The Redhead Radar Story of the Day

Sitting at lunch alone, an old man with a long beard asks me, “What do you call the color of your hair?” I reply, “Red, of course.” He quickly corrects me saying, “I think Rustic is a much more fitting name,” and begins to walk away. Suddenly the man pauses, turns around and yells, “Is it true redheads are more temperamental than the rest of us?” I smile and nod my head. He smiles in return and continues on with his day.
