Long beard has become quite a popular trend during the last years and we can see more and more men opting not to shave their faces for the sake of being more attractive.
The following joke involves an old cowboy who decided to get a clean cut and get rid of his beard.
Eventually, he was quite satisfied with his new looks, but it was something from behind the scenes that he found difficult to handle.
We hope this will give you a good laugh. Read it below.
An old cowboy walks into a barbershop in Dillon, Montana for a shave and a haircut.
He tells the barber he can’t get all his whiskers off because his cheeks are wrinkled from age.

The barber gets a little wooden ball from a cup on the shelf and tells the old cowboy to put it inside his cheek to spread out the skin.
When he’s finished, the old cowboy tells the barber that was the cleanest shave he’d had in years, but he wanted to know what would have happened if he had accidentally swallowed that little ball.
The barber replied, “Oh, you would just bring it back in a couple of days like everyone else does.”

Singer Pink has postponed her Tacoma shows that were to take place on October 17 and 18.
The So What singer announced on social media that the reason for this are “family medical issues.”
“I am so sorry to inform the Tacoma ticket holders that the two shows October 17 and October 18 (tomorrow and Wednesday) will be postponed,” the singer wrote, adding that LiveNation is working on rescheduling the shows. “Family medical issues require our immediate attention. I send everyone my sincerest apologies for any inconvenience this has caused. I am sending nothing but love and health to all.”

Pink‘s Summer Carnival tour was scheduled to make two stops at Vancouver’s Rogers Arena this weekend as well, but the two stops were postponed too. The reason is because the singer suffers from a respiratory infection that left her unable to perform.
“I am deeply sorry to share that I have a respiratory infection and my doctor has advised that I am unable to perform at the Vancouver shows on Friday and Saturday,” Pink wrote in a statement. “Live Nation is working on new dates to reschedule the shows. I am very much looking forward to performing in Vancouver and putting on an incredible show for everyone. In the meantime, I wish everyone good health and am sending lots of love.”
This makes a third cancellation in a row. At the end of September, the 44-year-old axed a show at the Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas due to a “bad sinus infection.”
So far, the Lady Marmalade chart-topper’s tour has seen a number of odd gestures. A fan was seen throwing his mother’s ashes on the stage, and another fan handed her a giant wheel of cheese.
We hope Pink would be able to overcome any medical issues she’s been experiencing recently.

A man’s man and an acting icon, Tom Selleck is one of our favorite Hollywood names. Ever since he took the role of Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I he ensured his place in the film industry.
He started his career as a model who stole women’s hearts and signed for Twentieth Century Fox. This collaboration, however, only lasted until he was drafted to fight in the Vietnam’s war. When he recalls this period of his life, he says, “I am a veteran, I’m proud of it. I was a sergeant in the U.S. Army infantry, National Guard, Vietnam era. We’re all brothers and sisters in that sense.”
After the war ended, he started filming Magnum P.I and found himself into the spotlight once again.
Tom’s childhood was a happy one. He was born in Detroit, Michigan, but grew up in San Fernando Valley, California. His parents were strict but always very supportive of their four children. Tom’s father once told him how “a man is only as good as his word,” and that’s something Tom lived by all his life.
Tom’s acting career only went upwards in the years to come, and after eight seasons of playing detective Magnum, he received numerous awards, among which a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Television Series Drama in 1985. He was also nominated for an Emmy several years in a row.
“The luckiest thing that happened was that I didn’t get a real job until I was 35,” Tom explained.
“When I was 25, I looked 35 but sounded 15. There are a lot of very good actors who make it as younger leading men but don’t graduate — because the audience won’t accept them as grown up.”
Magnum P.I. came at the time when he was almost ready to give up chasing a career as an actor. “I think if Magnum hadn’t worked out, I’d never have worked again in this business,” he shared in an interview with Closer Weekly.
Back in 1971, Tom married model Jacqueline Ray and adopted her son while the two were still married. Their union didn’t last long and Tom blamed his career for the break-up. So when he married his second wive, dancer Jillie Mack, he promised himself he’d never put acting before his family ever again. And he kept the promise. After his daughter Hannah Margaret was born, he quit Magnum and devoted his time to his baby and his wife.
Ever since 2010, Selleck has been a co-star in the television series Blue Bloods where he plays Frank Reagan, the commissioner of the New York City Police Department. The show has been renewed for its 13th season.
Over the course of his career of many years, Selleck has done most of the stunts himself, but as it turns out, this decision has taken its toll and his body isn’t the way it was.
“My back’s kind of messed up,” Selleck shared.
“When you do stunts in movies—I do a lot of them—you’re taking a risk, but you’re also sitting around a lot. So you might do a fight scene, and then you sit in your chair, and it’s not like you have a personal trainer saying, ‘Okay, we’re ready to go, but Tom needs ten minutes of stretching and warm-up.’”
“And I think the price,” he added, “I see it with peers, I talk to them sometimes. You just see the price of all those stunts. They weren’t that hard, but I think it’s the stop-and-go of all that stuff.”
This awesome actor is an awesome human being too. He never considered himself superior over the ordinary people and was always there to offer a helping hand. Being concerned for what the young generations are turning into, he felt the urge to step in and be there for them. Tom founded the non-profit organization Character Counts! Speaking to New York Daily News, he said, “I’ve tried very hard to conduct myself in an ethical way because that’s important to my stability now.”
“I work with exceptional kids,” Tom said, “gang kids, deprived kids, enriched kids, and they all have an astounding sense of entitlement.” Time for Tom to change all that!

Tom is a great fan of nature and outdoors.
The Selleck family owns a 65-acre ranch in California. That’s where Hannah was brought up. She was surrounded by nature and horses since early age and learned how to love and appreciate that kind of life herself. Which is truly amazing.
As for Tom, even at the age of 78, he still isn’t ready to quit his job as an actor and philanthropist. When he isn’t busy being spokesman for the National Fatherhood Initiative and doing his role at the Skin Cancer Foundation, as well as that at the Los Angeles Mission, which helps the homeless, he’s spending his days with his family at their 30 acre avocado farm.
The actor keeps in shape by working on his ranch in Ventura, California. He’s also very passionate about horses, love he has passed down to his daughter.
Selleck has been married to wife Jillie Mack for 35 years. What makes their union one of the strongest in Hollywood is that he always puts his family first.
Speaking to People, Selleck said in 2012, “I quit Magnum to have a family.
“It took a long time to get off the train, but I try very hard to have balance, and this ranch has helped me do that.”
“We both thought it was the best environment for Hannah to grow up,” his wife added.
The famous actor revealed he is writing a book in an interview with TV Insider from last year.
“I’m halfway done. It’s about my 50 years in show business. The tentative title is, Don’t Know Where I’m Going, But There’s No Use Being Late. I doubt if I’ll change it. That’s the story of an actor’s life. You finish your job, a show or a movie, and you’re unemployed. It’s fun. I hope the book is kind of funny because I don’t take myself that seriously. A sense of humor is almost essential for a long career as is a sense of humor in your work,” he said.
One thing that makes Tom special is his mustache. He, however, feels like he ‘got stuck’ with that looks. “After Magnum, I think I went, ‘Oh my gosh!’ I’m going to live with mustache questions for the rest of my life,” he once said.
“Most of the time I got hired they said the mustache is okay, but you gotta shave it off for the job. I was born without it and I’m prepared to work without it.”
Tom once joked that he might have gotten the Blue Bloods job only because of the facial hair.
“Well, it meant a job on Blue Bloods,” he said. “The director said maybe you can play this guy without a mustache. I said, ‘Sure, I was born that way.’”
With mustaches or not, Tom Selleck looks stunning and really looks like he defies age.
Mr. Selleck really is one-of-a-kind.

Beloved Three’s Company star Suzanne Somers left the world following decades long cancer battle.
The show turned her into a household named loved by millions, and fans enjoyed every episode of it, but behind the camera things weren’t the greatest between some of the members of the cast. The relationship between Suzanne and fellow co-star Joyce DeWitt was a rocky one and the two turned into enemies. Sadly, they didn’t manage to make things right for a very long time.
Eventually, they reunited, but it took them years to do so. Before her passing, Suzanne opened up about her relationship with Joyce.
Suzanne Somers was born Suzanne Marie Mahoney on October 16, 1946, in San Bruno, California.
During her childhood, she was abused by her father. The actress once revealed that he called her “stupid” and “worthless.”
“It’s not easy growing up with an alcoholic,” she said.
Sadly, the abuse lasted for quite some time until Suzanne decided she couldn’t put up with it any longer.
“We all have moments where your life can fall apart, or you can use it like judo — using forward energy to win, making the negative work for you,” she said.
Years later, her father asked for her forgiveness and she said that having to endure what she did only made her a stronger person.

Her life took a different turn when she started college, Lone Mountain College, which today is the University of San Francisco. During that time, she was forced to drop out of university because she learned she was pregnant.
Suzanne and the father of her child married and welcomed son Bruce Jr.
At one point, they almost lost Bruce Jr. in a car crash. When he was taken to counseling in order to be able to overcome the nightmares which came with the accident, the therapist understood that Suzanne was in need of therapy too.
“‘He’s fine. You need to stay.’ I said, ‘Why?’” Somers recalled the therapist saying after one year of counseling for her son. “That’s when she said, ‘You’re a walking apology. I’ve never met somebody with such low self-esteem.’”
“I had the craziest, most violent, most unbelievable father,” she said. “I had to do this musical because how do you start out in a closet and end up with the life I have today?”

Suzanne’s life changing moment came when she got a small role in George Lucas’ film American Graffiti. “This is a life-changing moment. Five seconds on film that will never be forgotten,” she said, adding that Lucas told her, “Everybody will always remember the mysterious blonde in the Thunderbird.”
She was offered the role in Three’s Company after she got a gig at The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, where she began reading poetry in front of a national audience every month.
The role of Chrissy Snow helped Suzanne make a name for herself.
At some point, when she reached a celebrity status, Suzanne caused a stir when she asked for a 500% raise. Instead of the $30,000 she made weekly, she asked for $150,000, the same amount of money her male co-star John Ritter earned at the time.
Instead of meeting her demands, Suzanne Somers was fired.
“I’ve been playing what I think is one of the best dumb blondes that’s ever been done, but I never got any credit,” she told The New York Times the same year. “I did it so well that everyone thought I really was a dumb blonde.”

According to her husband, the production fired her in order to send a warning to the rest of the women who were part of the industry.
“When I got fired, I thought, ‘I should never have asked. Why did I ask? Why did I think I could get paid what men are being paid? Who did I think I was?”‘ she recalled in 2015.
“Rather than thinking, ‘Hey, c’mon. I have the highest demographics of any woman on television. I’m on the No. 1 show. I’m doing the heavy lifting, too,’ I went right into low self-esteem. I hid in my house for a year in absolute grief.”
This made things hard for Suzanne because she had a hard time landing a role. “Here I was on the number one show, and I couldn’t even get an interview because I was considered trouble,” she told CNBC.
Besides being fired, Suzanne needed to finish the fifth season of Three’s Company but was not allowed to talk to anyone on set.
Eventually, Somers’ character of Chrissy was replaced, first by Chrissy’s cousin Cindy Snow, played by Jenilee Harrison, and then by nurse Terri Alden, played by Priscilla Barnes, from 1981 until the show’s end in 1984.
“They painted me as she’s trying to ruin the show,” Suzanne said in 2020. “So, I never talked to anybody on that show ever again. Ever again.”
“We had very different approaches to our careers,” Joyce said of the relationship between her and Suzanne following the show. “We had very different needs. I did not have a child that I was supporting on my own. I didn’t have a business head, so I didn’t understand someone who did.”
The two co-stars reunited after 30 long years on Suzanne’s talk show Breaking Through and got to discuss their different paths in life. “I have relentlessly said that it is my opinion that the only reason Three’s Company is worth remembering is that it created an opportunity for all of us to laugh together, to celebrate joy. It’s a profound gift,” Joyce said on the show.
“You went up against ruthlessness, and it came down,” Joyce said. “What you’ve gone on to do is immeasurable.”
“In a group of serious actors, I probably pissed you all off,” Suzanne concluded.

Following Suzanne’s passing, Joyce DeWitt expressed her grief and paid tribute to her friend.
“My heart goes out to Suzanne’s family,” she told People. “They are a very close family — deeply connected and caring one to the other. I can only imagine how difficult this time is for all of them.”
She added, “I’m sure Suzanne was greeted by Angels into the loving wisdom waiting for all of us on the other side, and I hope that will assist her family’s hearts in healing as they travel through this difficult time.”

Attaching a star on a house or a barn is part of the American tradition we all love, but these stars are far beyond pretty decorations.
For the farmers, the stars represent something more meaningful than items that catch the eye.
In fact, stars sighted above the door at the top of a barn have their roots steeped in historical significance and date back over a century.
These bold stars, that can be made out of wood or metal, are also known as Pennsylvania stars or primitive stars as they can be traced back to at least 1820s Pennsylvania. They became even more popular after the American Civil War, and nowadays, they are usually associated with prosperity and good fortune.
Different colors of the stars represent different things and have their own meaning and significance.

Although their practical significance have diminished over the years, the tradition continues as a symbol of culture and heritage.
Brown stars stand for friendship and strength, while white stars tell of purity and energy. If you see a violet star, meanwhile, it means holiness. The blue or black color are supposed to provide protection for the farm whose barn the star beautifies.
The green stars are symbols of growth and fertility for the crops growing on the farm, while bright yellow stars speak of love of man and the sun.
German-American farmers believed that positioning the stars at the very top of barns to ward would keep them safe from evil spirits and would help increase the chances of a good harvest.

Sometimes, instead of regular stars, people place ‘hex stars’ that began appearing in the 1950s.
According to the Kuztown Folk Festival, it was a man by the name of Milton Hill who started the transition from barn star to hex star in 1952.
During the late 1950s, a Pennsylvania Dutch folk painter named Johnny Ott began attaching superstitious meanings to his signs because he discovered that they sold better that way. It wasn’t long before these hex signs found their way to different countries of the world.

Luckily, the girls have since been found, but the bizarre circumstances around their disappearance are still being investigated.
Before vanishing, the sisters were spotted at a Columbus Burger King with a woman named Mikaela Harrell. According to the New York Post, this woman’s relationship with the girls remains unknown.
Following their abduction, an Amber Alert was issued by the local authorities. Along with the description of the girls, they also released a description of the vehicle Harrell was driving, a 2011 Honda CRV SUV that was a blue/gray color.
However, authorities were alerted that the girls were later transferred into another vehicle, a Gold 2004 Lexus. Luckily, the licence plate numbers were also included in the alert.
By the next morning, Monday October 16, the girls were found safe and sound, as per a statement from the Columbus Police Department. “As of Monday, October 16, 2023, at approximately 11:30 am, both children have been located in the area of South Georgia and are safe,” the statement read. “The investigation is ongoing, and charges could be forthcoming for those involved in the abduction.”
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) confirmed that Harrell, who is a person of interest, had a criminal record relating to previous drug offences. She had been convicted of possession of methamphetamine and was on parole from August 2007 to August 2016.
However, she’s not the only person who is believed to be involved in the girls’ abduction.
The second person of interest is the sisters’ mother, Kaila Spires.
The investigation is ongoing.
We are glad the girls weren’t injured and are now safe.

Education is not about learning facts, but about training the mind to think. Sadly, our education system sometimes fails to let students think outside the box or nurture their creativity.
The following story is just a joke that tends to make you laugh, but at the same time, it speaks a lot about what education should be all about, and that’s curiosity, creativity, and occasional laughter.
A first grader named Johnny wasn’t interested in the lesson so his teacher asked him what the problem was.
The boy replied: “I’m too smart for first grade. My sister, who is in third grade, is less intelligent than me. I think I’m in the wrong class.”
The teacher then took Johnny to the principal’s office.
While Johnny waited in the hallway outside, the teacher informed the principal of the situation.
“The boy would take a test,” the headmaster informed the instructor, “and if he didn’t do well, he would be sent back to first grade to learn appropriate behavior.”
Continue…
Johnny decided to take part in the test after being brought in and informed of its specifications.
“What is 3 + 3?” you ask the student.
Johnny: “6”
The teacher asked again, “How much is 6 x 6?”
Johnny: “36”
The student was tested on everything the principal thought a third-grader should know.
After glancing at the teacher, the principal declared, “I think Johnny can go to third grade.”
“Can I ask him a few questions?” the teacher asked.
“What does a cow have four of and I only have two?”
After a short pause, Johnny said, “Legs.”
“What do you have in your pants and I don’t?” continued the teacher.
The teacher’s eyes widened noticeably, but Johnny replied, “Pockets”.
“What does a dog do when a person steps on it?” continued the lecturer.
Johnny: “Pants”
“What has the letters F and K in it and means great excitement,” asked the teacher.
Johnny: “Fire truck.”
“Put Johnny in fifth grade,” the principal told the instructor, “I missed the last four questions myself.”
