You're right, there are some people, who actually dress like that and just kind of live in the past. You'll find them at the Dream Cruise along with ordinary folk who are just play acting. I think a lot of people with a retro lifestyle are attracted to the car culture, because it's all wound up in that kind of thing. I've met quite a few people over the years who are stuck in the fifties. And guess what? They may look funny and hold certain beliefs that are different than most of us. But a lot of them are really good people. In fact there's probably about the same percentage of good people among stuck in the fifties, high school dropout, blue-collar folk as there are among well educated, east coast liberals. Nothing to be afraid of in either crowd.
Well, THAT is a relief! I was going to say it didn't look quite real, but
thought it was.
There are people like that out there, alas.
