burning head (haircut) - tête de feu (coupe de cheveux)

[MrPdeLoor]

cutting hair with fire is old school, they used to think hair is hollow with fluid so if you cut it the fluid will leak out if you burn it with fire the points will be closed and the fluid stays in. Love to watch it me as a hairdresser, nice man to. R.I.P.

I want to become famous within the literary/artistic community - so that next time I set my hair on fire, or do something equally non-conformist - I won't get carted off to the psyche ward;)

[cutielopez]

[OldMotownFan]

The staff at Shakespeare and Company are pleasant and professional. Every time I have been there they have been very patient with my stuttering French.

James Baldwin, Langston Hughes and the Beat Generation icons William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso and Lawrence Ferlinghetti managed to survive the ordeal. I would suggest that if you don't want to deal with him--don't go there. At his age, I'm sure he has no time for bourgeois whiners.

I went to the trouble of logging in to tell you what a tool you are. bourgeois whiner? You must just be a teenager

Yes, George apparently is cantankerous and short with people. So what. He is not begging anyone to stay in his shop.

[LoveForLola]

I love him.

[landrover4444]

Anyone who has spent any time around George knows what a vicious tyrant he is, bossing people around and screaming like a spoiled child. If you don't believe me just go there and hang out. He is horrible.

[Diversions]

clearly you've never been on george's good side. He is a sweetheart when you get to know him.

[Redlights85]

George is wonderful.

[rellufcd]

george rocks another

[reddropdrop]

I want to live there!

[canonrock84]

he is mad
