I went to the photographer this week and tried my best to look less serious this time.
So this is the all new happy me 
Gee, I just realized I’m wearing the same sweater, how embarrassing.
I do have four of these sweaters, its true.

Did the photographer flash at you just as the shutter clicked?
It must be godawful cold where you live. I’ve seldom had to wear my turtlenecks up around my jaw like that. 
Good one
It has been setled in a previous thread that my beard is a very sophisticated looking one, and not a turtle neck or a chin strap. So now you know.
Now, talking aboutr beards, I came to think about this one:
Cant recall the original site but I found this post with the same picture.
So, if you ever wondered about them flute-beards …
Gary, he didn’t use a flash so it must be my ticks I guess.

You are very ugly.
Is that better than being cruel and evil?
Marginally. Being ugly is ten times better than being cruel, but only eight times better than being evil. However, it is not better than being seedy. Seedy is the best thing to be.
I think the picture is good. It stands out on the other threads. It has a sign of life to it. You look like a sort of playful pixie to me.
I agree.
And playful pixies are cute. 
It seems odd for me to picture a pixy with a beard…I dunno.
I hear that beards are actually hard to grow, especially if you’re a woman.
Is MarcusR a woman? I guess she should be doubly congratulated for growing such a fine beard. I thought StewySmoot was a woman too. But he isn’t.
I used to be one.
The stag party beard!!! Hilarious.
You don’t look very Swedish to me. 
How does a person “look Swedish?” Is it the same way a person “looks American?”
Oh, tsk. Sure he does.
… ugh… 
Nice blonde mustache, JES. And eyebrows too!
