Semi-Sicilian Hair

I haven't paid attention to Natalie Merchant since I listened to her 10,000 Maniac's album In My Tribe about 10,000 times---on audio cassette---when bink and I were living in Chicago in the late 80s.

But just today a friend told me Merchant >
 has a Sicilian grandfather ("Mercante") and looks like she could be my cousin.

So I googled her and
1. in fact, I do have a cousin who looks like her

2. I also have hair like hers.

I'd been wondering if I should cut mine, but I think for now, anyway, I'll leave it long.

I'm busy with work, so not blogging much at the moment.
