He’s adorable. This middle-aged lady doesn’t attend church regularly, but she’d want to gobble him up if she saw him looking all delicious like that, too!

If Ike ever gets heavy into Battlestar Galactica let me know. I do a mean Col. Tight impression.

I like the octagon bokeh. And your camera does some great work in low light. Were you watching Coraline?

I’m sort of in the same place; I’ve had the same goatee for nearly 20 years. But dude, if you keep that monster ‘stache, I want you to teach the kids to say “Dad, you made that grace your bitch” after you give thanks for Sunday dinner.

We just hit that mark this week. The good news for you is, a $230 dinner probably’s not an option in Cedar City.

It was good though….

I can see that. I think it’s important to try and fit in.

But I don’t think my wife could handle that kind of ammo.

Not that I could grow that thing anyway.

I agree, the one on the left especially evokes the menace of a Cylon.

Also, lest we forget, some Cylons have lady parts. Remain vigilant.

Do the ladyparts attack every 33 minutes?

On the other hand, at least his rendering of what might have been “lady parts” is quite realistic. You know, they are perfectly imperfect, like the real deal(s).

Heh.
