I heard that in the '80s girls would pull their hair into ponytails on top of their heads. I (and pretty much everyone I know) find that this is incredibly odd. Honestly, why would you want hair shooting out of the top of your head like a wilted corn stalk? But we have recently discovered one good use for it: helicopters. Helicopters go like this: when you spin your head, the hair goes around like the blades of a helicopter. When I say helicopter you may think of this:
I have been trained by Mario to think of this:
But that is another story. Anyway, doing helicopter with your hair is trés amusant and is good for your neck muscles. Possibly. I mean, you are rolling your neck but not like how you roll your ankle, more like how you loosen your neck in stretches. Moving right along: if you are ever tired or giddy or anything really, try the hair helicopter. It will take your mind off anything and release energy. I think I might try to patent it:
The Hair Helicopter
Good for any time or place: One ponytail holder and you're good to go!
Okay, so you probably can't patent hairstyle; this may be more than just a hairstyle. Ish. Or not.
Isn't this interesting? You've learned about my mental image of helicopters AND what to do with your hair when you are bored. I'm sure you're just in awe at how in intellectual this post is. Anywho, ta-ta.

I remember these pony tails...never had hair long enough to have one, however, in the late 50's, early 60's (am I dating myself?) some girls did wear them. At the time I didn't think much of it, but now that you make the "helicopter" comparison, it's no wonder I didn't like them; thought they looked silly.
