That is an insult.

My ears are a normal size.
It is my head that is Small.

I had to google him, but I recognise him now.

No - never been suggested but I can see it a bit in his younger pictures (ie darker hair). It is the eyebrows and the chin when smiling.

I once traveled across Australia in an old 4WD and along the way had two Japanese backpackers ride with me who both used to laugh at me and say 'Dan Akroyd'. Never got that one.

You do look worried here. Is that because of that ill advised purchase?

Ha! No, that pre-dated the purchase. Just tired.

I expected more along the lines of aadhills's post from you, J, but nice to see a cute kid pic instead.:) btw, I wanted a CS uni back in the day soooo bad. You wore it well.

Didn't we have a similar thread a while back? I seem to recall Jsharr starting off as an amoeba?
