Not confusing at all. The ending merelly showed the culmination of your thought process. Indeed, it is the hippies we dislike. It just seems more palatable to others when we say we dislike their shiny bobbles. How delightful!!! Not confusing at all. The ending merelly showed the culmination of your thought process.

It will makes most people laugh but I have to agree with the first reader. The ending is off. You state its not the hippies you dislike, its just all the shiny stuff they wear. Then you say its not the shiny stuff they wear its the hippies.....Something to ponder next time spending hours in the warm pool.

This reminds me of spending xmas at Harbin with my mother one year, and one lady telling me how much she was into Unicorning lately. I enjoyed imagining it as some kind of kinky sex thing before it was explained to be deep tissue massage mixed with psychotherapy. My other favorite Harbin quote: "Would you like a Watsu, Kind Sister?" Ha!

Its not that i don't share some of your observations about hippies, but you sounded just whiny and irritable in a way I have not experience in your writing before (did some hippie really hurt you at some point?); and then ending kind of apologetically by saying your really had a good experience...felt like a nonsequetuer (spelling!) Usually if you are ascorbic (which I actually enjoy), its with a wit and interesting or new perspective that was missing here. That's my two cents....look forward to further writings; its a skill I am a bit in awe of. take care eleanor (from RS) Hi Judah, open for some critical feedback??? stop here if not
