A word about my blog .....

I'm using this blog to keep notes on my life and experiences, plus to keep track of my own recovery from a stroke (December 2006).

For those of you who were not aware, my brother, John, died on February 10, 2010. His remains were cremated and interred at Green Hills Memorial Park.

0720 haircut

I went to get my hair cut today. The sides weren’t short enough the last time, so I kept an eye out for a picture to use as an example. I found one. It was a picture of Anderson Cooper with graphics promoting his “AC360” show on CNN.

I showed it to my barber and asked if he could cut it that short. He said he could and started trimming.

While he was combing and cutting, he mentioned that Cooper probably goes to a salon and pays $100 for his haircut, and then deducts it as a business expense. I told him that I couldn’t deduct it, so to just give me the $10 version.

He stopped and said, “Well, in that case, we’re done!” After a few seconds, he resumed his combing and cutting. He said that he was just kidding, but the look on my face made it worthwhile.

I can imagine the look on my face. At the moment he stopped, my hair ... well, let’s just say that Hitler had a better haircut.
