Pardon The Hair! Everybody!

The following are excerpts from a recent news report concerning the impeachment of Rod Blagojevich. Is there anything in the items below that you notice absent? Try and guess:

“Gov. Rod Blagojevich was impeached Friday ...”

“... a defiant Blagojevich insisted again that he committed no crime ...”

“... a victim of political payback ...”

“No other Illinois governor has ever been impeached ...”

“... we supported him and he's disgraced us.”

“... the first U.S. governor in more than 20 years to be impeached.”

“Blagojevich did not testify before the House impeachment committee and has not offered an explanation for the criminal charges.”

“... lawmakers complained that Blagojevich had made a laughingstock out of the state.”

Did you guess it? What good eyes you have!

There is not one single, solitary word about Rod Blagojevich’s hair.

Hair that is not at issue.

Hair that is guilty, it seems, by association only.

Hair that can’t help who’s head it sits atop.

Innocent hair.

Unique hair.

Thick hair.

But, mostly: Blameless hair.

In this time of need in the political system, there has never been more of a call for a pardon.

Someone, please, inform outgoing President George W. Bush to ...

Pardon The Hair

... before he takes leave of office.

As a nation, may I humbly suggest we collectively ...

Pardon The Hair

... if the President cannot or will not.

It didn't do anything other than have the bad luck to sit atop an Illinois head, after all .....

P.S. I sure hope William Devane
doesn't think he had anything to do with this .....

Doing The Best With What You've Got

This is my internet friend, PG. He has graciously accepted my offer to mock him.

Recently, he documented his goatee growth.
You'd think with all the fatherly duties and film purchasing and photo downloading and beer brewing (ad nauseum) the dude has going on, there wouldn't be time to recount the history of his facial hair. But, he did.
Go figure. To each his own.

Boredom can come in many forms - mine is illustrated below .....

"Yeah ... black and white probably woulda been better ..."


"Hold them lips tight, you can almost make out an effort ..."


"Extra goofy? Hey ... I got that look down pat!"


"Maybe this wasn't such a good idea afterall ..."


"Grrrrrr! Urrrrrr! Grrrrrr! Where're me Lucky Charms ... ?!?"


"All I gotta say is: I'm bringin' sexy back ..."


"And what can brown do for you today, my good sir?"


"Just a tad more practice
and I'll have this 'deer caught in headlights' look nailed flat ..."


"Hair? Spiked. Tie? Knotted. Game face? On.
Bring those four hours of management meetings, baby ..."


"Hmmmmm ... I wonder:
How many days can I get away with wearin' this gray shirt
a'fore anyone notices?"


"With goofy look ............ or without this morning?
That is the question ..."


"Mom's makin' me wear orange again.
She knows I'm not a 'summer' ..."


"There are days the camera works with me
... and there are days it doesn't ..."


"... word to the 'A' ..."

"And then, the guy with the hook says to the aardvark ..."


"Why, yes.
As a matter of fact, I did just pass the Grey Poupon ..."


"If I could just frame my face
in facial hair from the eyebrows down.
Wow ... that'd be stylin' ..."


"And they say only gangstas and catchers
wear their hats backward.
I pull it off just fine ..."
