Maddy: do u not have hair or did u just shave ur head?
Well, it's a bit of both really. Firstly, my hair is slowly falling out as I get older. The doctors say that only the best men go bald so I'm OK with that. Secondly, I shaved what is left of my hair right down to the skin. It's really useful having no hair. You don't have to dry it when you get out of the shower and it is useful at work for sticking things to and writing messages on that you don't want to forget.
Elise: Why are you so bossy?
I'm bossy because I'm the boss. I wouldn't have to be bossy if everyone else wasn't so silly and did what I said the first time. I mean how hard is it to listen to what I say and then do it? But no, I have to keep repeating myself to all these silly body parts and professors becasue they just don't get it. I'm the head of course I know best about everything. That's what heads are for.
Joyan (Jonno and Ryan): What happens if get an itchy ear?
At first I tried to itch it with my tongue but the wax tasted really gross. Next I tried banging my ear against the box but that just hurt and gave me an swollen ear. I looked like an elephant. Eventually the professor made me an automatic ear scratcher because my arms refused to stick their fingers in my ears. That was good and sometimes, just for variety, I scratch my ear with my toes. The legs get kind of a kick out of trying to do contortions.
Joshua: i know how you must feel having a dumb pair of legs but how do you feel having girls for arms?
I've gotta say that the whole finger nail polish thing was the hardest for me to come to terms with. It really makes playing cricket hard because they hold the bat and throw like a girl. I'm sure you know what I mean.
Larry: Do you think you will ever grow hair or a decent pair of eyebrows?
Unfortunately Larry, I believe both of those are the impossible dream for me. For some reason the professor created me in such a way that all my growth energy goes into my finger nails and ear hair. My goal is one day to appear in a circus as the man with ear hair comb overs.
Sophie: how did u get ur head through the hole?
I had to sit under the box with pillows under my bottom and then stretch up as high as I could to make my head stick out of the top of the box. It was hard work.
Olivia: Do u know DAVE?
Yes. In fact you could say that we are very closely related. I really like him. He and I usually go everywhere together when I'm not in the box.
