Advantage--better service
« on: January 14, 2012, 11:17:02 AM »
Well, I did the "making groceries" run today, we're bbq'ing during the Saint's/49's game this afternoon.  I wanted to do leg quarters but didn't see any in the self serve box.  So, spotting a butcher loading another section of the self-serve area, I asked him if he had any in the back, and I noticed---even with his cap--that he was a fellow sly guy.  So he said he'd check and I gave him the "Nice haircut!" comment.  Said he, "I really like my barber" laughed and headed to the back.  While he's back there I located some preseasoned leg quarters in the "prepared" section.  I was starting to load those, when he returned with the bags of leg quarters from the back.  I thanked him but said I'd found some.  He asked how much they were, $1.69/lb!  He says, "These are 79 cents/lb, cheapest we've had in a long time, and they're just delivered!"
So, I saved money, got fresher goods, just because I dealt with another sly guy! 
Anyone else ever gotten superior service because of our hairstyle?

you guys will get the FIRST pictures.

Debating whether to just do it myself, or see the barber for a pampered straight razor shave for the first time.  My buddy who was going to join me was nixed by his wife.  She said, "No hair, No s.x".  So he took the guys choice. 

I'll probably just do it myself.  Have all the equipment.  I'm ready.

I know it won't look too much different.  I'm almost bald now with the short buzz, but I'm anticipating that it will feel different and there will be some visual difference.

Yes zed, let's get it shaved. Why wait?, just do it today. As close as you buzz it now it's not that far a stretch. Most people won't even notice much of a difference, but for you, the freshly shaved guy, it really is a great feeling being smooth.   O0
