Holy cow, I can't recognize him at all in that pic. Unfortunately, he seems to be starting to look something like a lost brother of Elon......

I had a musician friend who dated her when she was pretty much past her acting career. Said she was a very nice person.

I hope everybody enjoyed this picture of somebody's mom . I just found it on Pinterest and thought , like Chombi1 and HelpSingularity that it really captured the early 70' vibe .
