There's a place here that frys up the BEST fish n chips I've ever had. a BIG ol black dude. His sweat drips into the fryer but once you've had his fish, you find a way to justify the sweat!

Seasoning...its kinda like when the cool doesnt wash his hands after using the bathroom

You seem to mention that word a lot, is everyone with long hair a hippy?

It all turned upside-down in the '80s when country boys with rusty Chevys on cinder blocks grew their hair long , but the fashion in San Francisco gay neighborhood became crew cuts , jeans , and flannel shirts .

I keep my head mostly shaved. So I'm no hippy. View attachment 111032But I'm letting the whiskers go. Maybe in a year I might need to trim the face. I don't go grey, I go white!

I've tried to grow a long " hillbilly " beard , but it's all uneven .

A few years ago during a long recuperation l discovered that 1/4 inch , mow when hits 1/2 works for me . 30 seconds after retirement, it's coming back .

I got sooooo much ear hair that I can do a comb over!

I just brush mine over my hear aids.

Another reminiscing session. In the early 70s, the hippie would gather at the carousel in Griffith Park, in L.A. Any of us in the surrounding divisions would be sure to pack our riot helmets, cause at 1600 hrs the call would go out for a tactical alert. As my area was adjacent to Hollywood, we would respond . Once there the battle lines were drawn and the melee was on. Hippies looked forward to it as much as we did. Damn Imiss those days!
