Blond @ MindSay 
Impossible!", says the doctor. "Show me."
The redhead takes her finger, pushes on her left breast, and screams, then she pushes her elbow, and screams in even more agony. She pushes her knee and screams, then she pushes on her thigh, and more screaming. Pushes her ankle, more screams, and everywhere she touches, makes her scream.
Doctor says, "you're not really a redhead are you?"
Well, no" she says, "I'm actually a blonde."
I thought so", the doctor says. "Your finger is broken."
But not to get too optimistic, says U. of Edinburgh Prof,
since traits only disappear when they cease serving a purpose, all of which points to the extinction of Blonds by approximately 2206. Yippie! ]

A study by experts in Germany suggests people with blonde hair are an endangered species and will become extinct by 2202.
Researchers predict the last truly natural blonde will be born in Finland - the country with the highest proportion of blondes.

The problem is that blonde hair is caused by a recessive gene.
In order for a child to have blonde hair, it must have the gene on both sides of the family in the grandparents' generation.
Dyed rivals
The researchers also believe that so-called bottle blondes may be to blame for the demise of their natural rivals.
They suggest that dyed-blondes are more attractive to men who choose them as partners over true blondes.

"Genes don't die out unless there is a disadvantage of having that gene or by chance. They don't disappear," he told BBC News Online.
"The only reason blondes would disappear is if having the gene was a disadvantage and I do not think that is the case.
