Either Oscar Wilde or Dorothy Parker, depending on whether I felt like London or New York on that particular day.

How can you stand that creepy "hair-cut" he has?
He ought to bald himself!

:smile: Hair cut? He has a hair cut? I thought it looked more like the few hairs he had, he just kept wrapping around his head. You'd think with all the money he has, he'd be able to afford hair implants or a good quality toupee if he's too vain to just go bald.

I wasn't thinking about him for his company, just focused on getting a good meal out of it.

On the other hand, tycoons like D.T. get away with their weirdo look; people just call'em eccentric instead..
