I LOVE the pic of Zodiac, although I'm not sure how "hip" the 60's look is, lol BUT, I guess everything tends to come back around? Maybe this will start it back up again. ...and I would pay to see Diesel in some skinny-jeans. I totally lolled thinking about that one.....I gotta start playing dress up with Beta, but in the meantime, please enjoy the pics of my sweet and beloved (not to mention very F A T )beagle, Monty, who passed away last August at age 11. He died after a recurrence of thyroid carcinoma. He was THE cutest and coolest ever and we miss his fat self.We got Beta about a month after losing Monty.

60's look? Maybe I'm just too young to see it but those are all modern hipster accessories Zodiac is wearing, mostly from Hot Topic which is a store hipsters like to shop in. She is dressed in genuine hipster items, lol.

Awww now, dont go pickin' on the old Hippies (I was one back in the day) :lol: :stickman: No, seriously. My boyfriend then tried to get me to hop freight trains with them from here in Louisiana to Woodstock in '69. They went but my Dad, well, just say I didnt go. I need to look at the Hipster definition better, does it mean whatever is 'hip' for now but just old people trying to do it or is it anyone any age trying to look like a Hippie? Ok, my old mind is confused. :hic: :duh:

The most common phrase used to describe/make fun of hipsters is the line "I liked it before it was cool", representing the fact that hipsters typically favor independent/underground forms of expression and reject more popular forms. They're like a less-edgy form of punk and are generally disliked by other subcultures because of their lack of authenticity and willingness to abandon something they like (i.e. a band) as soon as it becomes popular. Here's the definition from wikipedia which, to me, definitely describes the hipsters I know:

"Hipster (also referred to as scenesters) is a term frequently used to refer to a subculture of young, recently settled urban middle class adults and older teenagers. Usage of the term reappeared in the 1990s and persists to the present. The subculture is associated with independent music, a varied non-mainstream fashion sensibility, and alternative lifestyles. Interests in media would include independent film, magazines such as Vice and Clash, and websites like Pitchfork Media".

I live close enough to Portland the hipster capitol of the world so I will take Remington downtown and find some hipsters to pose in a photo with him to help clarify.

Seems to be a difficult one this month.

How about one for the best dog movie remake? Like when Linda Hamilton drives off with a Wrangler Renegade with a GSD in the back seat and a gun laying on the passenger seat in Terminator. Or the 2 Malinois on plane wings in The Breed. Or a nice "shoe lace" drooling pic like Hooch in Turner & Hooch. Or laying in a beach chair with sunglasses like the Huskies in Snow Dogs (this is reserved for Thalie). Or like "on my signal - unleash hell" - Russell Crow in Gladiator. Or driving in a cabrio through a car wash like GSD in K9 with James Belushi. Sorry, I'm getting carried away.............

I am trying to find a pair of those black framed glasses. Maybe I will just ask the next hipster I see to lend me theirs.
