My First Retraction...

So I went by my parents house on Saturday. My dad says, "I told your mother about the fake eyelashes entry and she says her sistes never wore false eyelashes..."

"Is that a made-up story?" my mother added. Ouch.

In order to save my reputation from a James-Frey-like spanking, I take it back. I admit that I have no solid evidence that my aunts wore false eyelashes back in the 1960's and 70's. I jumped to the conclusion that the gaudy appendages came part and parcel with the masssively teased and sprayed giant hair (of which I have much evidence, by the way...)

In terms of the new wave of lashes, I saw the Watchmen over the weekend. Every woman in that movie (which, admittedly, was not many) wore them.
