The sidewalks gleam like a Bakelite floor. A hired gun jogs into a Fifth Avenue foyer...

...hair stylist does not win them all. One of his best customers over these years has been Pat Buchanan, the White House's remorseless partisan. When Milt felt that the presidential fever was building in Buchanan, he gave him his best dark-horse trim, which is a cut that is short all over, even on the sides and top, and starkly etched at the edges.
