    > You seem to blend in easily with the crowd of bohemian youth ... then you realise it's because that your clothes that were in/ then out / and have come back into fashion

    Oy Vey!

    When one starts muttering phrases such as the one above... and wanting a good bagel.

    When you realize it's fifty years since the Summer of Love and do you have the energy to go to the concert on June 21st in Golden Gate Park at the Conservatory of Flowers.

    That's when it hits you smack dab in the forehead like a toke of Headband at dawn.

    And yes, that's another old hippy thing to do.

    Greet the dawn with pipe in hand waking and baking the entire neighborhood.

    Cheers!

    Just wanted to say I dig your Kandinsky avatar. I'm a huge fan...he's my favorite abstract expressionist. I pattern a good deal of my own drawings from his stuff.

    Cheers.

    All of the chicks who think that you're a fox are 73.

    You have to assure the kids that MC5 were a rock band not an underground rapper.

    When... you remember going to various bookstores in the city to find out about upcoming protests and events. Sometimes you had to be part of the inner circle to find out about news on the grapevine. Now there are no underground movements and everyone's "tweeting" it. Smh

    When... my generation's young hippies were getting up off their butts, going outside in the real world, to effect change. This generation's young hippies are clicktivists and you find it unsettling.


    When... you used to wear patchouli oil, but now you wear linament.

    All those Young chicks are Old ladies now - it's a shocker!! .... and then even worse - one looks in the Mirror - ... somehow "Doh" doesn't quite capture the sad realisation - (Just me then????)

    Well, I use oy vey and oy vey iz mir.
    And I know from bagels.

    And I was at the show on the 21st.

    Instead of wake and bake, I have quarterly psychedelic tune ups.

    = When the history programmes of yester-year,
    seem like they are the memories of yester-day
    but they're not :(
    Still, "The Beat goes on" :)

    Oh my! I haven't laughed so hard for a long time. Possibly from when I was part of this thread in 2012/13. At least I think that was me!
