So I've changed my look a bit. I've always been someone who didn't care what I looked like (and I still don't). I went through a phase as a senior in high school where I only wore white undershirts. It was great. I could be a complete slob when I ate and it did not even matter 'cause I could just bleach it. When I lived in Lubbock I only wore pajama pants and stained or ripped tshirts, and velcro shoes from Walmart. My wife, however, has helped me turn a corner. Apparently people make assumptions about you based on how you look! So I've decided to help them make a better judgment of me. Rather than thinking that I'm a "white trash slob" (as true as that may be) I'm now shooting for an average northwesterner.
Anyway, everything I've said to this point is superfluous. For my real reason for writing is to show you some pictures of what people have said that I look like...in a few days I'll try to post some pictures of different points in my life where I may or may not fit the description...

First of all, I think that with my new goatee I look like Mr. Tumnus.











Do I raise you up? Here's the bad news, the most common thing I get at work is Josh Groban! Sucks for me.



















With my goatee I've heard a few shaggy comparisons. I think thats a good one 'cause I do enjoy a scooby snack every once in a while. And by scooby snacks I mean The Pot.














Jess' grandma yesterday said I looked like Van Gogh...what?




















And if I were to be honest I think that I not only look like Mr. Tumnus, I'm more of a blend of the faun and the Italian stallion...but thats just me.

i still think that you look the most like jesus. if you just grow that goatee out into a beard and put on jess' trusty white robe, i think you will look just like the saviour. and as your sister, i would support you in every way, if you need followers, i would totaly worship you. plus, as an added bonus, you get all different color sashes...blue when youre at the passover meal, red when your talking with people in the village...

Thank you my child. Just remember that the cost of discipleship is great. The road is narrow that leads to life, but the road that leads to destruction is wide as an elephants ass.

LOL. good one jesus. your words are rich, they pierce the heart.

what's with you Woods kids and thinking that people look like Jesus? I don't get it. THough you do know that I think you SOUND like Jesus when you make your weiner face. "Wide as an elephant's ass" is almost as good as "Lucky Ho-Bag".

Your look was good today. I liked the pants. they were... not you at all, but they looked good. It will be hard to get those who know you to accept the new, cool you, but hold strong and know that the cooler you look, the more sweet sweet lovin you will get from your focksy wife...

You are totally like one of those guys on Queer Eye. Or Jesus. Pick one.

"What in the name of Me is going on here?" ~ Jesus

what kind of pants did you wear? like bell bottoms or something? under your white robe?

they were a light wash boot cut jean with a light spattering of white paint with black birds. I know... now that I describe them, they sound a little... how do we say it... like something a gay would wear... but he didn't look homosexual. he looked like a rockin version of Josh Grobin (Sorry. I have thought this since I saw him for the first time on Oprah a few years back...)

at least people don't tell me that you look like bette midler.
