Are there many piano techs who are veterans?

[Dean May]

Actually in this free country of ours the government protects our precious
hairs that come from various parts of our body from being hacked by
unqualified scissor wielders.  A special license is required to be a
hairdresser to cut the ordinary external hairs. But that isn't quite enough
for snipping hair out of our noses or ears. That requires a special
certification and license. It's for our own good and safety, of course.

Alan,

 

Yea, that comes with middle (and advancing) age... every month or so when
I'm standing with backlighting in just the right way, my wife notices some
new rogue hairs emitting from the ear area, and is kind enough (partly out
of self-interest of course, because she doesn't want to have to look at
them!) to take out her Swiss Army Knife scissors and do a little lawn
mowing. (I do my own eyebrows and, er, nose hairs). 

 

Pardon me for sharing this, which may be way too much information for some -
but it's the only way to keep undergrowth in control. If you don't have a
willing wife, there are undoubtedly professionals that will provide this
service : ) called hairdressers.

 

So despair not, there is an answer to this little problem. And frankly,
sometimes I'm led to wish more people would avail themselves of it!

No ear problems except old(ish)-age hearing losses and increasing ear
hair--what's up with THAT?

Dianne,

Yes, I'm a Viet Nam Era veteran with severe tinnitus. So add 1 to the list.
