Mike went to a barber’s shop and had his hair cut, but when he came out, he was not happy with the result. When his friend Bob saw him, he laughed and said, “What has happened to your hair, Mike”
Mike said, “I tried a new barber’s shop today, because I wasn’t quite satisfied with my old one, but this one seems even worse.”
Bob agreed, “Yes, I think you’re right, Mike. Now I’ll tell you what to do when you go into a barber’s shop next time: look at all the barber’s hair, find the one whose hair looks the worst, and then go straight to him.”
“Why shall I go to him” Mike asked. “But that would be foolish!”
“Oh, no, it wouldn’t,” answered Bob. “Who cut that man’s hair Just think it. So you know he can’t be the worst barber.” Mike thought it would be_____ to go to the barber with the worst hair.
