Hair I Go Again...

I saw an infomercial the other day for this new personal vehicle called the "Trikke" which is this three-wheeled device that you stand on and it moves by shifting your body weight from side to side. It was like those butt-scooters they had when we were kids. It's like the new Razor Scooter and skateboard in the new X-Game on ESPN. It was kind of creepy but looked kind of fun. I also thought that the Tony Little Gazelle looked fun, but we all know that was just the temptation of the devil.

I don't understand how salons/barber shops are required to have punny names. Was there legislation that I don't know about? You know what I'm talking about. How can I get a haircut at some place called "Headlines", "The Upper Cut", "A Cut Above", "Kut-N-Up" or "Hair It Is". If you ever need a bad pun and style, you can always find one in your area. I also don't understand why salon owners think it's edgy to use Ks for Kuts and Klips and Klippers. Ks aren't nearly as edgy as Xs or Zs so I think it's weird that all the Cs are replaced by Ks. There is one Hair & Nail place by my parent's house called "Follicles" which I find so weird and so gross that I vow never to go there. Well, I probably won't go there because I go to BoRics. I wonder if Bo and Ric are lovers and started a barber shop chain. That would be a great story. Anyway, I admit that I get my hair cut at BoRics. It's not that I'm cheap. I would pay more for a real haircut and style, and I've tried it, but i get the same cut for a lot less at BoRics. The problem is that I have thin, fine hair and so there's not much I can do. One time I went to a real salon and got a cut and style. Seriously, the russian hair stylist (which I tend to call a hair dresser which is so 1890) ratted out my thin, fine hair until I had this blonde, Einsteinian, wispy, puffy crap on my head. It was awful. I kept it for three days and then just started combing it the way I always did. On time when I was in college, my hair was getting long so I decided to cut it myself. So I cut my bangs to get it out of my eyes. Well, I cut my hair wet, so it was longer and stretched out and it was cut a little shorter than I expected. It turned out that my haircut was the same as Jim Carrey in Dumb & Dumber. I thought it was awesome. It grew out quickly enough and I fixed it, but it was an awesome experience. If I had a salon I would call it Hairy Potter and the Sorcerer's Comb. Awesome.

You'll never guess what I just added to my Netflix Queue: Ned and Stacey, Season One. You may not remember Ned and Stacey, but it was a show starring Thomas Hayden Church of "Wings" and Debra Messing of "Will and Grace". Actually, it was like the precursor to W&G. It was about a man who wants to get ahead in his company so he sets up this sham marriage. It was awesome. Also, if you watch N&S it has the same set for their apartment as W&G. Strange... I wonder if "My Two Dads" is on DVD yet.

I just watched "Kathy Griffin: My Life On The D-List". I'm obsessed with KG. I love her. I love her husband Matt. I love Jessica (who can do anything but has almost no emotional response). I love Kathy's Gays. I love everything about it.
