    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    For a cut and colour? Yes, $150.00 is a bit steep... I apprenticed as a hairdresser for a time, so I cut, colour, and style my own hair, and have for years. I only go to the hairdresser if it's something I can't do myself, and in those cases its a drastic change, so it only happens once in a...

    The general decline in standards today

    I know quite a few people who enjoy watching Jersey Shore, and some are the most unlikely of characters. When I asked them the very same question, they all responded that it was "funny to see the drama they get into." My impression was that they were experiencing a kind of schadenfreude...

    Did you notice that too? :D He even got our upward inflections. Very talented indeed!

    What motivates you to do your beauty everyday? Lately I cant find any motivation!

    I'm so glad to hear that. It takes real strength of character to put a good spin on otherwise bad news :) With your lovely make-up, all your students will be telling you how pretty you are!

    Eyebrow question for red heads

    Perfect match! Glad I could help :) (I didn't get dressed this morning either, but I didn't look nearly as chic, haha.)

    Show us your hair do's....

    Gorgeous, Grant Fan! I adore the curl by your temple. You should definitely wear it that way for the ball! :)

    Ladies, this one's for all you flappers out there: A 1930's fashion show in color!

    I loved the hats! Great find, Mario! :)

    Info request on old evening dresses and fur coats

    That thread isn't just for dating items, its about all kinds of clothing details. You should read through it, someone might have owned something similar. I agree with Rue, your mother does have beautiful taste!

    Ahh, now I didn't know that! It makes sense!

    Thanks anyway, but I don't need congratulations. I also don't need to "go into more" of anything where you're listening, because I detest nitpicking and disagreement for the sake of disagreement, both of which are sport to you. I'd rather discuss celestial mechanics with my cat. Well...

    Good man, Tom! You got standards! I feel like that if I go to the hairdresser or have my nails done. I always wash and style my hair before the former, and file, remove polish, and trim the cuticles before the latter. It kind of defeats the purpose, but I can't have them thinking I don't...

    Childhood, Today's Kids...and The Goonies

    I find many things about that lawsuit ridiculous, but what I find most ridiculous is that this woman has already planned out her 3 year old's future. Suppose that child grows up (the horror) and doesn't want to go to an Ivy League university? What if they prefer to become a writer, a...

    I worry about that too, which is why I could never drive one of those vans with solid doors or a car with tinted windows. I really want fuzzy dice for my rear-view mirror, though. I should make myself some. Speaking of, I cleaned my car interior with Armour All, and it looks purrrrdy!

    Childhood, Today's Kids...and The Goonies

    She ought to research what Ivy League admissions officers consider in their candidates - Elementary school doesn't even factor in!

    This coming a little late, but I took a break for life. Just because I wasn't there doesn't mean I don't know about the hippie movement. I can't possibly list all details of it in one post, so what I do say is very simplified. My "credentials" include a methodical study of 20th century pop...

    Aww let me do it! I need things to sew with Beryl (That's my vintage sewing machine's name.) :)

    In the 60s, they would have been known as "activists." :)

    He had some technical reason for it... I don't remember what it was, nor do I have enough auto-mechanical expertise to know if it was a good one or not. He does, and so does my dad, and I tend to trust them. But then again, my brother is insane! Ooh man, why did you say that... I'm going to...

    You're right. Beatniks were artists, poets, and philosophers, akin to a subculture. Hippies are considered counter-culture, and have carried such negative connotations ever since August 8, 1969.
