h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I was reading up on some of the most current conspiracy theories. Most of them regard terrorism, war and other front page news.

Later that week I visited my barber. And it occured to me that when I talked with him, he occured to be asking me a lot of questions. He appeared to have a lot of questions about some of the topics I was reading about in my newspaper. He was asking a lot of pointed questions, trying to get more info from me. It appeared to me that he wanted to know much more than any average haircutter.

I laughed as I thought about Bob Hope. He once said that all of the problems of the world could be fixed, if only his barber would run for President.

If my barber would run for President, we might be a lot better off. We might have a better handle on some of the issues that bother the average person. But then again, we might all have to take Mondays off.

When I started to think more about Barbers, I started to wonder about where they got their schooling? Where do they go for annual reviews? Where do they get that blue fluid? And furthermore, where do they go to get THEIR hair cut?

I'll tell you my friends! They go to the CIA! The CIA has a good handle on what the American public wants because they go straight to the source. Barbers gather their info, and they get it back to number one by either travelling to get awards and annual reviews, refills on blue fluid or by simply getting their hair cut (even by another barber!).

Now, I'm not passing judgement. All I can say is that you ought to be careful what you say to your barber. I told my barber how I wish there were a few more ice cream shops in my neighborhood. Now there is a Culvers, a Dairy Queen and a Sheridans across the street! I can't eat this much ice cream!
