PAGING HEC - I am to get my hairs cut by the lovely Monica at Zip Zap tonight. Should I continue with my current style? Is there another style I should try that will allow me to have the long bits in my face, as is Right And Proper?
Ginger! My mother-in-law is in P.E.O., finally talked her daughter into joining after I punked out.

Are you sure that wasn't a Simpsons episode?
Who holds back the electric car?
Who makes Steve Gutenberg a star?
We do, we do!
(And now, thanks to Veronica Mars, I get slightly icked whenever I picture Steve Gutenberg.)
that's what I suspected, thanks brenda!
