Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

Much ma and vibage to Hec, JZ and the Weenie.

And David, I know your mind is on other things, but I read this in the paper this morning and thought of you: [link]

The question is quite simple: Do we like short hair on women? And the answer is quite predictable: No, we do not. It seems masculine and practical and deliberately asexual. We like the conventionally feminine. Sorry. We can't help this. And there's no sense in lying about it.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Now, please send your hurt, indignant and offended emails to our editors: style@globeandmail.com.

Dear Editors of The Globe and Mail,

Do we like predictable, sexist columnists? No, we don't. It seems awfully lazy to take a personal preference, stick in a few hot-button gender issues and then toss off a few dazzling female celebrities who can manage to break the stereotype while staying in this asshole's spank bank.

I'd write more but I'm off to get a pixie cut at my stylist's.

Sincerely,
Me

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

makes out with Cash and buys her a pony

Oooooh - could I come, too? Depending on things, of course?

Of course, goofus!

thinking very, very good thoughts for you and the Halloweenie. Having BTDT with regard to the bleeding and the unexpected hospital stay, I know how scary it can be. It's great that you're already at 28 weeks, though, and I hope you can get back to an uneventful pregnancy soon.

Thanks, Fi. I was just thinking of you this morning.

Hey, maybe Hec and JZ like pie...

We do! We are pie-likers.

Oh, the poor thing. This is awful. It's hard enough to not eat all day. It's so much harder when you're pregnant. Your blood sugar is more reactionary, and just oooof. I'm so glad she didn't have to go until after midnight.

Everytime she saw somebody munching on TV she'd start railing, "You dirty stinking...Eater!"

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

We do! We are pie-likers.

I begin to sense a pie plan, assuming JZ is home and up to it tomorrow.

eta: Hec, do you all have the animaniacs and pinky and the brain dvds yet? If not, I can lend you mine for a while if you would like, to help entertain JZ while she is taking it easy.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

The question is quite simple: Do we like short hair on women? And the answer is quite predictable: No, we do not. It seems masculine and practical and deliberately asexual. We like the conventionally feminine. Sorry. We can't help this. And there's no sense in lying about it.

Letter to the Editor:

Eff you. My cheekbones are high and defined and most women would kill to be able to have the features I do to pull of shorter hair. You don't like it, don't look at me. But I'll bet you can't not.

Signed, Has Short Hair and is VERY Feminine.

PS. Jackass.

Good Morning!

That's thoughtful, Lee. Why don't you bring them up on Sunday. I expect JZ is going to be sitting around for at least several days next week, if not more.

I will do that.

I wish I were closer so that I could come and help and give love and cook lovely vegetarian things so that JZ AND David could rest.

I'll just have to send virtual love.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Dear Russell Smith,

No, length doesn't always matter: There isn't a hair length around that could make you physically attractive, and now your emotional unattractiveness is a matter of public record.

Oh, wait, were you talking about me?
