Skinheads don't smile.

So, Mrs. Eudamonia is having an issue with my latest expression of Objecitivism and vanity.

I promised myself a while back, that if I did not get my maternal grandfather's head of hair, that I *was not* going to be "Comb Over Boy".

Well, my hair starting thinning.

So, facing reality squarely, I broke out the razor and finished the job.

I love it.
She hates it.

Her reaction: it makes me look like a skinhead.

My response: it makes me look like a bad-ass, it's *way* better than a comb over, and !!!skinheads don't smile!!!.


So, here's your chance to chime in.

Mrs. Eudaimonia: right or wrong?

    Ya know... I'm going to sound like a girl now... I left the Premiere saying "I need to get Rick's haircut." It was a few months ago. What happened between then and now?

      The style is called a Julius Caesar.
      It is technically a comb-over.

      What changed was I moved.
      Back in the Peoples Republic of Connecticut, I went to a barbershop in Oakville, Salvatore and Sons.
      It was like walking onto the set of "A Bronx Tale".
      I got to speak broken Italian, have an espresso, and get my haircut.
      It was a "manly man" joint.
      It was also a kind of time warp.

      I have found no place in Cheyenne comparable.
      So... razor time.

    I don't know....I think I'd want to have a massive combover for a month or so, just to enjoy really making a statement.

    Looks good, by the way. My hair is thicker than a bad toupe...and it looks like a bad toupe if I don't get it cut often.

    If your wife wants you to grow it back out, do so.

    Then take the front and curl it for the "kewpie doll" look. She will then quickly shave it for you :)
