"JohnBoy" a No-Show to His Own Inauguration Ceremony
Troubled Local Misses Out on Being Hair Consultant
November 16, 2002
MANITOU SPRINGS, CO -- The Hair Consultant inauguration of the web site regular known as
"JohnBoy" was cancelled when JohnBoy himself failed to arrive at his own
ceremony at Spice of Life Café this morning.
According to reports, the two agreed to meet at 8 a.m. at the popular
Manitou Springs hangout, but at 8:03 a.m. when Steve arrived, JohnBoy
was nowhere in sight. In fact, the café was completely empty of customers.
JohnBoy's no-show was a devastating turn of events for the emotionally
troubled Manitou Springs resident, because later that day Steve swore-in
Colorado Springs friend Rain Thrower as his new Hair Consultant.
"Maybe JohnBoy slept in. I don't know." explained Steve, "I gave him a
chance and was ready to make him my Hair Consultant, but he missed out!
Oh well."
After learning that his tardiness cost him the opportunity of a lifetime,
JohnBoy protested in a public statement on the Friendship Board, "I guess
I was supposed to be at the (S)pice this morning at 8 am, but I was sleeping.
Of course, Steve never contacted me to let me know if we were on for Sat. I
heard he waited about 5 minutes and "left in frustration". We are on Manitou
time Steve, NOT New York time."
"I'm disappointed that he didn't show up. Windows of opportunity open and close and JohnBoy missed out." reflected Steve, "I don't want to hear his whinning!"
To the disappointment of many, JohnBoy would have been celebrated as the first
male Hair Consultant in history. To date, there are have been ten Hair Consultants
in the past four years - all of which have been female.
