None canserous dude.
It is a little weird to have a quater of my skull metal ;)
I am pretty sure it wont set off alarms, Titinium is nonmagnetic.
As Jar-Jar once said, "SO good be'n home"

EEK! I didn't know you were in the hospital! But I suppose in this case ignorance is bliss, since I didn't have to worry about you. I'm so glad you're okay!

Glad it went okay, kid. Welcome back.
How about "bucket head". Ummm...yeah...you might not get the reference to Fett right away.
I thought it would be funny if it was magnetic then I would put a Magnent in a Boba helmet and it would not come off!
That would be funny

Yup all the hair is fine. (Just a little to short for my liking)
My Mom said I was brave in the hospitle. I never complained. And, now! I get to have fun with my BRAND SPANKING NEW NINTENDO DS!!! WOOT!!!

Umm...one more question, Buckethead. If someone drops, oh say, a piano on top of your head, would it hurt or would it hit your buckethead and break the piano in half? :P :P jk

I have pictures of my tumor if anyone wants to see them. BEware! they are evil looking!!!!
They are pretty graphic so if you have a weak stomach.. Do not look at them. (look at own risk)

notice on the bottom picture, The inside of my skull was lumpy.. It is saposed to be smooth.
The top pic you can see the dark area, that was visible and it a big lump on my head!!

"I wonder what the weather is like on Kamino right now?" Delta 62, Scorch.
Wow! So that's your skull in those pictures? How did you get the tumor anyway? It looks fairly big.

Jezz, no offense or anything, but, it looks like something that crawled out from like a sci-fi movie or something.

Yes it was 8 inches all together! No one knows why this tumor forms. Its a rare bone tumor so...

tell me about it!
It looks nasty!!
And it came out of me!!
thats the worst part

Well everybody I have an update!
Thats my head now!

Glad to hear you're on the mend. Did they sew up your scalp, or did they leave the metal exposed like the guy from "Texas Chainsaw Massacre II"? Just don't scratch at it with a bent coathanger hook.
PS... stop using your celphone so much.
Get better, Boba Dude!

lol, it was not his cell phone.But they did sew him back up.
Wow, so glad that you're ok!
Alright, now for the medical geek in me, those scans are so neat!! My dad used to work in x-ray and cardiology, and now works in nuc. medicine, so these kinda images always fascinate me. So, thanks for sharing!
What did they do with the tumor? I've always wondered about these things....I had a ligament wrapped around my intestines a few years ago and I never even got the see it, I was kinda hoping they would put it in a jar or something for me.

i never knew you before, but im glad youre better! titanium head.... aaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeesome!
Great to have you back Bucket...i mean " Boba dude." ;D
Everything was geting kinda lonely here without you.
* Shudders * I have some bad memories from the hospital.

I have one thing to say....
METALHEAD!
Anyone screwing around with your head ain't fun.. I got a concussion back in July and had a gash in my scalp that required stitches. Oh, that was fun with my long hair.
So, are you going to set off the metal detectors in the airport? Will the metal portion of your skull be stronger than the bone? Titanium is a very hard metal.

They took it too a lab and tested it. The tumor is rare so the know almost nothing about it.
SD_Chick ,
No I won't set off metal detectors. My head will never be "as" strong as it was. But in the question you asked, yes.
Thanks for all of your support!

"I wonder what the weather is like on Kamino right now?" Delta 62, Scorch.

Looks like the tumor involved the bone since they ran off with part of your skull. Bone tumors tend to hang out for a long time until they get big enough to notice.
Wear a helmet if you gotta get your kicks bike riding or something. It will save you a lot of trouble. :D
Wow! I thought getting titanium rods in my back was bad! I hope you are doing ok, I know what it's like to go through major surgery.
Take it easy and feel better!

No I am not a cyborg Humorbot, I have no computer crap in me.
yeah, sugery is not fun. I was allergic to two of the pain killers they gave me :(
Puking stomach acid all day is NOT fun at all.
I am duing just find now. My scare is almost invisible now :D
Thank God for Childrens Hospitl.
Laughing gas is fun/wierd.

By definition, you are a cyborg. If they took out that patch of skin with the skin, how did cover up the titanium? I always wanted to know if titanium could block a bullet. I will just have to meet you and find out, first hand :P.
Cyborg - A person whose physiological functioning is aided by or dependent upon a mechanical or electronic device.
Technically he is not a cyborg as he his not kept alive by a mechanical or electronic device. But I can see how someone might think that. Darth Vader is a cyborg.
I am occasionally called RoboMan....:lol:

They cut a zig zag insion across the top of my head, then they pulled me fase down. (Thats so nasty)
I agree with Jacsveus, I am not a cyborg! There is no mechanical or electronic device's in me.
draco fett, I don't really know if titanium is bullet proof.
Here is a link to the place where you can find out here

I kinda know what you mean, I had my appendix removed when I was reeeeally little, and me and my mom both wanted to keep it. But hospital protocol wouldn't let us. >< They only let us keep the gas mask they used on me. That alone freaked out all of my friends, so God knows what an an entire ORGAN would've done to them. o_o
Boba Dude, you're so lucky to have a small, nearly invisible scar.....the appendix scar I have is HUGE, and noticible. It sucks, because unless I wanna wear some sort of granny one piece, its totally visible in a bathing suit.... Or even normally, if my shirt starts to ride up on me. D=
Metal plate though... >.> Does that mean if someone raps on your head they'll get some sort of bang? =O
If you want to know about Titanium go to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium
But to answer the question, sure titanium is bulletproof, but so is steel. It is a lot stronger than steel and would stop a bullet but the thickness of the plate on his head probably wouldn't. Let's just hope he doesn't get shot in the head. (as cool as it might be to say your skull stopped a bullet ;))

Hey Boba Dude, I missed this thread originally (probably because I was on my honeymoon in May). Glad to see everything is healing well. By the way the pics are awesome. Must feel a bit unreal to look at that and know it's you ;)
Ceilia, I'm not sure if it works on older scars - but paw paw cream is great for healing and leaving little to no scarring. I've got a scar on my chest, under my right breast, where I had a small tumor removed (also benign). It used to be fairly pink and icky looking. Over the years it's reduced in size and is the same colour as my skin. So don't fear ;)
It was like thousands of voices cried out for a sequel and were suddenly silenced...
Glad to see you back, Boba Dude! Thank heavens it wasn't cancerous! Wicked pictures, by the way. :) Most I ever had done to me was in August when I got my wisdom teeth taken out, it hurt like heck. I lived on slushies and crushed popsicles for a week.
My Mother gave me and ARC a gift at dinner yesterday. guess what it was? The newest pic of MY head, ON A SHIRT! I am soooo wearing it to school today!
Again, thanks for everbody's support. The place rocks, everybody is SOOOOOOOO nice here!

Well I knew fully well he wasn't a human robot...Or a Grievous impersonator....I was just kidding around....
I retrospect a :P would have confirmed this....
I was joking about his skull stopping a bullet. According tho my dictionary, a cyborg is "a being, usually human, who has mechanical or metallic implants." We are getting rather off topic however.
