Try and guess who has the biggest head.  At the end the 10 subjects will report the results.  Let's see how we measure up.  Measure your heads circumference at forehead level.  This is clearly a palm related topic because a bigger head holds more palms.  Wow, I am bored.

Mod Edit: Sorry Matty --- "clearly a palm related topic because a bigger head holds more palms" won't get past this moderator. Hence, it's moved to "Ohana Nui." Good thing you didn't include me in the poll.

Hmm.

For just a second I thought we were talking about crowns on palms.

Don't know my head circumf, but I've always had a fat one.  I have to be careful to find a cap that fits me.  I think I'm an 8 or 8 1/4 . . . .

Measure when I get home with a tape . . .

That's right DeanO, you have a pretty impressive melon.  I can't tell if it's mostly hair though.  You're pretty chia pet with the "do".  Only 10 spots in the poll so you lucked out this time.

AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHH heh heh heh heh, hmmmm awkward silence, true story, i once knocked a kid (i was 17 or 18 myself) off his ten speed with that same hot shot, he stole the cd player out of my truck, and I chased him down the street, he wouldnt pull over, so i reached out and stung him under the arm with it!!!

after that he wanted to confess ALL his SINS he was begging for the cops to arrest him and take him away from the gringo loco!!!  he landed in the local all state insurance guys front yard.
