So… I’m trying to decide on a promotional photo… Urrrhhmmm. Which one should I use?
You know what they say… “Beards Don’t Sell”. I’m thinking that the clean-shaven version might do better. Plus, y’know… there’s no REASON to show everyone how bald I am.
Let’s see: creepy villain in a sci fi indie film or psycho playing with a leaf blower? Creepy or psycho? Tough call. I’d go with pschyo myself. 😀
Psycho, you say? YOU’re the one who knew I was horsing around with the leaf blower. How many of the rest of us would’a guessed that? Anybody? Anybody? Bueller?
Me yet another crazy psycho.
Me three.
Either the leaf blower, or the wife’s hair dryer, and I think she told you off for touching it. 😀
I can’t think of any other way for someone to make their mouth puff out like that and still stand still enough for a steady photo from the front. Any other conclusion would definitely land back in the looney bin.
Well, when she first told me what she wanted to do, I thought my wife was nuts. After she got these entertaining photos of me and my oldest son, I could see why it was pretty amusing. Of course, if we hadn’t had the goggles, and if either of us had hair longer than a half inch, the leaf blower aspect would have been more obvious.
go with the bearded bond villian
So, where’d you get the photo of Magnum PI with the shaved head? I never knew Selleck was a shaver.
My wife would probably date the guy on the left.
Hey, ya know handsome Bond villain right?
C’mon, face fur can be sexy.
So can chromedome or close to it.
I’d date the one on the left.
In my college days I think I dated the one on the right at least once (okay I will blame the beer for that)
Some of what the one of the left has going for him:
Nice eyes, nice smile; a dedication to face fur that doesn’t look like he was just too lazy to shave for a couple of days (thus being like getting near a brillo pad or the hairbrush); and no stupid little strip on the lower chin like your cleft is too much to shave in (and I don’t like clefts all that much) or the right under the lower lip little tuftlet where the hair likes to stick straight out anyways. (see: pucker up and kiss the hairbrush THEN come see me…)
So nice smile, nice eyes, an appropriate neat amount of face fur, and good shadowing and composition. Yeah, looks like something I’d date if I was on the market. However, I think it’d take more than six beers for the one on the left to agree to date me (yeah, three decades past my cheesecake days, I’ll freely admit it)
Sure, there’s no reason to show everyone how bald you are. There’s also no reason to show off every single one of your teeth, along with your gums (unless you’re showing your dentist.)
Actually, I was thinking air compressor (you know, the one you use for airing up your tires or blowing the dust off your air conditioner each spring) but leaf blower works too (also explains the glasses, don’t want something blown into your eyes at 90 mph.) You can see one of your minions taking the photo in the reflection, most likely another was aiming the blower.
Heh. Yah. I was thinking that it would be cool if you did this in a hurricane simulator. Yeah.
With burning steel wool. Oh, yeah.
The left one for certain.
Looks suave, smart and dropdead sexy, in a middle-agey kind of way.
Right – weeeelll, it tugs some muscles on the corner of my mouth – some….
Beards Work…. in Boston… then they assume your a Sox Fan.
I’d say the left person looks like a successful sympathetic adult who people like me probabaly would like to know better.
The one on the right though gives a very distinct impression of being a deranged not very successful clown that uses drugs and who is best avoided by walking around him in a BIG curve.
