Steve, EW had the advantage of being less "attached" than I am. I
think his women weren't quite as tough as today's, and were attracted
to the EW's art community networking (partying). Carmel wasn't like
the average college town today: women were there for a narrow range of
reasons, mostly having to do with dreams of artistry.

However, I've been discretely leering at (um, mediting on) certain
tattoos and piercings, thinking to use my cherubic white-haired visage
as a ruse to investigate more closely (Velvia, because those tats are
in color for a reason).
