The ink’s not dry on Idaho Gov. Dirk Kempthorne’s nomination papers to be Interior Secretary, and folks are already cracking wise on the man who bounced a $111 check for a haircut.

“Now that’s what I call FANCY!” writes reader KM. And from reader KC: “Do you mean to say that the hair cut displayed in your picture of Gov. Kempthorne is what $111 buys in Boise? Dude, go to the Hair Cuttery in DC! For $14 you can’t possibly look worse.”

And my favorite: “You mean he paid $111 to get a haircut? Which one?”

All right, nobody sent that one in. It’s just my favorite haircut joke.
