Thought you all would have gotten the ones highlighted.

Then additional musical ones for Raz...

Can't get 'em all I guess.

Here's some guidelines for handicapping me.

*If it's a Christian musician or singer, but they name a band in parentheses, odds are against me.

*Rock Musicians have to be old enough to have made it by the 1990s, or the odds are against me.

*If the person is listed as a "Rock singer" and they are under the age of 50, bet against me. Guitarists and drummers, not so much.

*For hip-hop artists, odds are against me.

*If it's a Bluegrass musician, but they are under age 40, odds are I won't know them. If they are over 40, odds are with me.

*If it's an actor under the age of 40, odds are against me, and they are more against me the younger they get.

*I've never followed any of the daytime or prime-time soap operas, so odds are against me unless the names are huge.

*Sports figures are even odds at best, but I have a slight advantage for tennis players and Olympians.

There are always exceptions, but these are the general tendencies.

That is pretty consistent with what I follow.

I've definitely seen more flattering photos of Kristen Bell.

LALTS, I thought the same thing. Even the website for the local paper had a much nicer pic.

Sheesh, just going for something a little different....
this better?

Uh, yeah! Much better.

A slight improvement, yes.

In fact, go back and look at the photo you originally posted and tell us we're wrong.

It's pouring rain here now. Guess I won't be mowing.

You could head out to the garage for a smoke.

But a SLIGHT improvement???

Original photo was for underachievers.

The guilt would kill me. I have to follow up on some job leads.

I was being sarcastic, it was obviously a vast improvement. Also, even underachievers didn't deserve that first pic.

Just about time to hit the bricks. Hazzuh!

Well then...carry on.

It's probably not politically correct to call someone Peter puffers right?
