Barber Joe
in conversation during my regular High & Tight last night, says “I can always tell when a guy has a yappy wife”.
me: “His ears are bleeding?”
Joe: “No, hairy. A guy has a wife won’t shut the fuck up, his ears are hairy as a french woman’s armpits.”
me: “Really!”
Joe: Yeah. I been a barber 50 years and it’s always true. A guy has hairy ears,I ask him, you got a yappy wife? Every time he says ‘Jesus is she ever!'”
me: “Joe, you’ve done a great service to science.”
Joe: “I don’t know about that. I just know the body is smart, and it tries to close off those holes where the pain is coming through”

Brilliant. This explains much.
But it doesn’t explain my nose hairs.
Does the wife fart a lot?
I’ve been divorced for 30 years. I suggest “yappy women” may be the more general cause.
And perfumes (oily colognes too).
All that hair growing on my back? Correlation isn’t causation, you know. :)
Lol. I wonder if anyone will get that.
Will, how often did you tell her to “Get off my back, woman!!”
LOL! Well, I always cut Joe’s hair, and he never had more than a hair or two in his ears. No hair on his back, either. Hmmm…will have to ponder this.
Liz, theres’ no question you are a good woman.
Your guy sounds like a treasure. I miss my old Italian barber, Sal.
I haven’t been here in too long. This is almost worth the wait. Glad you’re still here Og. Almost made it to SHOT this year. Hopefully next year, first round is on me.
