Barbers have a reputation for being smart people. Whether this reputation is deserved or not has now been called into question because someone has uncovered the fact that 87% of those who are saying Barbers are smart are Barbers.
As
for the other grouping in the above Subject…Tennis Players…I have some
first-hand knowledge of those guys and I say that they are as smart as or
smarter than Barbers because I have participated in at least 12 conversations
where we put our smart heads together and solved the Mid-East Situation.
*************
This week’s brilliant discussion on the courts involved the Coronavirus / Wuhan Virus / Chinese Flu / Novel Coronavirus / COVID-19 / CCP (Chinese Communist Party) Virus / SARS-CoV-2 Virus/Flu/Pandemic and how it has become The Big Excuse for all kinds of businesses to Not Be Responsible for Anything Because the Virus/Flu/Pandemic is Responsible for Everything.
For example, every
time we call a business we have to listen to a Disclaimer about the Virus/Flu/Pandemic
and the Disclaimers are getting longer and longer as the lawyers get more and more
involved.
*************
Back
to my Smart Tennis Players and their Smart Heads, we started giving each other
examples of this Virus/Flu/Pandemic Big Excuse Intrusion…
· Banks:
Because of the Virus/Flu/Pandemic we are sorry that, for the
foreseeable future, we will not be able to pay you interest on the savings
accounts you have with our bank.
· Grocery
Stores: Because of the Virus/Flu/Pandemic we are sorry that, for
the foreseeable future, we will not be able to put the groceries you have just
purchased from us in your shopping bag. Until this crisis has passed we will be
returning your groceries back to our shelves for safe keeping so that others of
our customers (who are also important to us) can shop with us.
· Toll
Roads: Because of the Virus/Flu/Pandemic we are sorry that, for
the foreseeable future, we will not be able to allow you to venture out onto our
Toll Road after you have paid your Toll. We cannot guarantee your safety out
there, and until we can, please make a U-Turn right past the Toll Booth.
*************
I can just see that some of you think I am kidding. I will now give you Conclusive Proof that I’m Not Kidding U. This is a picture of a sign I saw in a store I was giving my money to yesterday…
Don’t ever doubt me.
Would
I kid u?
