Hair today...


And indeed there will be time
To wonder, "Do I dare?" and, "Do I dare?"
Time to turn back and descend the stair,
With a bald spot in the middle of my hair--
[They will say: "How his hair is growing thin!"]
. . .
Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach?


At the encouragement of Elizabeth and [info]scarlettina during a recent visit to Seattle, this week I've gone from this to this. The Mirror Universe Beard of Evil still needs time, but at least my increasingly Franciscan pate no longer looks like I'm angling for the Zero Mostel Comb-Over Championships.


"Slightly bald, can dance a little." — from Fred Astaire's first MGM screen test

You mean "strikingly handsome," don't you? Heck, I'd accept "Cleans up good."

Well called, Elizabeth & Scarlettina.

If a woman says, "You'd look so fine if you did that," that's good enough for me.

Next you're going to be posing and saying, "Does this make me look fat?"

And I thought *I* was bad at accepting compliments.... ;)

Lately it's "Does this prose make me look fat-headed?"

Yeah, but all knees-meltingly attractive, hot-as-all-getout women think that. ;{)

Thanks. Well, you are largely to blame. :{) Elizabeth really digs it a bunch, so I guess I owe you one.

I'd say "Oooh, shiny!" but that might be taken the wrong way.....

Heh. Save that for when I reveal how I've shaved all the hair from the rest of my body....
