald men found to be at greater risk of heart disease' (The Times 04/04/13)
****
New research from scientists in Japan claims that Bald men are significantly more likely to suffer from heart disease. Alarming news! But thankfully other scientists do not accept that any causal link has been fully established and that much more rigorous research needs to be done before the follicularly challenged amongst us start to panic. I am left none the wiser, although I am sure I have less hair than I did yesterday, maybe it was just the haircut!.

Scientists in Japan assert that Heart Disease
Is linked to male-pattern baldness, if you please
But worry not do not be alarmed
You may be losing all your charms
Your hair is falling out, there is no doubt
Once copious growth will no longer sprout
Things are not so bad this is yet to be shown as true
So carry on as normal as you do
Some hate to be bald, others care not a fig
If it really bothers you then buy a wig.
