Good Morning To You! Blue, the song "Jimmy Mack, ya got a hairy back" goes so deep into market philosophies and cycles it blows my mind how it telepaths to your head at the most important times. I grokk that you're really bothered by the "hairy back" as it's not your liking, and that's understandable, especially as you're a man. But there's no accounting for taste! Also notice you spoke of the bearskin rug just now, as you talked about the hairy back - is that our market message/meaning of the flipside right there? Especially with the language of The Yellow Dogs! Holding my fire! Blue, you're the BILLY JACK Authority, but I get BILLY as "But this boy keeps coming around, trying to wear my resistance down". Though we think "JIMMY MACK, he's got a hairy back" returns in time to stop Billy's moves, and we cheer for Jimmy, and boo Billy who is probably Jimmy's best friend- in love, life, & Market, nothing's for sure. No wonder this is one of Blue's Oldies Market Themes, It's Deep! Picturing Jimmy Mack away in Vietnam, (in the '60's that was what "away" meant) and Billy Jack was a not-with-it rich boy who betrays his buddy by making moves on his girlfriend. Hope Jim's back in time! Re: TYPE I - Remember when Tom Jones in a shirt with billowing sleeves, halfway open, gold astrological medallion on a chain, plenty chest hair showing, and of course "those moves", was a mega-macho-model for "Babe Magnets" in the '60's ... as was (#1 IMHO) Sean Connery as James Bond, and like Jack Nicholson, Burt Reynolds, etc. etc. in those days...sportin' hairy chests and (we assume) backs... and more than gettin' away with it even in swimtrunks! Now Englebert was a Talented Top Hunk, but no chest hair & acted like gigolo wimp to boot, he never did make it to the level of TYPE I IMHO. And though Elvis had no chest mat, he surpassed them all as The King, #1, the Ultimate TOP DOG TYPE ONE of those times - Elv beat James Bond "by a hair" for The Title - which would make sense no hairy chest wasn't the only unspoken rule Elvis broke to reach his pinnacle! So chest hair/open collar in those days sounded an alert watch for a A TYPE I of the Highest Order... "The Techno-Elegant Caveman" or "The Macho Macho Renaissance Man".... if the rest ran true after the TYPE I marker display, 'twas a hit... Sadly, this TYPE I model's out-of-style now in Hollywood as "The Primitive Real Lady" is also. (a quote from Alfred Hitchcock: "An elegant woman will never cease to surprise you" compare that to Madonna & Courtney!) But who cares about Hollywood anyway! "The Techno-Elegant Caveman" (chest hair or not) and "Primitive Real Ladies" (bumpy body markers or not) never go out of style in the real world: grooving away on a yinyang thang from opposite sides of the spectrum. And a TYPE I and then THE TOP DOG TYPE I (who is vying for that title, hmmmmmm I wonder) display different markers at different times, but They Are What They Are, TYPE I. Procrastinating looking at my portfolio...better get to it. More 909s Please Pals, Joanie
