Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for June 10, 2013

Well if you want to be the Amazing Bearded woman you could be right its not unheard of to have a woman grow hair all over.

*Snark!

50/50… *Chuckle!

If she makes a unicorn angry, maybe.

Some unicorns have beards, and all are completely covered in hair. The hairy manes are the humans best feature. Just ask any guy who has lost his!

Hasn’t Phoebe ever seen her Mom’s legs?? (She doesn’t seem like the type who would shave them…)

The correct answer is yes, in spots.

She may well challenge you for best mane, Marigold…or not.

Given how much hair she has already, I’d say Dakota’s the girl who has to worry about that one.

Only puberty can play that role Phoebe. I think your mom turned out great!

A-ha, Dana’s still got it! :D

rather odd pix of geek age-8. I would have guessed taped together glasses, Zelda T-shirt or plaid instead of gingham..?PHE gets freckles from Mom’s side?

At first, I thought this was perfectly silly, but it occurs to me now that A), my father shaved, but Phoebe’s father doesn’t, and B), electric shavers and safety razors and shaving cream, etc., etc., used to advertise all over the place, even on prime-time TV, when I was a kid, and now they don’t. So I guess it’s easy for Phoebe to be a lot more confused on this point than I was.

Come to think of it, I even had a toy shaving kit, with brush-on soap, a plastic safety razor, and cardboard blades.

Rapid-Shave outshaves them all,Rapid-Shave outshaves them all,No messy brush, no greasy cream,Use Rapid-Shave in the morning!

How are ya fixed for blades (better hurry!),Gillette Blue Blades we mean.

Floating heads, floating heads,Floating all the way.Norelco has the gifts you wantTo give on Christmas day!

I have three pictures on my dresser. One is of my daughter, one is my mom, and the other is my dad. They are all their yearbook pictures.

Don’t mention shaving to Dana.

the question is, will she go to santa cruz?

(where the girls stop shaving their legs and the boys start shaving their armpits)

Has anyone else noticed how much Phoebe’s dad looked a lot like Casey from Mr. Dressup as a kid???
