They're Here
Another semester begins at the University. Lines are long, sidewalks crowded, and the freshmen now
appear to be twelve years old.
Each time around I look forward to observing the new fashions and styles. The first thing that strikes me this year is the prevalence of what I'll call the shaggy-hipster-indie-rock haircut. Competing with the Ross and Joey look-alikes, we now have members of RCA recording artists The Strokes.
Granted, this hairstyle is not new, but it does seem to have reached critical mass. In fact, I just counted three shaggy cuts during a single Daily Show commercial break. And yet, these kids do look cooler to me than the rest. Is this just a trick of the light?
Maybe it's a trick of time.
