Dreadneck

I can't remember this guy's name, but he works at Smooth's barber shop on Eagle Street in downtown Asheville.

We got to talking one day while I was waiting for a haircut (I don't give Smooth much to work with, but he does a great job with the few follicles I still have) and it turns out he used to cut hair near my hometown of Lenoir. He knew the area pretty well and explained to me that as a man who enjoys both chewing tobacco and reggae music, he considers himself a 'dreadneck.'

Thought that was pretty funny.

Be who you are, without apologies.
