quote: CINCINNATI, Ohio (AP) -- Apollo moon mission astronaut Neil Armstrong has threatened to sue a barbershop owner who collected Armstrong's hair after a trim and sold it for $3,000. Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, used to go to Marx's Barber Shop in Lebanon about once a month for a cut. That stopped when he learned that owner Marx Sizemore had collected his hair clippings from the floor and sold them in May 2004 to a collector. (...)

Yeah, that will teach those barber capitalists!

Labor creates all value. That and Neil Armstrong being able to grow hair and all.

Actually, going to Lebanon once a month to get a haircut ? Isn't that a little costly ? But well, if you are used to go to the moon a little 12 hour flight isn't worth mentioning

So, I live walking distance to Vienna, and i bet you can't get a decent Cafe mit schlag (or whatever the hell they call it) anywhere in town. Theres a nice vegetarian restaurant there though. The main street is called Maple Avenue, not the Ringstrasse.

Whoever bought it... man, that's kinda creepy. It's almost as creepy as those used women's panties on sale.

Actually, there was such a case in my hometown some years ago. Yes, it was after I left town...

Womens underwear kept disappearing from people's clothes-lines, particularly in one neighbourhood. Police couldn't do anything, but people started lying in wait in their gardens at night - and soon enough, they caught the guy red-handed.

A subsequent police search of his home uncovered several large plastic bags filled with all sorts of women's unmentionables. Big story locally, but strangely enough none of the women contacted the police to reclaim their lost items...

The lawsuit will fail, I think...AFAIK, once hair is removed at a barber shop it becomes public property...don't ask me why I know that...or if its in fact true...
