Aerodynamic Sheriff
Maybe you've noticed Guilford Sheriff BJ Barnes' iconic goatee.

It's gone.
Why?
Thursday at a Jail Advisory Committee meeting, Barnes faced a few county administrators and commissioners who wore that expression that says "there's something different about you."
"It's getting loose up here," Barnes said, as he pointed to top of his head. Then Barnes rubbed is now-bare chin. "And it's getting white down here."
"I thought you looked younger," said Vice Chairwoman Kay Cashion.
"To be honest with you Kay, that was the idea," Barnes said of his sleek new look.
