An old cowboy walks into a barbershop for a shave and a haircut.
He tells the barber he can’t get all his whiskers off because
his cheeks are wrinkled from age. The barber gets a little wooden ball from a cup on
the shelf and tells the old cowboy to put it inside his cheek to spread out the skin.
When he’s finished, the old cowboy tells the barber that was the cleanest
shave he’d had in years, but he wanted to know what would have happened if he had
accidentally swallowed that little ball. The barber replied,
‘Just bring it back in a couple of days
like everyone else does.’
