Perhaps this would make him look sharper?!

Maybe in a female lock-up?

I have lots of hair (still) and it was an easy style to maintain - just wash and wear and out the door in the morning to teach. The whole cut was done with a razor, so maybe I was having my hair filed.

P.S. We have some great comedians here! Who says historians are stodgy old bookworms? And, Maddie, I hate emoticons, but your little green one above is great.

I know he's great. He seems to convey the kind of on line chortle one sometimes needs to express.

Welcome to the new un-reality show "Prison Makeovers"
I can't wait to see what y'all do with Mrs. Surratt

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?

I see a Texas Big Hair coming... She'll probably need some extensions and maybe some of the new trend of weaving colored tinsel into the locks?

Are we being disrespectful?

When I was a kid the brush cut was "normal" this was pre-Beatles guys. People would say to me: "Billy, you got your ears lowered!." In Lew's case, what would the observation be be? Probably will get "gallows humor" on this one-wow-no pun intended!

Betty, I didn't notice it at first, but the t-shirt was a nice touch.

Sometimes you have to have fun with history.....

Certainly NO disrespect to either Mr. Powell or Mrs. Surratt is intended....

MARY SURRATT WHEN SHE COULD
STYLED HER HAIR TO LOOK GOOD,
SHE CONSPIRED WITH BOOTH
WAS CAUGHT BY A SLEUTH,
IN JULY ON THE GALLOWS SHE STOOD.
