STEPH DEROSA: I KNOW WHERE YOU CAN GET A HAIRCUT >>>

We took the Thorne Lane exit into Tillicum and after a mile stretch on Union Avenue we had passed about 12 barber shops before reaching Galloping Gertie's. Twelve barber shops within one mile? Are you kidding me? I know Tillicum is primarily an off-base military town filled with young crew-cut men, but TWELVE barber shops? I was thinking 12 dive bars would be more appropriate for a street just off a major military base, don't you?

Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating on the amount of barber shops, but there were at least eight of them.

More important than any haircut, The KAke and I were jonesin' for a liquid lunch, so into Galloping Gertie's side door lounge we went. Right away Arlette greeted us like we were old friends, and old friends is what we quickly became.

Check out what I found here.
