Gary's Uptown Restaurant and Bar was featured in a recent issue of the
National Enquirer, and a story about it is displayed prominently at http://
www.stophairlossnow.com/, billed as ``Europe's largest and most innovative
hair loss Web site,'' as well as http://www.baldrus.com/ -- a Washington,
D.C.-based group whose founder boasts, ``I'm too sexy for my hair.''

Arnold has even been approached by a company that sells headblades -- for
keeping your head smooth and shiny -- that is interested in sponsoring a
promotion at the restaurant.

``Most bald guys have a sense of humor about it,'' said Arnold, who played
football at Archbishop Mitty and honed his culinary skills at Uncle John's
Pancake House. ``Only one guy denied that he was bald. He refused to take a
discount.''

On a recent Wednesday night, just about every party that walked through the
door included someone with a little shine up top. They were handed a special
``Bald Guy's Menu,'' with nine dinner entrees, including Arnold's personal
favorite, the four-piece fried chicken dinner that includes soup or salad and
fries.

Whether it was their first or their 15th visit, everyone was in good humor.
Free food will do that to a person.

``It's a great gimmick,'' said Frank Kearne, who was dining with his wife,
Lylene. ``A lot of guys try to hide their baldness, but I say, it's a fact of life,
so let's have fun with it.''

That was what Arnold was thinking when he unveiled the idea in April.
