What is that? About 4'2"? Of course, he has to have a micro-baby-grand so his fingers look normal in comparison.

I'll bet you were stunning in that dress.

Ha...I was playing but only my hands got in the picture. It was made in an elegant Victorian living room in San Francisco's Pacific Heights. I don't know the woman in the photo, I think the photographer found her. I'll try to find a copy (somewhere in this house) and take a picture of it.

Think about it.

Of course he's buddy buddy with the guy that runs the National Enquirer.

Of course he's been involved in pro wrestling.

Of course he hosted a reality TV show.   And another.

Of course he chases porn stars.

Of course he gilds everything in cheap gold plate

Of course he sold get rich quick schemes on infomercials.  


I'm probably missing a few.

The fake tan.

And possibly the combover.


I need to consult the judges on the combover. It's definitely fake, but I'm not sure the class angle is there like with the others.

Maybe we could make an exception for a Bosie?

The combover is a close call, but I'm still gonna say it skews low-class. It smacks of low self-esteem, and that runs counter to the silver spoon aesthetic.

Case in point: Prince William. When he started losing his hair, I thought, "If anybody can afford the finest in hair transplants, weaves, prescription treatments, Rogaine, and such, it would be the British royal family. And if anybody is going to spend his life on camera--heck, he's going to spend his life on coins and bills--it's this young man.

Nope. He's got enough confidence to be who he is. And he's also got a herd of stylists warning him about the consequences of failed baldness treatments, which is surely what Trump is actually trying to cover up.

I'd imagine that the most appealing look for a man of Trump's age and follicles would be to shave it or to go really short and almost-shaved, but he probably has scarring that would make that impossible.

How about naming his kids Barron and Tiffany?

For reasons that I do not fully comprehend, in TrumpWorld, Tiffany is She Who Must Not Be Named.

OK, I promised you my concert-poster version of the Trump/white piano photo.




I'm not in that picture, so here's a non-cropped version. Me with long hair in my 20's!

RP wins the internet today.

I'm tellin' ya, it's the black piano that does it....
