      I solved that problem about 7 years ago! That's the last time I went for a haircut.

                I think he was never off to second place at all! He was richest, in 2015 too. Anyways, if all the problem is to get the haircut, come to Pakistan. Because, barbers here can offer a "suitable" haircut in just $0.5 (Which is 50 rupees), with proper shave and mustache trimming for just extra $0.1! :-)

                So to save ~$10 on a haircut, I should spend ~$1000 on airfare. Yup. Makes perfect sense. :laugh:

                    I haven't paid for a hair cut in 25 years. Every couple of weeks I get out the clippers and buzz it off.

                                  I'm not there yet but it won't be long, I'll decide when I do get there. Somewhere the other day I saw where someone had transferred a head to another body...maybe a 21 year old head? :)
