[STORY] The closest shave

A man enters a barber shop for a shave. While the barber isfoaming him up, he mentions the problems he has getting aclose shave around the cheeks.
"I have just the thing," says the barber taking a smallwooden ball from a nearby drawer. "Just place this betweenyour cheek and gum."
The client places the ball in his mouth and the barberproceeds 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 tomorrowlike everyone else does."
