Mechanical Barber


A Canadian salesman checked into a futuristic hotel in
Tokyo Japan .

Realizing he needed a haircut before the next day's
meeting, he called down to the desk clerk to ask if there was a
barber on the premises.

'I'm afraid not, sir,' the clerk told him apologetically, 'but down
the hall from your room is a vending machine that should
serve your purposes.'

Skeptical but intrigued, the salesman located the machine,
inserted $15.00, and stuck his head into the opening, at which
time the machine started to buzz and whirl. Fifteen seconds later the
salesman pulled out his head and surveyed his reflection, which
reflected the best haircut of his life.

Two feet away was another machine with a sign that read,
'Manicures, $20...00'.

'Why not?' thought the salesman. He paid the money, inserted his
hands into the slot, and the machine started to buzz and whirl.
Fifteen seconds later he pulled out his hands and they were
perfectly manicured.

The next machine had a sign that read, 'This Machine Provides a
Service Men Need When A way from Their Wives, 50 Cents.'

The salesman looked both ways, put fifty cents in the machine,
unzipped his fly, and with some anticipation, stuck his manhood
into the opening. When the machine started buzzing, the guy let
out a shriek of agony and almost passed out. Fifteen seconds
later it shut off.

With trembling hands, the salesman was able to withdraw his
tender unit.......... which now had a button sewn neatly on the
end..

Re: Mechanical Barber


F-U-N-N-Y !!!

Especially since about 12 years ago I tried drawing up a device that cuts my hair the same way every time. it's a helmet that uses a vacuum and cutters (like the hand held device that's out there) ... but this is set to give me a "fade" up to a number two at the top... anyway, I never had the proper skills to make the proto type work.

Other "great" ideas that will really have me called 'Easymoney'
1. the revolving hair brush
2. the truck mounted tool box that had a 'crash gate' aka Head ache rack built into the lid, for easy storage.
3. the "omni fan" fan built like a washer machine "tumbler" to give 360 degrees of air.
4. the vacation plant watering pot, seperate water tank and irrigation.
5. a "Hot mop" a mop bucket with two tanks and a heating element that you plug in a 50' extention cord an it heats one side and the other tank catches the dirty water. (wow this was over 15 years ago)

and my personal favorite!
6. Captn crunch should sell "peanut butter crunch" and "crunch berry" in the same cereal with wheat flakes and call it PB&J!

We should turn this in to a thread... "Great Inventions"
