It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

Hahahahaha. Yeah, I checked that site out when Kathy first posted it, but that just ain't my style. It simply slows down comprehension, and loses detail in the translation, just for the sake of novelty.

Barbara's style of writing, on the other hand, speeds up comprehension, and enhances detail. It loses nothing in the translation. It's a superior form of communication, in my opinion.

Love,
Wayne

But the thing that's funny, Wayne, is that this is (purportedly) how today's 12 year olds write and spell. They are the future of our society. :shock:

I realize that. Hopefully they'll outgrow it. LOL.

Kids have always worked hard to be different. Their choice of dress codes is another prime example. Can you imagine them dressing that way after they grow up and enter the cold, cruel world?

Those baggy britches that the boys wear these days, for example, are something that I would never dream of wearing. Back when I was in high school, though, we were just as radical. For example, most of the boys wore neatly creased Levi jeans, with big, fancy belt buckles, and spiffy looking cowbow boots, (I usually wore a pair of blue suede boots, for example, and my belt buckle had a mosaic of a thunderbird on it). I don't do that anymore. These days I wear "tumble-dry" Levi jeans, and comfortable hiking boots, that don't pinch my toes like those damn cowboy boots. I do still wear that "thunderbird" belt buckle every day, though.

Hahahahahaha. You're right, society is probably doomed.

P S Just curious--does anyone else still wear anything that they wore back in high school?

I started school in the 60's which made my Jr. High and High school years being in the 70's. I have noticed that the girls' fashions are repeating themselves. My mother always told me if I hung onto something, within 20 years the style will repeat itself.

The flared, decorated, patched/sliced/ripped pants were one of the styles to return. Hiphuggers are another. The creativity is somewhat changed but the idea is still the same.

The homemade/fringed/swede purses are another, along with off-the-shoulder and pheasant style blouses. I'm sure there are other similarities but you get my point.

It's funny how history repeats itself, to coin a phrase.

Love,
Mars

I have had long hair for years that I just threw into a twist or a bun. One of my daughter in laws decided I needed a hair makeover last fall. She took me to her favorite beauty shop and let them lose on me.. cut all the hair off and did two colors.. I really like it but it is a lot of work to keep up compared to just throwing it into a bun.. and the expense of the cuts is outrageous...

But to answer the question... do we still wear anything we wore in high school... I realized from looking at a very OLD picture that my "new" hairdo is my 1950s/60s hairdo...LOL
