Christmas and Big Hair
2002-12-17, 1:01 p.m.

I went to my niece's Christmas program last night.

It reminded me of the last program I participated in in elementary school before I decided to embrace my anti-social persona...I had a bit of an attitude problem as a youngster.

It was third grade. I was a baker elf. I had lines...although I don't remember what they were. I also had a prop--a plate of cardboard cookies.

A boy in my class ate three of them before the play began.

P.S. The Christmas program last night also reminded me that big hair is tragically alive and well.
