Poor guy, nice of yu ta do dat 4 Gran.
 
 Now that you are not having to constantly hold your head forward
 from the weight of hair, do you find your self inadvertently cramming your chin in your chest?
 
 Very nice thing to do for Grandma.

Next, it's shirts with a collar. Then trade the jeans for khakis, and get some Bass Wejuns with a matching belt.

I'd say if your grandma likes it, it will be worth it. You can grow it back, and get a few tattoos anytime. ;-)

...are items you will never find on my feet nor my shoulders.  No Izod shirts(with or without multiple collars), no Argyle socks, no Gucci shades, nope.  Not gonna do it.

There's just a bit too much Californian in me to go straight.  Sure, there may be a few of em' out there but this cat will always know the difference between "Yuppie" and "Yippie".

Matt, in 1964 or so, they were even wearing preppie clothes in California, and there were no hippies yet. (or maybe just a few in SF).

My hair was the same length as the Beatles, but I never went fully tie-died or anything. Went to college, worked for corporations, tried to fit in.
BTW, the Sperrys are not as nice as the Bass, but they are good shoes.
These days I'm more LL Bean type, or even Walmart jeans. I care less about the look, but where I work, it's khakis and polo shirts as almost a uniform. On Fridays, jeans. Yee-ha.

But you fly that flag, Matt, and right on.
