I thought a bit about of whom Nathan reminds me as a matter of style and outlook, and googled for an image of the chap, and voila. Yes, the attire is a bit formal and dated, but put that aside. I wonder if Nathan can figure out who the chap is.

Is it a young Ralph Waldo Emerson? That looks like his nose and facial structure. If so, I appreciate the implied compliment but I'm not sure I'd say the comparison fits, exactly.

Well done. Smiley But then I expected that of you, you bookworm you. Not being interested in sex has its advantages. I had time to read a lot back when too, when I was sexually confused. There are silver linings to much of what we think is otherwise hell, looking back. And so it goes.

That's awesome opebo, and fair comment to boot (including the balding, bare chest (albeit mine is considerably more hirsute) and tight jeans thing - all of which is my standard "uniform"), except that I would like to think I didn't look quite that bad in the before pic. Smiley

Skippy too.

For some reason I always imagined opebo as cutting a somewhat Herrickian figure, minus of course the religiosity. Perhaps it's the combination of the monarchism and the association of Herrick's moustache style with seventies sybaritism:

His brow is far too low, Nathan.  I look at once quite Waspy and a bit Ashkenazi Jewish, not at all like that fellow.

Mildly interesting note: the girl in that pic has a hobby of speed-drawing dinosaurs (link to her account for those too lazy to type it in).

Anyway, when opebo posts in this thread, it tends to turn into a narcissistic creepy old dude circle jerk (as do many things surrounding opebo; what are the odds this makes it into his sig at some point?). To break that trend:

Also, with any other poster, I might suggest that the mental connection between opebo and Robert Herrick runs through Ron Jeremy who is a Herrick look-alike and much more of an opeboesque figure than Herrick. Given that the person posting that was Nathan, though, that seems unlikely.

I'm really not much of a 'good time charley' like Ron Jeremy.  Nor am I much like this fellow:


Though certainly seeing photos like that gives me hope for mankind and the future.

I knew that Herrick had a porn 'stache (I was trying to say so tactfully), but I wasn't thinking of Mr Jeremy by name, no.

Although now that you mention it, the resemblance is uncanny. I Googled 'robert herrick ron jeremy' and other people have noticed it too. Search for 'herrick' in this page, for instance. Or 'jeremy' in this one. The second link, incidentally, also taught me that Ovid's cognomen was 'Naso', a fact whose implications I still need time to process.

His Facebook photo. Prior to that, I pictured him as older, though.

Wow, I must say this is a lot more flattering impression for our sole young female representative to have of moi than the usual fat sex tourist in flip-flops!

This couldn't be further from the truth, DC.  I never hold hands with anybody, nor do I ever dress like that:
