We all get older but some of us show signs well before our time. Unfortunately, that is the case for my wife who was born with her family's curse of gray hair that starts showing up in the twenties. I have been known to, on occasion, reach over and pluck a wiry gray hair from her head. I have also been known to, once in a blue moon, pluck a wiry stray hair from the head of anyone in the near vicinity, gray or not.
Sitting at the kitchen table the other night I reached over and yanked an abnormally long, stray hair from Sam's head. He asked, "Was it gray?"
