    The locket looks like it would crack to pieces if trampled by an elephant. What you want in the colonies is a good compass, like the one Denis Fynch-Hatton gave to Isak Dinesen.

    Though it does not carry the same headdesk connotations, I am quite fond of "rustic leaves". Little brass country leaves are so different from little brass city leaves, you know. So much less refined.

    I hate fashion mags.

    Why don't you ask an African if they were better off under colonialism, or now? Hint: it's not now.

    I think it's possible to dislike colonialism, yet appreciate the aesthetic that came out of the time and location. I mean, I'm not for fascism, but I dig their iconography.

    @fulanita: Still bad, I think. I mean, I think chelsea haircuts look kind of groovy from a purely aesthetic standpoint, but if I got one I could hardly blame someone for calling me a skinhead (which I am pretty much the opposite of). Know what I'm saying?

    Yes, so you can play out your fantasy of being a frumpy, uptight British woman who learns to get back in touch with her primal nature and free her soul; thanks to the simple yet kindly Savage Natives, Ruckus and Mandingo.
