Gray Hair

I was in a meeting with other secretaries that work here. One of them graciously brought some eclairs (still a little frozen) to the meeting. We were passing them around and talking about gray hairs. One of the secretaries said that she pulled two out... I, being the smart person I am, told her and everyone else that was listening that pulling a gray hair out is like cutting the head off a Hydra, for each one you pull out, two grow in its place. I received a very confused/puzzled look from everyone. Finally another secretary started laughing. She told me that the one secretary was talking about pulling out a couple of eclairs and setting them down to thaw. Eclairs.... Gray Hair.... now that DOES sound similar! ;o)
