Email Print Tell us your story Comments (7)

An Arlington man was sitting in the car with his girlfriend (outside the South Park Apartments in the 2400 block of E. Park Row) when another man - identified as the woman's ex-boyfriend - spotted the two and shot at them.

One bullet clipped the coif of the woman and seriously wounded the man, who was transported to the hospital. Officers are still looking for the shooter.

coif of the woman

???

This nun left her boyfriend for a new guy?! Needs elaboration here (likely not a nun, but that's the first thing I think of when I hear/read 'coif').

coif is often the polite term for what is more suitably referred to as "Architectural Hair"

It's the south guys. Try to remember that.

Crud, Doyle, looks like I should have used "coiffure" - I actually thought they meant the same thing, but - dagnammit! - Merriam Webster preferred usage indicates I was wrong.

Oh, John. Don't let Doyle win so easily. That's no way to launch a weekend.

Sounds less argumentative coming from you, though, Jason.

Besides, I'm having a splendid hair day and feeling magnanimous. (Particularly with a beer in front of me.)

<sigh> I'm slipping.

But I must admit, his is a much funnier image.
