We already knew who Partisan's Tish darling is, now we know about Kush. 8)

Tri-Me, why all those don't think I'm this and that? I don't think at all. :wink: (besides, one goes with the others, no? Oh. Never mind) I saw that picture of him. Great.

Did you ever sew this one. He was cuUute.

Shouldn't that first pic you posted of Leonard be in Humphrey's thread, 'Picture of a Guy Smoking', Tchoc? Strange how different your response is in that thread to this, Tri-Me :shock: .

Diane :wink:

I love this photo of Leonard. I love black-and-white photography, anyway, but his is the kind of face and eyes that translate so well with it.

Well, it really is a sign of the times, back then people smoked everywhere. A client told me that her Dr. , many years ago, told her to go home have a couple of cigarettes and relax. Dr.'s would smoke in their offices. Here in NB it is illegal to smoke in bars, enclosed spaces.

Take away the cigarette, leave it there the photo is still Leonard Cohen who's art inspires and motivates me, takes me on emotional roller coaster rides. To me he is very attractive. His face is very interesting.

Tri-Me, I know, I know. It's just that I read this thread straight after Humphrey's one, and so noticed the cigarette, and got to thinking how insignificant such 'vices' are when you 'know' someone (that is not to underplay the health implications).

Yes, his face is as interesting, and his expression as intense, as befits him. How could Leonard Cohen possibly ever look any different to how he does? I hadn't seen that pic you just posted 8) .

Lizzy, yes, I also love black and white portraits cos they emphasise facial expression. The ones Jarkko recently posted are more great examples. I like the effect of the magenta cast... http://www.leonardcohenfiles.com/boile.html

Yes ~ Those are great... I'm seeing them for the first time. I really like the one where he's looking 'far off' [as though with interest at something in particular in the distance, with his guitar lifted higher up]... he's looking 'stage left' ~ a very good series of photos.

That is an excellent piece of self-observation work!

That which we find attractive in our fellow man and woman
is, in fact, of course, completely determined by evolution.
And vice-versa.

Bi-pedalism, for example, was of great significant in human evolution.
And its selection both drove, and was driven by, our great appreciation
for, and understanding of, our fellow woman's, and man's, buttocks.

Likewise, undoubtedly, the philtrum.

While I can not myself confess to ever having been, or at least not
consciously, attracted to anybody's philtrum, - or at least not
to the extent that it negatively impacted my grammar
(--as in: "between his nose and upper lip his")
- neither can I for a second doubt that such an attraction does in fact exist,
and that it is experienced by normal healthy perverts, and that it played
some significant, if not in the least bit understood role in human evolution.

But the philtrum's importance to human evolution is crystal clear
when you consider that all superior species, such as dogs and
Leonard, have pronounced philtrums, whereas inferior characters
such as these:
http://www.systemfehler.de/comix/bush.htm
are "flat-faced".

Whence undoubtedly the otherwise inexplicable expression:
"a bald-faced liar".
(- see the link for the dictionary illustration of the term.).

You are a trip :lol: , Greg.

I love it that some of you occasionally bring what seems to me the spirit of the old Ng.

Hi Tri-me,

Thanks for your reply. Sorry I haven't been back online for awhile.
Just to let you know, I was not in your class. My school was
West End Public School in Kirland Lake, ON. Mr. Wyatt's class.
What a strange coincidence though. I think we also did Edmund
Fitzgerald. Perhaps Gordon Lightfoot's songs were part of the
curriculum. Our teacher also used a lot of Beatles lyrics in class.

Cheers,
Sherry

LOL Greg too bad the answers to the test are not provided, I can't tell the difference. Is there a trick?
There is a very strong acu-puncture point at the top of the philtrum stomach meridian.
Here's another one for you
stomion - the vertical area of the face that bisects the horizontal lips, it is the upper 1/2 of the area from subnasale (right under nose) to the menton (chin)
His is awesome, I could spend a week there.
