Brunettes, it was the brunettes for me.
It has ALWAYS been the brunettes.
Even in the Viking Valhalla of Minnesota, I still sought out the brunettes, and up there, they were ....."exotic". (LOL)

I remember the older boys slobbering over Annette Funicello, and the Men over Elizabeth Taylor in the 60's.

Hey: It turns out, everything bad that ever happened is our fault. We shoulda listened to our parents after all...

Did Woodstock hippies lead to US financial collapse?

Christian Science Monitor article, discussing a new film from the same jerk who took “Hillary: The Movie” to the Supreme Court and destroyed our Republic in the process.

Jeff,

I can think of quite a few really hot Brunettes during the 50s and 60s. I mean what guy who watched "Rebel Without A Cause" and didn't flip for Natalie Wood (as you mentioned in a previous post)...hmmmm, well, you dig what I'm saying.

What about Sophia Loren, Elizabeth Taylor, Leslie Caron?

I thought Audry Hepburn was awesomely beautiful...but she was way too pristine for the likes of me. After all, I'm an Oak Cliff boy.

Unless one is from Dallas - they'll never know what it means being from Oak Cliff. But, a clue: If you walked around Oak Cliff and you were stopped by the police, searched for weapons, and you didn't have any...they'd issue you a gun and a knife on the spot.

I think I've come to realize that what we are witnessing is the resurgence of the kind of right wing philosophies that we were subjected to in the 1950's, compounded by the lowering of the collective right wing IQ by about 40 points, which of course is what accounts for the tea baggers.
But make no mistake, we're about to see a brand new, uber wealthy backed McCarthyism. Instead of witch hunting commies, they will be witch hunting liberals.
And this time, they OWN the government.

Sorry guys, I won't go quietly, I won't plead the fifth, I won't submit to blacklisting and demonizing.
I intend to fight dirty.

Mick,It really doesn't change much.

Ummm, it was all about Sal Mineo and James Dean, I mean cmon.

Ewww! I remembered Annette from her Mousketeer days as a preteen, and she always reminded me of my older sister. No way!

Why even look at Annette, when Gidget (Sandra Dee) is right down the beach?

I even had a real live Gidget (cute blond girl-midget surfer) growing up right across the street when I was a teen. It seemed like one week we were all playing touch football in the street, and then next week she was out waxing her board on the lawn in her little red bikini, with a chorus of dumbfounded neighborhood boys watching in awe.

Funny thing about Gidget: The original book was written as a collaboration between a Czechoslovakian Jewish immigrant and his daughter (Kathy Kohner, nicknamed Gidget) when she served as his guide to the SoCal surf subculture. So the real Gidget was a Jewish brunette!

In the 60's, I was in love with Johnny Quest!

An American poet in every sense of the word, perhaps somewhat on the "dark side," but, hey, it was the sixties! Or, maybe it wasn't.
