    I hear you! I saw a gay couple at the grocery store recently, they were black, I almost ran over and hugged them. LOL Instead I contented myself with grinning like an idiot at them, they grinned back just as big.

    This makes me look for a 'like' button!

    I just recently dyed my hair partially teal and a good portion of it is shaved to a '2'. I cannot wait to go to the corporate offices of my company (in Greensboro, NC again!) and see the reaction I get from the predominantly white, male, old-boy network. I expect shocked looks and if I don't get it, I'm going to be disappointed!

    This needs a photo (Facebook, perhaps?). Sounds cool!

    I can see it, GLC. And make sure you tell us about the reaction you get from those old guys.
    I just got my hair cut and styled slightly differently. It is not really much shorter, except on the sides, but it's way more edgy. My friends are freaked out.
