I look like what?

So I went to get my hair cut while I was in Hilton Head. When he was finishing, the young barber said, “I’ll guess you’re a biker.” I was so surprised I replied, “You mean like a motorcycle guy? Why would you think that?” Remember this is happening to the mild mannered, retired LIBRARIAN!

He said, “Well you have such a severe look!” Severe look! What does that even mean. Here I am, one of the gentlest, most reserved, socially backward folks on earth. I am the guy my youngest granddaughter awakens in the morning by yelling “It’s on, Buddy!” just as she lands on my head!

Some barbers are not very good judges of character.

Be kind. I'm so old a snide comment might be the end of me!
