Never too old... I got a makeover in Chicago!

[georged]

Jon and Matt Guss approached me at the show and said they'd seen my repair videos and decided I looked old and haggard on film, but not to worry because they knew someone in downtown Chicago who could give me a new look. A friend of theirs with a makeover business.
Who wouldn't be grateful for such honest advice and guidance, right? Those guys are great. :D
So, here is the New Me. ::
(I thought it might be a tiny bit too modern & edgy at first, but they assured me on the coasts where they're from---New Jersey and Seattle---I'd fit right in.)

I'm sure I saw you in the smoking tent. Big improvement IMHO.

 

[tbradsim1]

Looks like you’ve been eating too much Cotton Candy. :rofl:

 

[briarbuck]

That's the same look my first wife used to get before she attacked...

 

[mso489]

Oh, now the whole pipe club will want to do it.

 

[3rdguy]

The lipstick color may get you a few 2nd looks.

 

[npod]

I liked you better as a grumpy pipe restorer :lol: pink is not your color, George.

 

[scloyd]

Wow...you have little ears.

 

[prairiedruid]

Friends don't let friends smoke Lamb Slices.

Disturbing, and a little exciting. Maybe next year the show could generate additional revenue from a fashion show. “Artisans of the Pipe World” strolling up and down a briar runway to the sound of bagpipes. If promoted properly I think the show organizers might rake in fifteen, twenty bucks or more.

But I just want to know why there are triplets walking down the sidewalk? Or are there more than 3 of them out of the frame?

 

[chilllucky]

I saw that too. If it's a time lapse or something, the subject held that post for a good long time. Not that I imagine she does a lot of quick moving with those contacts in.

They are the "Believers"! Don't ask,it gets ugly... :twisted:

 

[verporchting]

This is what happens from smoking Captain Black Bubblegum too often, George. I'd recommend a Latakia blend to lessen the ghosting a bit.

 

[aldecaker]

Lookin' good. Keep up the good work, Sport.

I don't want to know what's in the purple bags.

When he mentioned recently in a different thread that he had a candy striped ass I thought he was just joking.

Are you sure you haven't been aboard the Black Frigate? :mrgreen:

 

[georged]

OK... after meeting a few people on the street who thought my New Look was too feminine, I decided to make another change.
Only hardcore masculinity for me from here on out, dammit! 8) (Forget those Guss brothers... I think they were puttin' me on) :evil:
Here's the New New Me:

[jpmcwjr]

Oh, wow. I guess that defines what "muscle bound" is. Gross.
G- I like the first look just a bit better. Were those contacts hard to wear?

 

[brian64]

Either one gets you a long circus career...but I think Ringling Bros is out of business now.
