Clippers


This simple nail clipper evokes a story about the previous blogger and two of his siblings. It's been told many times over the years. However, if you hadn't heard it yet, ask my older siblings or Mel. They will be glad to tell it again..and again..and again.

Are you kiddin' me. Get outa here!! Anybody that has spent any amount of time around me, Mel and Tom in the same room, at the same time, will know this story. If you don't know it, hang around and you will hear it soon enough.

Tom said...

That's right it's the best story that you will want to here,and it is all true.

...and isn't there something about the milkman and chocolate milk that is usually told along with the clipper story, Tom?

john said...

Oh yes, the milkman story always follows the "clipper" story, and then Mel chimes in with the "breakfast" story ... and they always get more exaggerated with time ...

MEL said...

The truth does not need exaggeration.

Attention non-Barrs: we have our own version of urban legends. If you are totally confused, come to the next reunion and you'll get the whole story...
