The Barber's Wooden Ball
A man enters a barber shop for a shave. While the barber is foaming him up, he mentions the problems he has getting a close shave around the cheeks.
- I have just the thing - says the barber taking a small wooden ball from a nearby drawer.
- Just place this between your cheek and gum.
The client places the ball in his mouth and the barber proceeds with the closest shave the man has ever experienced. After a few strokes the client asks in garbled speech:
- And what if I swallow it?
- No problem - says the barber.
- Just bring it back tomorrow like everyone else does.
