Well, I’m officially a Harvardite, I suppose. Got my ID today. Would be interesting to dig up my old Yale ID from 1993 and compare and contrast. For one, I wasn’t such a damn longhair hippie back then. What are those hair handles behind my head?

Where is that fresh-faced youth I recall so well? Is the portrait of Dorian Benton?

Joshua, I think you're veering toward mullet territory. Surely there are barbers in Cambridge.

i think your hair looks awesome. but i have weird taste when it comes to hair, so perhaps you should take my approval with a grain of salt.

Wow, that's kind of a flip do. You're "That Girl"!

Beginning to remind me of Patch.

Hair handles are very 70s porn star. Nice. (I think you look good with long-ish hair.)

oh. my. *blinks* your hair has gotten quite long.

on another topic, is your id card telling us that you are indeed a Mister or does MR stand for something else?

I like the flip. What size round brush do you use with your blow dryer to get it like that?

(I think the "MR" is meant to emphasize Josh's masculinity. One might have guessed by the facial hair, but he IS from Louisiana, so we needed a more reliable indicia of gender.)
