Staying With The Positive. . .

A Couple Of Articles About Us Hippies You May Find Interesting -
by The Old Hippie Because I Can Take A Compliment With Sincere Appreciation, And A Smile.

“Just two articles about us hippies.  Yes, the unique simple complexity of our complex simplicity is really not all that hard to understand, nor to appreciate.  Both articles kind of made me feel a little bit more like I did before I got here, than I do now.  But even so, appreciating the appreciation is... Well... groovy.”

 Here are the links to the two articles:

“We Owe It All To The Hippies”

From Stewart Brand at Time Magazine via their History Files
“Forget antiwar protests, Woodstock, even long hair.  The real legacy of the sixties generation is the computer revolution.”


“The Hippies Were Right!”

From Mark Morford at The San Francisco Chronicle
“Green homes?  Organic food?  Nature is good?  Time To Give The Ol’ Tie-Dyers Some Respect.”

Dig “the unique simple complexity of our complex simplicity” now?

I am not a hippie... but over the past few months, I have been developing 2 characters for a client loosely based on his experiences. Throught the process, I have read a lot of different articles and learned a lot more about them than the typical stereotypes. Althouh the main focus for the site is commercial, we are working on a blog and I hope to develop a comic strip based on this old hippie couple.

The project still very new, but I hope that you enjoy it! It's meant to be fun!
