Barber Chair...

  Last week, I went to my favorite barber shop for a cut.
  Tyler and Baker Barber Shop on 18th and Ali.
      My barber, Joe,  has cut my hair for over 15 years, and I have been a customer of Tyler and Baker's since back in the day when Mr. Tyler and Mr. Baker ran the shop.
  The difference this time was that I now have a beard and I asked Joe to trim it for me...
 … for the first time.
  As he started to lean the chair back, I muttered "whoa!" and my brother Wayne,  who was  sitting across from me, tried to  unsuccessfully muffle a giggle...you see, I have never experienced the sensation of sitting back in a barber chair in my 58 years on this earth.
   It kinda startled  me, (ahem )
  When I told Joe, he laughed .  He asked if I was comfortable, and continued trimming.
  It is strange how something as simple as being tilted back in a barber chair can be such a new experience, huh?
