It might be cool if you could get some of those bone spurs to grow out of the top of your head like that Darth Maul guy.
What do you mean 'if'? You don't think he wears his hair like that for style do you?
I had a friend who had a bone spur removed from his knee this past summer. Recovery was amazingly swift and boy is he in a whole lot less pain...hell, he can get around a lot better than I can.
