It's always the strangest, quirkiest thing.
Over the years, I've had people gravitate, for some reason, to some of the strange things that I do. One year it was warm so I decided to go to the beach on my December birthday; I heard about that for weeks afterward. Another year I held a (tongue in cheek) bake sale for NMU when they were going through one of their periodic rounds of budget cuts, and comments about that kept popping up for months afterwards. Now, over the course of the past few days, I've had several people ask about something I got rid of a month ago.
They've wondered what happened to the Corona Curls.
That's right; I've had a couple of people wonder what happened to the mass (or mess) of hair that was growing on my head between early March and late September. I myself had kind of forgotten about them, but apparently I was the only one. One of the people asking about them even asked if I was thinking of coloring my hair purple again any time soon.
I wasn't, but I still have the hair coloring, and it'll probably be a month or so before I can start shooting that TV show I host, so...

I just think it's funny—I do a lot of strange things in my life. It's part of, for better or for worse, who I am. It's just that it always seems like the things I don't think about much—like the Corona Curls or Birthday at the Beach—are the things that resonate with people the most. I have no idea how; I have no idea why. I just know that if I could figure out I could probably make some money off of it.
I'm not quite sure how, but there must be a way to do so in there somewhere.
So the next time I do something strange I'll be curious to see if people pick up on it or not. I have no idea if it'll happen. About the only thing I'm sure of is that it'll be the most unlikely action that draw the biggest attention.
