- to put another twist on things, in deep redneck country short hair is
- a "sure sign" that someone is gay. and we all want to avoid the
- appearance of evil now don't we? (1/2 :^)

- naah, decaf's boring. wouldn't be a bad idea to lighten up. hair
- length doesn't -mean- anything unless the individual -wants- it to
- mean something. and you can't tell what that is unless you ask, which
- might just be another way to make some friends. (if you do it right.)
-
- works for me anyway. i get mostly nice comments about my hair & have
- 2 friends who originally approached me about it. i -did- get one
- "You look like a girl!" objection, so i grew a goatee. ;^)>
