There's a problem with opening your act to the gutter. I mean, its like dabbling in Satanism, or experimenting in certain life-styles, or certain types of drugs, that open you up - I mean, I'm not a religious person, but you open up that crack, it can get to you. So you have to be careful.
The problem with the hippies was that there developed a hostility within the counterculture itself, between those who has like the equivalent of a trust fund versus those who had to live by their wits. Its true, for instance, that blacks were somewhat resentful of the hippies by the Summer of Love, 1967, because their perception was that these kids were drawing paisley swirls on the Sam Flax writing pads, burning incense, and taking acid, but those kids could get out of there any time they wanted to.
They could go back home. They could call their mom and say. "Get me outta here." Whereas someone who was raised in a project on Columbia Street and was hanging out on the edge of Tompkins Square Park can't escape. Those kids don't have any place to go. They can’t go back to Great Neck, they can’t go back to Connecticut. They can’t go back to boarding school in Baltimore. They're trapped.
So there developed another kind, more of a lumpen hippie, who really came from an abused childhood -- from parents that hated them, from parents that threw them out. Maybe they came from a religious family that would call them sluts or say 'You had an abortion, get out of here' or 'I found birth control pills in your purse, get out of here, or go away.' And those kids fermented into a kind of hostile street person. Punk types." -Ed Sanders

How To Be The Perfect Wife:
1. Put on your prettiest dress every morning.
2. Wear your most expensive pearls.
3. Make sure the coffee is ready and hot for your husband.
4. Prepare an elaborate breakfast and call the family down to eat.
5. After breakfast, make sure the kitchen is spotless and glimmering.
6. Vacuum while the family is gone so the house is in ship shape when they get home.
7. Be at the door to greet the kids when they arrive home from school.
8. Make sure the kids get their milk, cold milk, and fresh cookies.
9. After everyone is in bed and while no one is looking, slip into more comfortable clothes.
10. Take the pearls off. You can be yourself again.
Tips:
1. If your dress isn't starched, it won't look as pretty.
2. Use real butter in the cookies. If you don't they won't taste as good.
3. Make sure the kids don't drink the milk straight out of the milk bottle!
hell yea! i mean gosh golly thatd be swell.
