I do have to admit, though, I like men with short hair. No matter what the guys on tv have, no matter what the guys everywhere else have, I like short hair. I just think it looks better. I can get used to the longer, "in" style, because a lot of guys I know have gone through the "i just have to have long, 'cool-looking' hair" phase, but it's not the same. I don't know why I get this. Something about that "sharpness" that also makes me think suits are neat. I hope I'm not a product of the advertisement industry... -- bee@ms.uky.edu, ukma!bee, bee@ukma.bitnet Animals who are not penguins can only wish they were. -the _Chicago Reader_
