What Happened to Cal Thomas's Face?

Has anyone noticed that Cal Thomas looks strange lately with his dyed black hair and apparent face lift and/or Botox?

He used to look like a distinguished older gentleman.

So many guys just scratch and piddle with it.

Uh.... We're talking about mustaches. Right?

[Mamzelle]

Well, if you're unsure, you could always provide a graphic.

LOL!

[DLfromthedesert]

Patsa!!!! Are you of Italian descent???

"Some guys think that they slim the face--you see them a lot on chubbies."

Yes, that's true, you do. And they don't look all that bad, but you just have to *think* about them too much, and I very much dislike vanity in men. I can tolerate it in women much better.

I still remember the first t-shirt with words on it I ever saw, and it was very clever. It had "ytinav" printed on it, so you'd see it correctly when you looked in the mirror.

[Mamzelle]

No, but most of my food (cooking) is. It's a good show, and he's a good cook. Not silly like so many TV chefs.

I used to think beards looked good on dark-haired men. Now they look like terrorists.

"The one look I can never understand is the little skinny little beard right on the jaw line. Can't see having a beard and still having to shave every day!"

Maybe it means they intend to marry eight different wives!

[Mr. Brightside]

The best one I could find quickly. The rest would get this thread *pulled.*

Would the other thing it's called start with "a shock absorber for..."?

I saw Thomas live probably around fifteen years ago. He was bald then, and had a toupee that looked like it came off a Ken doll Halloween costume.

"What Happened to Cal Thomas's Face?"

Maybe he should try a little lipstick, like our other favorite Thomas?

[PJ-Comix]

Cal Thomas needs to grow that trademark moustache back. He looks naked without it.

Some guys think that they slim the face--you see them a lot on chubbies. And a lush moustache can help the look of someone with a big beak. But--in general, I don't like face-hair. So many guys just scratch and piddle with it. Makes the onlooker feel itchy.

There was a time when facial hair was the only accepted public facade for men.

[Mamzelle]

But in the early 1800's it was not (think Napolean). And George Wash, Jefferson, etc. did not have hairy faces.

Ah, the dreaded trimming-mistake-shave-off. That happens to my quite frequently, especially when trying to even up the sideburns. The Hitler-stache also once happened--I was trying to trim my stache which made me look a little too much like Stalin. I go from one ruthless dictator to another. I had to abort.

It was once fashionable to be morbidly obese like President Taft, or publicly intoxicated like President Pierce as well. Washington et al were into the french fashions; Hamilton was known as a dandy which would be similar to the metrosexual/androgynous look of today. Fashions change--thankfully.
