Hippies
Hippies are a fascinating subject. We mean really, there's so much cool stuff about them! They like lava lamps and trees; what could be funnier!? Plus, they're vegatarians, so they won't be planning on eating YOU!!! Being a vegatarian (for a hippie) means they only eat fruits, vegetables, and fruity and vegetabley smoothies of all kinds. Oh, and don't forget the rainbow popsicles! So please consider the above information, because it will help you in your day to day lives. Also, it will help you with making soup, but only if it is non-meat soup. (We are being totally serious here!)
The Non-Violent "Creatures"
One of the ten million, five hundred thousand, seventy-three good things about hippies, is they are 100% non-violent creatures. THEY HATE... err... uhh... I mean... DIS-LIKE VIOLENCE! Their whole lives they have to avoid scary movies and crazy strangers. (Even though they are odd themselves...) There is actually only one hippie in the entire world who has ever seen a scary movie. His name was Joe Cool. All of the hippies in the entire millenium shun Joe Cool. Also known as Joe-E. I mean really SHUN. And, shunning is a very rare thing for hippies because they LOVE love. (And hate... AHHHHH! I mean dislike violence!) But that's a long story. All hippies watch movies from age 1 until' their death, mostly movies like Barney. That's because the theme song is "I love you, you love me..." (I Know, too much LOVE!!) But that's how it goes. Hippies wanted peace in the world, and forever they'll want it, too...
-Hippie Pet Peeves-
One of the Hippie's most pet peeve-i-ish pet peeve, is people who don't like peas. One of their most famous sayings is "Give Peas a Chance!" "Seriously!" they say. "Peas are like totally awesome dude! They're like, the like, color of like, trees so they like, rock man!!" We asked Hippie Scott, and this is what he had to say. "People just don't care. It's like their minds got, like, hypnotized, man. It's just so... wrong." We asked a bunch of viewers to see what they said about the "Pea Situation". This is what they said. "EWW!! WHY would WE eat something that's like... HIPPIE-ISH????? I mean it's not like WE'RE hippies!" Ahhh... times are getting pretty bad! Just as Hippie Scott said above:
"it's just soooo..... wrong."
The "Grand" Hippie Ages!!!!!
The "Grand" hippie ages started out in the late 60's and was and is a very popular "thing". The person on the left was the very first hippie to be created. His name is Hippie Philio, the coolest and bestest of them all... In the grand hippie ages, people would wave carrots in the air in concerts. It was a sign of Hope and Peace, but most of the time it scared people away, and sometimes started carrot riots. "We want our carrots!" the hippies would say as policemen took the precious carrots away. In the end, the hippies won; of course! But soon, everything went a little overboard. Not with the carrots, but with everything else. People painted their houses rainbow, and put GIANT smiley face signs on their doors, exaggerating just a little bit. The hippies were starting to rule the world! Ahhh... those were the days...
The History of Lava Lamps and its People
Lava lamps have gone back way into the late 60's; the "grand" Hippie Ages. They are the coolest object that gives light. Plus, they are very colorful! The first lava lamp was created by Edward Craven Walker, a well loved person; to hippies that is!
Hippies and their "Wear"
Hippies are one of the most fashionable people on earth. They have the style everybody should have. Most of the time, hippies wear bell bottom jeans, clashy shirts, colorful headbands and vests. But did you know some put beads in their hair? I bet NOT! It makes the finishing touch on the perfect outfit for a hippie. Look at Hippie Crystal for an example. The fabulous pinks are bright and vibrant, and the necklace RULES! Wonderful! Let's give her an applause! (Clap, clap, clap) Most hippies used extra materials and went to thrift stores for patterns. They would just sew it all together, creating a masterpiece!!!
Some AWESOME pic's of hippies! (and stuff)
Peace out dudes! Peace signs are EVERWHERE!
Wow! Look at that very cool hippie disco ball! That would totally be awesome in a hippie-ish room!
(Even though it's sorta more of a late 70's accessorie!)
O MY RAINBOW! Look at that awesome air-hockey table! It totally rocks! Look at all the awesome colors! Even though hippies don't beleive in air hockey (They think it's too violent) this is still an AWESOME example of hippie-ness!
Now that is cool! A peace sign made outta fireworks, what could be awesomer???!
Wow! Look at that shiney peace sign! B-U-TI-FUL! :)
-How the "peace" sign got started-
The peace sign, as we all know, is a sign of peace. But what we didn't know is how it got started. Here is the story!
-The Story of hippie Ty, and the peace sign-
One day, just two days after Ty Malkerson had become a hippie, he was getting very irritated. "I thought when you were a hippie, people like gave you like... peace." he said. The only reason hippie Ty had became a hippie, was for peace. But even after he became one he still had little girls coming to his door saying "Wanna buy some girl scout cookies mister, only $25.00, plus tip!" Even though Ty didn't even like cookies, he still gave in to the little girls; he couldn't help himself! So one day after, he couldn't get in his pantry without 100 boxes of cookies, which he didn't even like, falling on his head, he decided to do something about it. That's why he became a hippie. But, the very day he became a hippie, "Ding-Dong!" went the doorbell. "Theres the dumb little girl scouts with their dumb little cookies" he said. "So, I guess my plan of being a hippie didn't work," he sighed. Ty had to think of something else to gain some of the peace he wanted. One day hippie Ty decided to go to the police to see if he could get some peace. And it did work, but not in the way Ty meant! The police put Ty in jail. After he got out of jail the next day, Ty decided the police didn't work. He thought and thought and he decided on the peace sign. He decided that he would use his pointer finger for the "p" in peace and his middle finger because of the "m" in Malkerson. (His last name) And to his surprise after he did the peace sign to the girl scouts, they never returned. For some reson they thought his fingers were lazers... ahhh..... the young mind is sooooo..... imaginative....
~~~The Peace Sign~~~
The circle, with what looks like an upside-down broken cross, is easily one of the most recognizable icons of the peace movement. Even people who do not take part in marches and rallies often sport clothing and jewelry showing the peace symbol.
History: The use of what has commonly become known as the "peace sign" began in the late 1950's in Britain by the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament. It was designed by a commercial artist who has been specially commissioned by the CND to create something for a demonstration. The "fork" in the middle of the circle is how the letters "N" and "D" are spelled out using the visual signals created by extending one's arms while holding flags. The "N" and "D" stand for "Nuclear Disarmament."
The peace symbol made its way to the United States a couple of years later, thanks to an American student who was visiting England. He brought a bag of buttons with the icon on them back to his campus in Chicago, where they immediately caught on with the campus peace group.
Interpretations: There is some controversy associated with the peace sign. Some conservative Christians object to the peace sign because they claim the center image looks like an upside down broken cross, and as a result, mocks their religion. The peace sign has also been related to Satanism, as well as general immorality, since the peace sign was often worn by hippies in the 60's era of free love. However, the most popular interpretation remains peace alone.
Contemporary Usage: The peace sign is still used often in the peace movement, although it has lost some of its impact because it is so frequently used for fashion purposes that have nothing to do with peace - much like crucifixes have become part of popular culture. Peace signs can be commonly found on pendants, t-shirts, earrings, body jewelry, accessories, and other fashion items.
Other Peace Symbols: Two other common symbols in the peace community include the dove holding an olive branch in its mouth and representations of the word "peace" in different languages such as Hebrew and Arabic. Holding up the index and middle finger on one's hand in a "V" formation is also considered to be a peace sign.
WOW! a peace sign made out of people! Awesome!

~Awesome ways to show your Hippie-ness~
One good way to show your hippie-ness is Love. You can show your love by doing thigs like helping to clean up! Here is an awesome picture of somebody doing something awesome with his awesome friend. Isn't it awesome?!? By the way,you can watch this awesome Barny show mon-fri at 8:30am until 9:00am and on weekends from 7:30am until 8:30am on O.P.B. (Oh, and if you live in Hong Kong, Canada, or Nebraska, it's only on eight times a week; Sorry!)
Another way to show your hippie-ness is by wearing hippie-ish clothes. Oh, and don't worry about where to find them, people sell hippie-ish clothes almost everywhere!
Oh, and another cool way to spread the Love around (Or peace) is to make some yummy and delicious cookies for your hippie neighbors. (See Polls and Quizes to see a poll on cookies + neighbors...) I mean, who can resist those chocolatey, snicker-doodley, iceing-E, tasty creations made out of dough? Seriously, they're SCRUMCIOUS! So heres a recipe of some good ole' chocolate chip cookies! (See bottom for recipe)
Hippie - Amazing Chocolate Chip Cookies
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (16 oz)
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment or wax paper. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. Beat together butter and sugars in a large bowl with an electric mixer at high speed until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Lightly beat 1 egg with a fork in a small bowl and add 1 3/4 tablespoons of it plus 2 remaining whole eggs to butter mixture, beating with mixer until creamy, about 1 minute. Beat in vanilla. Reduce speed to low and mix in flour mixture until just blended, then stir in chips. Scoop 1/4 cup batter for each cookie, arranging mounds 3 inches apart, on 2 baking sheets. Flatten mounds into 3-inch rounds using moistened palm of your hand. Form remaining cookies on additional sheets of parchment. Bake, 1 sheet at a time, until golden, 13 to 15 minutes. Transfer cookies to a rack to cool and continue making cookies in same manner using cooled baking sheets.

Easy Chocolate Cookies
1 pkg. Chocolate or Devil's food cake mix (without pudding)
2 eggs
1/2 c. oil
1tbsp.water 1 cup love (if your a hippie)
Mix all ingredients with spoon until moist. Shape with spoon and drop on cookie sheet. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven while still soft. CAREFUL!! These cookies burn easily if left in too long. Better to undercook them, they taste just as good! Great to make with hippie-children or hippie-grandchildren! Serve with Easy Freezer hippie-Ice Cream!

NO LITTER BUGS ALLOWED!
Another way to spread hippie-ish goodness is to like THROW YOUR TRASH IN GARBAGE CANS (or recycling bins if it's supposed to be recycled)! One of the most evil-ish evils of people (besides hippies cause' they DON"T litter) is littering! JUST THINK, if each person picked up one thing and threw it away, that would be BILLIONS of stuff cleaned up! But, it would be much simpler if we just threw it away the first time! So, next time you want to just drop something on the ground... DON'T! Look below for some awesome sighs you can put up!
