A funny bit on 30 Rock

We all could use a laugh, right? This isn't strictly about alopecia areata, but...close enough.

A few nights ago, the TV show 30 Rock the self-obsessed actress, Jenna (played by Jane Krakowski) was donating her hair in order to gain some much-needed publicity. They showed her on the Today show being interviewed by Meredith Viera. Viera asks her about donating her hair to Locks of Love. Jenna responds that Locks of Love wouldn't accept her hair because it's "way too processed for sick people". She then says with a smile that she's donating her hair to "Merkins of Hope". (If you don't know what a "merkin" is, you won't get this joke. Look on Wikipedia for a full explanation.)

I thought this was hilarious - and it went by so quickly most people probably didn't hear it.

Wishing smiles to all,
Mary

I just love the title of the group - "Merkins of Hope"!

I'm adding another potential T-shirt to my growing collection of ideas:

"Merkins of Hope...donate now."
