For $12, a guy can get his hair cut at the Great Clips at the Princeton Shopping Center. OK, make that $15 including tip.

You know that the left is feeling threatened, when they have already started trying to tear down Fred Thompson. And he isn’t even in the race yet….
Analysis: Potential US presidential candidate Fred Thompson’s strength is his style
They describe Thompson as having a laid-back, guy-next-door nature that puts people at ease and makes anyone feel comfortable around him. At the same time, they say he has a commanding presence with his imposing 6-foot-5 (1.95-meter) frame, his unmistakable deep voice and his straight-talking way.
That’s the kind of style I like. (On the hair department, I’m sure Fred’s not spending $1250 to coif whatever little hair he’s got.)
The AP’s out on left field (all puns intended) when they say Fred lacks substance. more on that some other time. But it’s not surprising that AP would say that.
After all, they’re still saying it about Ronald Reagan.
