Nah, that's not me; could be my friend Richard North, though. I had a crewcut, blonde hair and glasses. And didn't care much
about chemistry. However, when I worked at a paper mill, I had to.

BTW, I grew up in the South (Appalachia, specifically) and we wore jeans long before it was cool. We had huge cuffs on 'em, too, so we'd always empty about a pound and a half of sirt and gravel before we came into the house. I was in the Army during the 1970s, so in old family photos I'm the only one with normal looking hair!

Like "Dungaree Doll," BLUE DENIM singled out those who wear bluejeans as being somehow not quite right. There was also a
popular song that definitely did this--the guy is hardly a role model--though in that case, the jeans weren't blue, but black. We coastal Oregon kids
embraced the song, even though it was sung by Vaughn Monroe (at least he did a version), since it seems to take place in Oregon--that screamin' diesel is
headed for California), and on the coast at that, because that's where Highway 101 is. It's also a fun song to sing while
driving on Highway 101.

Guys wearing them as work clothes (according to you, the only people wearing blue jeans in the 1950s) were regarded as "not quite right"? Why? |
