I am always looking for a bargain, but I think I goofed when I asked the barber if I could get half off…. I shoulda known when he agreed a bit too quickly.
Bobarion said, about 11 hours ago@neverenoughgoldSo happy for you now that you have things explained. Now you know all about me and ain’t that just peachy keen.
I’m a 73 year old guy with an 18 year old mind, and my female barber talked about breast lumps the other day. I was willing, but she could really kick my boys into next year.
Gioachino Rossini, composer of the opera “The Barber of Seville” (FEEEEE-ga-ro!!!!) was leaving his barber’s when the barber said, “Until tonight, maestro.”.Rossini turned, puzzled. “Tonight?”.“Yes. Tonight is the first rehearsal for “Torvaldo”, is it not?".“Well, yes.”.“I play first clarinet in the orchestra.”.Sure enough, when Rossini arrived at the theater that evening, there was the barber in the first clarinet’s chair. And after the rehearsal, everyone commented on how calmly Rossini discussed the barber’s mistakes, while screaming at everyone else.
Or a dentist when they are poking around your mouth with sharp tools.For any smart guys, I know you can’t talk with your mouth wide open so maybe the criticism will occur BEFORE the dentist pokes those tools around in your mouth.xxx

As my dentist says, “Always speak politely to someone standing over you with a sharp instrument.”

Three people never to insult:
