Well, to sum it up succintly, i was thinking of growing my hair long. Thanks for warning of the pitfalls of such an action. Cuz whatever illusions I may have of being Sylvester Stallone, that I ain't - with or without the wig.
This in addition to the fact that I thought a long haired classmate of mine was a girl from a distance and craned my neck as I passed 'her' (much to his later amusement) have been life-changing experiences indeed.
P.S: I have no hope of growing even an excuse for a french beard :-P
Used to extensively comment on rediff articles earlier. Stopped doing so of late, because they stoppped displaying viewer comments. But could not help after reading this. I share similar feelings as the author. Especially the last sentence.
