ok, so after dropping stephan off at school i saw this girl walking toward school, wearing a black cape and outfit, with whitish makeup and black lipstick- and my first thought was....halloween is over- and then it occured to me that this is one of those goth(ic) people who live in permanent halloween- like extras for rocky horror picture show waiting for a remake to break out in need of people who already look the part...truly bizarre- in my day, we didn't have goths- just people who wore hippy beads, peace sign belt buckles, long stringy hair and bell-bottoms that were too long and in tatters......maybe an american flag t-shirt or a tye-dye number........and granny glasses......somehow this image is more optimistic and almost joyous compared to the black-robed people of the night.....the hippie wanna-bes of my day just wanted legalized dope and free love.........and to give peace a chance......
