The Original Rooks’ Mustache

Friday, July 10th, 2009

There have been a few accusations thrown my way that the picture of Rooks’ mouth moss in the last post could have been photoshopped. I have to admit that there was a little photoshopping going on because I could not bear to post the original untouched image sent to me. Rooks is just too good a guy for me to completely put him on front street.

However, in honor of the outstanding integrity of this blog, I’m going to post the original untouched image in its raw form. I have no choice but to clear my name:

Rooks’ Mustache Is Glorious

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

The other night I was texted an image that left me speechless. Much like David Zoolander, the guy in the picture absolutely blew me away with his awesomeness. It was Rooks Richard and I am sure that you all will agree…he truly is a gift to women. You know it and he knows it. Is there anything a guy like him can do to look even better?

Some of you may argue that Michelangelo’s sculpture of David cannot be improved or that the Mona Lisa can’t be prettier. I would agree and include Rooks’ face with the same level of perfection as those works of art. There is just no way his face could be any more beautiful. That is….until now.

I give to you - Rooks Richard’s mustache in all its splendor:

Just looking at that glorified patch of steel wool made me think of all the great men that have come before us with the same lip spinach. We are talkin’ about some major history makers here. I thought it would only be right to post a few examples of these great historical figures that Rooks Richard takes after.

First up, we have the biker from the Village People. Might as well be Rooks’ doppelganger:

Having a broken nose isn’t so bad when you’re workin’ a soup strainer like that:

Enough said.

Rooks, you are in some mighty fine company my friend.

This Past Weekend

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

Not a whole lot to say but I thought I would share a few pics with you about last weekend. First off, David and Morgan “South Beach Posh Momma” Hinds spent their 5th anniversary in Miami for the weekend. In much more exciting news…their son Dooba Junebug has cut two teeth:

Me and Metoyer were eating at Berryhill on Friday night and got the ninth inning call that Mad Money Mike and Nikki Albanese were headed into Houston. We went to the Treehouse at the Grove, the Foundation Room at the House of Blues, and ended the night at Mama’s cafe. I ordered the heart attack on a plate with a side of clogged arteries. Mike went ahead and had a double of the same.

Sunday was a day at the pool with my niece, Rylee. She can’t speak yet but that look on her face shows how much she loves her Uncle B.

Ryan Reynolds or Burt Reynolds?

Friday, May 29th, 2009

There was a lot of chatter in the comments section of the Memorial Weekend Didn’t Disappoint post that featured a pic of BP regular - Shaun Seago. There were a few shots sent his way about the pinkness of his skin, the wrinkles, etc. While I feel like these rips were unjust, Shaun quickly defended himself with this comment:

“It just keeps gettin better. I just got a call from Ryan Reynolds agent and they want me to be his look a like.”

I responded with a comment about his confusion between Ryan Reynolds and Burt Reynolds. Then I started thinking that maybe I was wrong and that I was the one that was confused. I think it’s only fair to leave it up to you guys to judge.  Here’s a pic of Ryan Reynolds and Shaun:

I can see some resemblance but Shaun’s hair has a little too much tease to it and the pornstache is outdated. Nevertheless, there’s no doubt they are both devilishly handsome. However, I think this next picture speaks for itself. I bring to you…Burt and Shaun:

The proof is in the pudding my friends. If they aren’t doppelgangers, then I don’t know who is. Someone might want to get a DNA check to prove they weren’t separated at birth.

Brent Kyle and Drew Barrymore

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

I have to interrupt our regularly scheduled programming to bring to you a pic of a local celebrity.  Well, I can’t actually post the pics or the screen shots of the site because of internet copyright issues but I can give you the link to check it out. It’s Brent Kyle marching with his BFF/Boss - Drew Barrymore - at the Prop 8 protest rally last night. Pretty cool stuff….
