you have the versatile countenance of an actor. ever thought about starting out at your local community theatre? lee marvin got his start that way. btw, long hair makes anybody look better, and it makes the already attractive look simply smashing.
Actually as a matter of fact I was supposed to play "Baby John" in the local production of "West Side Story". Halfway through rehearsals they make me an extra and put me in the sharks. Making me learn all over from scratch. In the mean time I was also involved in JROTC at my high school and I had one saying YOU HAVE TO CUT YOUR HAIR and the other saying YOU CAN'T CUT YOUR HAIR. So I basically said "forget this, I got an invitation to be on the school paper". So I quit both, became the only freshman on the school paper, quickly became the most vital member of the newspaper. You see they had a couple editors, a couple reporters, a couple layout guys, etc. I did everything plus I worked tech support, which was really crazy when the server went down and I had to constantly transfer people's files over flash drive over to other computers and a master copy on an external hard drive. Then I quit that when that drama with the sports editor happened (which I'm sure is still fresh in your memory).
It's wonderful being so talented and yet so rejected (not to brag)
