This is a Test.

As I'd said, until a couple of days ago I was a Blog virgin. Heck, I'm not that experienced at all with any other sort of computer dalliances, either, still awkward and clumsy around a keyboard's brassier straps.

Today, I learned how to click a couple of buttons and add pictures. I figure by this point I've caught up with the average second grader.

This image is of the best haircut I think I've had in a few years. I'd gone to the Superman Festival in Metropolis, IL last year and had allowed my hair and facial hair to grow a decent amount during the weeks leading up to it. No particular purpose there, 'had just done it out of boredom. After having gone to the Festival, however, and having spent the summer day walking around in the heat, the hair had really gotten on my nerves. That, along with, of course, having seen all day the images of a clean cut superhero everywhere I looked.

I went to a local mall's hair cuttin' place and asked the lady for something of what I called a "Thirties cut"... again, probably inspired by the older images of Kal... tight on the sides, longer in the front so that I could comb it back neatly and it wouldn't fuzz up on me.

Whether or not this is "Thirties", I don't know. But I do know that I liked the haircut, it did what I wanted it to do, and got a lot of compliments on it for a couple of weeks after that.

I've not had a good haircut since.
