True Story

Last time my hairdresser Bernice gives me a #2 razor cut on top and #1 on the side, sort of a classic crew cut that's very short.

This time (today) I tell her to go #3 on top, so it's a bit longer. She does so and then goes over my sides again with the #1 to smooth it out.

Then the phone rings and her brother's talking from the hospital. Distracted, she continues with the far shorter #1 to cut a nice deep row down the middle of my head--sort of a reverse mohawk.

"Did you just ...?" I queried.

"I can't believe I just did that!" replies Bernice.

I say, "Relax, I screwed up at work this week plenty and my people still like me."

Suffice it to say, I'm looking very high and very tight right now.

I'll get you an age waiver for OCS at Quantico. Together with your new haircut would we'd love to have our first USMC 2ndLt with a Ph.D.!

Yes, yes, a great hair cut. But how much did it cost?

My last one was $15.00 (which included a $2.00 tip.)

Are you in Edwards' league?

I made Bernice take the $13 for the cut, but she adamantly refused a tip.
