But he makes great cough drops.

Is he a dope smoker, too?

He didn’t see the sign.

That’s longer-haired edge-sitting hippie freak.

Hey, as long as it helps those in search of the universal answers climb the last bit of their journey, I’m cool with it!

HIPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Damn Hippies.

… said the long-haired hippie freak to the other long-haired hippie freak.

And the sign said “Long Haired Freaky People Need Not Apply”….so I tucked my hair up under my hat and went in to ask him why.

A little shove will fix that.

The way the job market is going now, I’m thinking even long haired-hippy freaks can apply… (assuming you’re referencing the song “Signs”)

Now we know why he sits on a mountain top.

Always living on the edge.

Why do I see a mountain climber/“true seeker” using that beard as a handhold? And the guru going over the edge?

“…so, I put my hair under my hat and went in to ask him why”……

Just think: Someone who was a hippie in the ’60s could very well look like that today.
