I always thought you looked like Santa Claus Integral. I think Santa vacations in Oregon during the off season.

[QUOTE = Astronuc]I probably look like Gandalf, but 25-30 years ago, people thought I looked like Jesus. [/QUOTE]

LOL! Now I am Santa, when I was in my 20's, like Astronuc, I was told I looked like Jesus.

Which of course is utterly ridiculous, I resembled the Anglicized pictures of Jesus made just for Europeans/Americans. Clearly Jesus was not a northern European, or even Caucasian. :rolleyes:

Yeah, I'm going for the Santa look too! :smile: I was in a doctor's office one time, and a little boy pointed at me and asked his mom if I was Santa. :biggrin: That's kind of nice. He was ill and had a fever.

I need to get a Gandalf/wizard's outfit. I was at a concert on the West Coast and someone made a comment that I had forgotten my robe and pointed hat. :smile:

Yeah - :rolleyes: My hair and beard were dark brown, but the comments were definitely based on the Anglicised ideas of Jesus. On the other hand, my skin used to get really dark in the summer time since I worked outdoors and spent time at the beach. I probably got darker than half the African Americans in the US, and many were surprised at how tan I was. Interestingly my skin does not show the effects of aging.

Anyway, I have been mistaken for Jewish/Israeli, Arab, Turk, and just about any ethnic group from the Mediterranean or Middle East. :biggrin:

I to have been wanting to come up with a Gandalf costume, I have a staff

Just need a cloak (do you know how much material goes into a full cloak for some over 6' tall) and a good hat.

For the most part I keep my beard trimmed to short to do either a real good Santa or a Gandalf... Yours however..:biggrin:

Very cool staff! :cool: Yeah, you need to get a wizard's outfit to go with that.

Ian McKellen who played Gandalf in LOTR is 5' 11" so I am sure you can find a cloak for one who is 6'. It's probably fairly weighty. :biggrin:
