I apologize for the shallowness of this: does John Roberts wear a toupee?

[Radio_Lady]

It's just because he bears some resemblance to men I have known (including my own husband) who lost his hair in his 20's and wore a hairpiece for a couple of years.

I really don't care one way or another, but that hairline is just too perfect. Doesn't it look like Sam Donaldson? By the way, WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO SAM DONALDSON???

1. I know what you mean

Yes, and where is Sam Donaldson these days???

And RadioLady, If you cannot get shallow in the Lounge, where can you get shallow?

:hi:

4. Hello, KitchenWitch -- Sam must be in semi-retirement somewhere.

Damn, I just heard that Chris Schenkel the sportscaster died -- my ex-husband worked with him in the 1960s. Schenkel was 82 years old.

Shallow? I LOVE shallow -- and sometimes even GOSSIP! Here's another UNREVEALED thing: My husband doesn't want me to buy tabloid magazines at the check-out counter of the supermarket. We both feel it puts money into the hands of out-and-out monster "fake" news organizations.

BUT -- when I go to have my hair cut (about every six weeks), the hairdresser ALWAYS gives me the Star or the National Enquirer and I devour it!

That's shallow!

6. I am partial to the Weekly World News

Not so much into the gossip rags...give me tinfoil hat stuff and I am happy.

[Radio_Lady]

11. I'll have to ask hairstylist Tina to subscribe to the Weekly World News --

I know I've read it, but not recently. She really shouldn't spend her money supporting such written trash, but if she does, I can't stop her.

On the other hand, I am the 66-year-old daughter of a lawyer who became a judge. I hold a B.A. degree in TV-Radio-Film (cum laude) and was pleasantly surprised that I followed AND PRETTY MUCH understood much of the confirmation hearings the last few mornings.

I'm proud of myself, intellectually. I'd like to have a date with Joe Biden

and maybe even Chuck Schumer.

It would be fun!

2. Screw is hair, where are his lips?!

Actually neocons seem to all have no lips. It's kinda creepy.

[Radio_Lady]

7. Gee, I never thought about that. Isn't that PHRENOLOGY or some

other pseudo-science? (Phrenology was studying the bumps on the head, I think.)

My son lives in Utah and I don't discuss politics with him. He's probably voting Republican, but I'm not sure. And he has what I call "thin" lips. He's still nice looking, I think.

[ghostsofgiants]

10. Haha, probably, yeah, but I always notice it about them

I first noticed it while working on a portrait of Bush.

[lumberingbear]

9. LIPS????

Where are his teeth???

Anyway,it must be his hair, because he has a bald spot in back.

[henslee]

3. Doubt it. He has a major bald spot right in the back on top.

BTW, last time I heard from Donaldson he was on Letterman, giddy about blogging and his website and connecting with the new generation. It was a bit too zealous for me, kind of spooky.

[Radio_Lady]

5. Oh, yeah. Bald spot would be covered. Male pattern baldness is

interesting, isn't it?

Let's see if I can find Sam Donaldson using the wonders of the Internet...

Back at you...

[henslee]

8. I wanta full Donaldson report. Actually, I am going bald in that Captain

Picard, both the front sides, creeping up kind of way. And its weird. You never think its going to happen to you... but it does. Sigh.

[Radio_Lady]

13. I encouraged my husband to embrace his baldness. He was very

sad in his mid-20s, lost more of it in his 30s (I met him when he was 37). He wore a toupee for a couple of years, but in his 40s, he got contact dermatitis from the double-faced tape. "Throw the G-d-damned thing away," I said, and "shave it all off!" he did -- on a pleasure trip to San Francisco. But he let it grow back again, thinking it was "too radical" for his job in sales.

Now, this was in the early 1980s, when I don't recall many men (maybe some black basketball players) who shaved their head. He finally got it right and since then, he's a "skinhead without the politics that goes with it." I love it! My grandkids love it!

Best way to go, my friend.

12. Dunno, but I've just come to realization that he is actually a Precious

Moments Figurine. I have also tried, unsuccessfully, to post a patriotic Precious Moments figurine as an example.

Can anyone help me out here? Photobucket doesn't seem to want to recognize it.

Here's the one I'm thinking of:



%^$#! Based on the message above I cannot even post the link to the image here!

[Scout1071]

14. PS - I just reviewed the tape and yes, I believe he may be wearing a rug.

Either that or one bad, very greasy haircut.

[KitchenWitch]

15. I believe to post it here it needs to be a jpg, or png

[Scout1071]

16. I tried to post the jpg and/or the URL link on photobucket, but no go.

[KitchenWitch]

17. I wish I could help you.

[Scout1071]

25. I've got nothing. Nada. Zip.

Tried it a few different ways now and those Precious Moments figurines don't seem to want to load.

[Radio_Lady]

19. Try to spell out the link. Maybe it's a copyrighted photo.

It's NOT at this page, right?

18. That's a good question...

Where IS Sam Donaldson???

[Radio_Lady]

23. OK, folks. I found the link to Sam Donaldson's blog...

A relatively recent post discusses Peter Jennings death, too.

http://blogs.health.yahoo.com/blog-for-hope/samdonaldson/

He must have had melanoma diagnosed in 1995. That's news to me.

[warrior1]

20. No but

his husband, I mean wife does.

[Radio_Lady]

21. WTF? Are you inferring that he is gay?

I'm not sure I understand your post.

[warrior1]

24. ding ding ding

It's a running joke to pissed off freepers.

[crispini]

26. Exactly!

You get the gold star!

[Ksec]

22. No but his eyes are like that lady who left hubby at the altar
