He showed me the back of my hair early into it by using a hand mirror and that was basically it. There really wasn't much to look at so I just gave him the standard 'Looks good!' response and sorta drifted back off into space. Then he was done, spun me around, and I saw the mutilation.

It can't be that bad if a barber was doing it, can it? I know sometimes I feel uncomfortable with a hairstyle but strangers seeing me wouldn't think twice, so it HAS to be bad if someone who doesn't know you thinks so.<br><br>I went to this Vietnamese lady one time and I was still undecided. As I was looking through the book for ideas she was already half way into my haircut!<br></blockquote><br><br>vkimoNov 21, 2014View
14066Peanuts return to the big screen!Schulz[...'s] greatest disappointment [was] the name "Peanuts," forced on the fledgling cartoonist by the syndicate editor when they first agreed to buy his strip."It's totally ridiculous, has no meaning, is simply confusing — and has no dignity. I think my humor has dignity." <br><br><br><a href="http://seattletimes.com/html/books/2001857267_peanuts15.html">http://seattletimes.com/html/books/2001857267_peanuts15.html</a>shakin steakNov 21, 2014View

14064Disney's Cinderella is back.Watching the second trailer makes me feel like there's no reason to see the movie. They tell the whole story and show all the characters right there.<br>shakin steakNov 21, 2014View
