Debating barbers

THE EAR - The Freeman

BARBERS' QUARREL. Two barbers in a small barbershop in Labangon debated on the pros and cons of the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement between the US and Phl. When the debate became heated and gutter words were used, the two barbers' customers had to get down the barber chairs fearing violence and waited for the "debaters" to cool off.

 

LAUGHTER. An Ear informer said the two barbers created laughter among the onlookers. They cooled off when their customers got off the chairs with their cape (“kupo”) on.
