Big and proud return to the classics, shapely, feminine lines of head-dresses or Afro it is the alternative not only on the carnival. In this season we observe return to the classics. Very strong lines of hair-cuttings, geometrical, sharp cuts - that's dominating. The classics does not mean however the boredom, oldschool quiet, classical forms broken they are futuristic asymmetries. A base of neat, feminine head-dresses is the sharp cut showing the face and neck, asymmetric, simple fringes exhibiting the face.

I've been thinking about this one for over a week... In reading many of the responses, I realized that as a child, I didn't read the normal books... Books were (and still are) a refuge for me... Between the age of 6 and 10 I read: The Illiad The Odyssey War and Peace Tale of Two Cities Ulysses Michieavelli (sp?) Aliester Crowley's works Alphonse Constant's works (Eliphas Levi) Mein Kampf Unabridged 1001 Arabian Nights Captain's Courageous Vivien Grey The Pearl Cannery Row Of Mice and Men The Grapes of Wrath Emily Dickenson's Poetry Dante's Inferno Canterbury Tales Wuthering Heights T.S. Elliot's Poetry e.e. cumming's Poetry Elizabeth Browning's Poetry Le Miserabe' (sp?) All of Edgar Allen Poe All of Shakespeare All of Charles Dickens All of Samuel Clemens Gone With the Wind The Unabridged Brothers Grimm The Unabridged Robin Hood Uncle Tom's Cabin All of H.P. Lovecraft For those wondering... I was taught to read before I turned four... in kindergarten, my reading level was tested and was between 6th/7th grade levels... ...those are the ones I remember, anyway; there were a lot of others, including American folk tales (Paul Bunyan, Pecos Bill, etc.) Wry smile... I still hold a grudge against my legal guardian (maternal grandmother) for selling the Unabridged Robin Hood while I was away visiting my paternal grandparents... It was the fully illustrated old English version, leather bound, nearly 3 inches thick... Even though in later years she also regretted it, it still hurts... that was one incredible book 8*P And yes, this is a rather strange collection of books for a young boy to read... but that's another story for (maybe) another post... let it suffice that when the adults in my life saw me reading these kinds of books - *they left me alone* - and bent over backwards to explain any words or concepts I asked about... and rewarded me for asking... They also tested me afterwards to find out just how much I did understand... and took the time to explain that which I did not comprehenend... and rewarded me well for asking, for reading... one of the very few *safe* activities I had as a child...

got 2 words for ya.. Charlotte's Web I cried all day the day I finished it. I was 7 years old. My mother didn't know what to do with me. She reads but doesn't quite get into it like a bookworm does. I really got to love charlotte. No book will ever affect me again the way that one did. It seems so simple on the surface, but it is so intelligent about what friendship and love really is. some of my other fav's.. The Giving Tree (should be required reading for parents and kids  The Velveteen Rabbit (love makes you real..it sure does) I read the whole Little House in the Prairie series AND the first 4 books of The Chronicles of Narnia when I was 8. That was the worst year of my life and probably the most I've ever read in one year. I know I was constantly reading and I lived at the library to escape home. To kill a mockingbird (there's a reason it's a classic.. if you 've forgotten it..read it again.) That book was way ahead of it's time. How I wished Atikus(spelling? ) was my dad. thank god/ the great spirit/allah/buddah/nobody/whomever for books. I think I would never had made it through childhood without them. that and music. shelayla Peace Light Hope Love %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Survival is the best revenge

the velveteen rabbit love makes you real *WOUCH* - nodding; that one hit me hard - cried... Trying to think about recent books I've read... Mostly escapist-type stuff recently; scifi and fantasy such as Mercedes Lackey - though there is a lot of survivor stuff in all of her stories, as well as social issues! Seriously looking at the fact that I've not read anything really meaty for a long time... and acknowledging that it is largely because I've been working - well, at least trying to work - on some meaty issues of my own for quite a while now... Heh... but that still hasn't stopped me from reading things like Silence of the Lambs... GhostWolf - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Say *WHAT?!?* OK, profs, guess that means I'm damaged for life then... heh 8*P That contributed to me *NOT* becoming a professor, fwiw... that, and meeting an IBM 360-30 at work 8*) It seems - at least to me - that this very - hmmmm.... overprotective? arrogant? condescending? heh - all of that and more - attitude is still very prevalent in not only schools, but also in society as a whole... arrogant
