WHAT A BARGAIN

Thursday, August 09, 2007

Talk about inflation—men’s hair cuts are now $400.00. I’m sure that’s right. John Edwards wouldn’t pay more than the going rate, would he? He wants to be our leader and help us to live a better life. Therefore I know he is trying to set a good example by his spending habits.

Man, did I ever get a bargain today. I saved $390.00 on my hair cut. I realize that’s the senior’s price, but the other ol’ boys in the shop were only paying $12.00. What a bargain! I gave the lady a good tip. At those prices I can afford to.

I use the ten minutes I’m in the barber’s chair to meditate. I try not to sleep because I don’t want to scare others with my snoring and I don’t want them to say after I leave, “Did you see that ol’ coot ? He almost snapped his neck off.” I was thinking: “I don’t care how much John Edwards pays for his hair cuts. I didn’t care that Dan Quayle couldn’t spell potato. I forget myself, from time to time. When making a grocery shopping list I usually just put down pot. and let it go. If my mind keeps slipping, someday I’m going to come home with a pot and no potatoes to put in it.

But I do care—I care a lot, about what evil dictators our next President is willing to talk to and what he is going to do and not do with bombs.
