I know a barber shop is a place where you can be whatever you like. Its not until you leave that we sift through your stories and laugh at how ridiculous they are. The shop is a theater in its own right. We have all types of characters. Sometimes we will confront your story while you are there just to see how far you take it but sometimes we play along with you. I love the shop envoroment.
We had a real whopper come across our ears Saturday. Now listen to this. A guy comes in who has a history of some really creative stories so we know he has a good one for us this time. He went to the events in Washington when history was made and President Obama gave his historic speech.

First he started by telling us how they drove a van across a frozen lake and saw a car fall into the lake. The only reason they saw it cause the head lights were shinning up through the ice.

( Sorry everyone I am crying laughing while I type so excuse my errors) They tied a rope around the car ( they just happen to have with them I geuss

) and pulled the car to saftey ( How they had enough traction on the ice to pull a car out the ice with a van I dont know...... Matter a fact I dont even know how they got access to a frozen lake to drive across but that all takes the fun away so what ever

). So after that story he said they got to the place and it was crowed. He then told us that he was standing 2 feet away from a missile launcher

that the military brought to save the President. 2 feet away yall. So the customer that I was servicing asked who he was while we laughed...... I mean listened to this moment in history. I expalined to him and we finished laughing ...... Damn I mean listening

until he finished his story and left. So yall know I brought it up to everyone. ( I am the one that normally says what everyone else in the shop is thinking but scared to say) We all laughed at him. Then Major ( the voice of reason for any situation

) says.... "Man yall have to understand this guy has an interesting life"...... (Obviously

) (Major takes up for everyone and believes everthing someone says) So we say that has nothing to do with him being allowed to stand 2 feet away from a missile launcher at the inauguration. We watched CNN all day and aint nobody seen no damn missle launcher in a no fly zone in Washington. Then Major really broke the game with this information. "Man yall know thats Prince's cousin"

( the artist formally known as Prince..... Purple Rain Prince).

We all fail out....... LMAO, ROFL
