(With apologies to Mark)There were ten men who had ten wiveswho showed their long hair at the office to ten other guys.The ten office guys trimmed their ten wives hair,who showed it off at church to ten other men there.So...Men, wives, office guys,plus church going admirers of office guys wives,how many synthetic wigs will the population of 24,000 buy?(Sigh)JerkyFleaRelated Link:JerkyFlea's Celebrity Hair Spray

There is know way (he,he,he...) of knowing how many wigs were purchased. Anyone in the town, except the 10 women known to have long hair (unless they cut it), could potentially be a person who could reasonably and comfortably wear a wig. Also, anyone in the town could buy any number of wigs, even if they don't wear them themselves...Okay, now that I have taken it waaaay too seriously by analyzing it, this was a great funny, Jerky Flea!> (With apologies to Mark)> There were ten men who had ten wives> who showed their long hair at the office to ten other> guys.> The ten office guys trimmed their ten wives hair,> who showed it off at church to ten other men there.> So...> Men, wives, office guys,> plus church going admirers of office guys wives,> how many synthetic wigs will the population of 24,000> buy?> (Sigh)> JerkyFlea
