She cuts my hair as well as most barbers I havetried. One day, as I was preparing to get into the shower, shenoticed that the haircut from the day before was not up to herusual high standards, which made her a little upset. She grabbeda pair of scissors to trim that one spot so that it would blendin with the rest. That's all there is to the real story.

They might say it with such certaintythat some people believe it without hesitation. The sun has beenrising for at least thousands of years and any idea of the sunnot rising tomorrow is totally absurd.
