I have heard comments about going for the Rick Ross look, much to my chagrin. Like a lot of others commenting on the Walter White look, the people giving that comment are viewing things very, very narrow-mindedly.

Back to Walter White, I have received the comments as well, in spite of the fact I am not light skinned, and have no wrinkles. The only connections I have seen to the comments is my knowledgeability, and the fact I almost always walk around with an annoyed/pissed off look.
Once upon a time. The End.

Mike, I don't know what it is really called.  I called it a "vocal trill"... but right about  0:33 on this video he does it ( seems to be in all of his songs). 



 I think I get what you're talking about now. I think it may be possible to learn but in time. Another thing that I was planning to do before but this just reminds me to start sooner- is learn Spanish. I already know Russian and English which for most people are two of the hardest languages out there so I figure Spanish should come fairly easy.

I am really thankful that Breaking Bad restored Walter's full head of hair before it concluded. I was getting tired of being called that character's name - especially whenever I wore sunglasses.

I received a Heisenberg themed cap and lanyard as gag gifts at Christmas parties this year. I don't think they will get any use.

Mike E.P. I wish! I guess this coming weekend will be a 'test' of sorts because I should have the contacts by then and a couple friends want pics of me dressed as him to post on their pages, then on Sunday I'll be going to a concert with a special lady who requested that I wear a suit so I plan to 'Pitbull' it up just to see what happens. One thing's for sure is that I look more like him than some of the other guys that claim to look like him

Since I now have a long white beard, I get Santa Claus a lot!  Interesting, there are some depictions of him with MPB and others with a full head of hair!  So I don' t seem him as a blad celeb as such.  But being bald or sly is not a anti Santa look either!

I like a bald Santa. Otherwise, just too much hair!

I got Daddy Warbucks yesterday at work.  Am still not sure how to take it, although I believe the customer meant it as a compliment.

I've been compared to Steve Austin before, and someone also reckoned David Draiman.

After that comment, I googled Daddy Warbucks. A lot of actors have played him over the years, some look good, others not so much. I think  the association  may be the bald head with the suit and tie!

The character usually is depicted as being a sharply dressed man with a strong jaw and a kind face.

Take it as a compliment.

Will definitely take it as a compliment! 

Tonight my fifteen year old daughter invited a boy we had never met to dinner. He was very polite, personable, and was able to contribute to the adult conversation.  The he says to me, "You know who you look like?" You guessed it.  "I almost called you Mr. White."  I never got that before.  After dinner, I went upstairs and trimmed my goatee very short.

Someone come up to me and was enthusiastic about my resemblance to a person of whom I'd not heard and told them as much. They seemed puzzled and explained that this was a famous Italian. Confused, I looked it up...I even found a picture.....of the statue of a very bald Roman Senator who died in about 200 B.C. I'm not sure how to interpret that. I can't decide whether it's the stone stature or the lack of chiseled hair that bears the resemblance. Certainly I never wander around with a wreath of leaves on my head....
