The Ugly American and the Professional - Graham McMillan

My hair was shaggy to say the least. It was 3 months since my last hair cut and the growth rate was alarming.

People's Adventure - Thomas Reed

On Saturday afternoons, Alpha Center becomes the preserve of the women, for classes and get-togethers, so they can have their own time, more quiet and relaxed, without the main rooms being filled with checkers and chess players, and men deep in conversation.
