damn...caught.

ima cutting my hair as soon as i get home.  after i stop by the 
hippest store in town and gettin me some of dem baggy pants.

actually, i feel kinda caught in the middle.  i got into music as a 
punk rocker (1980ish), and took shit from the 'old hippies'.  Now as 
i'm the aging one, the belligerent youngsters are stealing the 
thunder, whatever 'scene' they're into.  I guess it's cool that they 
can die their hair green, wear extravagent clothes and tongue 
piercings and not have to worry about getting the holy crap beat out 
of them by walking down a street minding their own business.  Some of 
us old fogies actually went through that.

What this has to do with looping, ya got me.

Saw 'Hi Fidelity' this last weekend.  Enjoyed the two punk rock kids 
that John Cusack tries to pidgeonhole their music tastes based on 
their looks, and they totally do a 180 on him.  Seems like a nice 
side effect of this music/technology/genre splitting/fashion 
explosion that we're having is that you REALLY can't judge the book 
by it's cover anymore...
