The Real Salon Owners of Albany County

Almost everything about this story is comically ridiculous: that a salon owner would be bounced from a restaurant connected to a rival salon in Latham because of some feud between the salon owners, that the bounced would complain to the TU about it, that the story would prompt a torrent of comments. It sounds like a Bravo or E! "docusoap" (or whatever they call those shows like the Real Kardashians Flipped Out of New York Project). [TU Tablehopping] [TU]
