Making money ain't that hard for me. I tell the wife to give me $50 for groceries and I come home with $20 worth of groceries. ::)

Reminds me of when I was a kid. My mom would give me $5 to go get a haircut. I'd pocket the money and have my friend cut my hair!  (7+"

Haven't paid for a haircut for me in years.  Clippers do just fine for what little is left on sides and back.

 Mom was stuck in the 50's where my hair was concerned. As far back as I can remember I had this greaser side part that took lots of Vitalis to hold in place like this. When I was 15 I said enough and had it cut in a Beatles cut with bangs.

I haven't had a professional haircut since just before our marriage. My wife's hair stylist gave us each a free haircut as a wedding present. Since then, my wife has cut my hair. I don't even know what a haircut costs these days. I imagine it will depend on where you live.

Same here, no sense paying for a haircut at a Barber Shop when I have horse clippers in the barn. The wife does mine. What does a haircut cost these day ? I bet they raised the price to $5 now.

 My last haircut was 17-18 years ago.
I started shaving my head back then and never looked back.
I love it.
And the women love it! They find a smooth shaved head very sexy.

I can't think of a better reason for copping a buzz.  (The hair cut type.)

Last night, I earned my living by determining that the hot wire on a toilet had shorted to ground and tagging the breaker out.

Why...would a toilet have a "hot wire"? The question itself is shocking!

I'm stumped. Maybe to heat the seat?  It gets cold in AZ, too sometimes.

I was wondering the same thing fellas. Maybe we're missing out on some kind of electric toilet?

Hmm. He IS an Electric Miner. Maybe we don't want to know?
