Leonard Cohen made me do it.

We saw Leonard Cohen last night and he was unbelievably awesome! One of the best shows I have ever seen. He is such a cool cat...the voice, the lyrics, the smoothness, the suit, and the HAT.  No words to describe him really.  He is a true original.

If you haven't heard him then you need to. Just a little sampling:
"Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
Thats how it goes
Everybody knows"


Anyway, with my hair long wearing cool hats looked damn stupid. And Mr. Cohen looked so damn cool in his. So, the simple solution was to cut my hair off. Done. Now, I can wear cool hats.

  3. Thanks everyone. Frankie didn't recognize me when I picked her up yesterday and then she kept saying it looked funny. Please do check out Mr. Cohen. His biggest songs are Hallelujah (which was covered beautifully by both Jeff Buckley and Rufus Wainwright), Everybody Knows, Chelsea Hotel, and Famous Blue Raincoat. The lyrics are amazing.
