i read in the ny times yesterday that cool kids are now over the whole low slung low cut low class look that's taken over their closets and floors.

the theory in the adult world is that eventually the pendulum had to swing, cause there's nowhere else to remove clothes from that doesn't break any laws.

my theory is that it's impossible to rebel when there are no rules.

i think that people needed to move back to more basic (as they call its, classic) lines in order to start the revolution going again.  turn up their colors, wear baggy khakis, get parents excited at the prospect of having their kids cover up and dress nicely - lull them, really - and then slowly freak them out again.

i mean, can parents get any more desensitized than buying short shorts for 7 year olds?  having 4 year olds wearing thei jeans so low that their little teeny boxers are sticking out 5"?  (that's a lot of inchage on a small butt)

without rules, without order, there is no chaos, there is only chaos.  YOU CAN"T REBEL AGINST CHAOS
