Barber Time


There are only two barbers in a small village. One of the barbers has a neatly trimmed head of hair. The other's hair is a complete mess. Which of the two barbers should you go to and why?

We all know that the answer to that is ... go to the one with the messy hair since he is the one who cut the other barber's hair.

Now ... if there is only ONE barber in the house. And it is a school day tomorrow. And you either have been explicitly told to have a hair cut or have a note in your diary saying you need a haircut. What should you do?

Of course the answer to that is ... ask that single person who knows how to cut hair to cut your hair, even if that person is your mother.

(Tomorrow, we'll see whether GI's teacher tells him that he still needs a haircut and RD gets another note in his diary.)
