Beat season? Like, as in the '50s?

[Monkey Face]

Since I was always behind the times, I was my dad’s “prize beat chick.” He loved it. (And I still miss him even after all these years!)

hi ho the dairy-o

LOL — I only remember the tail end of “beat”, just before “hippie.” And “beat” was not hip in the midwest town where I grew up. (Even the hippie wasn’t hip — he was just weird.)

[Monkey Face]

I take it that’s a hint as to where hard-boiled eggs come from?....

Humor me...I’m having a bad week. ;o]

[sionnsar]

No, no... In our group it was “farmoutman” — Valley speak before Valspeak.

[sionnsar]

Famer in the Dell? The Famous Farmer? And why not a Gateway or an IBM?

I’m glad my conservative grandparents didn’t let their children become hippies, who knows how I would’ve turned out.

[Monkey Face]

As little tykes, we were glued to the set when “Dobie Gillis” came on. We didn’t understand it, but we laughed at Bob Denver’s pre-pubescent screech of “WORK?”

I’m often asked if I was a hippie, because “everyone was.” I dunno. I thought the flower children were stupid cows and could be misled into all kinds of ugliness. I preferred to be different, and I still am! (But don’t get me started!)

Sure enough...they’re inhabiting the halls of government, now.

[sionnsar]

Shot put.

You shot what?

[Monkey Face]

I have a 5th cousin once-removed who is a Farmer.
You can tell we’re related, just by looking at the two of us! Almost like sisters!

[Tax-chick]

A lower Slobodian egg farmer, but don’t tell anyone. It was just for target practice ...

[sionnsar]

Sure enough...they’re inhabiting the halls of government, now.

That's true enough. And still stupid.

[Monkey Face]

When we did the “farmoutman,” is was really far behind the popular culture of culturing popular leaves.... It was more of an inside joke.

[Monkey Face]

Yep. And most assuredly, they are cow-sheeple. Talk about bovine culture... *sheesh*

[sionnsar]

Bleak times indeed, when one of the better moments was the Beatles’”Revolution.”

[Monkey Face]

Those of us who were still coherently functioning found pleasure in small things that “seemed” normal. In some instances, music did that.

The Beatles outgrew themselves, and so split up. I prefer to think that the smart ones (musicians) quit smoking pot and did something good with their lives. Some did, and are still around. Sir Paul made us all proud!

But some were/are die-hards, and can’t drag themselves out of the anti-culture culture. They’re the ones that the stoners keep voting into office....

I got stock face #47. My look-alikes (whom I've never met) have, over the years:
- Marched in a ZPG parade in SF (ca 1970)
- Worked for an exterminator (ca 1973)
- Had a REALLY good-looking girlfriend (at a time when I had none, ca 1976)
- ... drawing a blank here on the rest. But as recently as this year I heard of another ("It's eerie, you look SO much like him..." Well yes, I do look kind of eerie, no?)
