Laurianne - what kind of a festival was it that you got funny looks? Sounds like a very conservative gathering! Around here it's pretty easy to be yourself in public. (Well maybe not in our tiny town, but definately in Olympia.) Someone told me once that Olympia - home of a very famous liberal college - was "nine square miles surrounded by reality". It's a very laid back town (city?) where no one gives anyone a second look if you're a bit different - because everyone is different. I love it!

Sherri -- the town was one west of Norfolk Va. -- we had gone to a peanut festival, and it was absolutely one of the weirdest things I've ever Evah gone thru --
I'd wanted to go to our local county fair, but tom had this hair-brained idea to go to the peanut festival -- so off we went. Gabriel went with us, cause we hadn't seen each other for awhile, so that part of the day was good.
The rest was just too weird.
When we took gabriel back to his little house, Tom & I went out to eat at a local chinese (sp)take-out that we always used to go to when we lived up there...an' not once did we get any weird looks an' glares like we did at that dumb festival.
Needless to say, tom has been Completely Lectured on never ever Evah goin' to that thing again.

Sounds just like Madison here in Wisconsin. 
I just realized another use for the Ketylo hair sticks yesterday: setting one's hair to make waves easily! Just twist your almost-dry hair all the way to the ends, curl the roll back on itself against your head, insert a stick in an up-down-up-down motion (catching some of the base hair against your scalp on the downs), leave it until dry, and voila! Natural looking waves!
