You're like a human stick bug, blending in seamlessly with your environs to conceal yourself from would-be predators! Admittedly it was probably easier to pull off on a dead tree than, say, a Denny's during morning rush.

Al Stewart's "Time Passages" started playing in my head when I saw this. Makes me wonder how many cool pictures of moments I don't remember are languishing in shoe boxes and forgotten picture books....

Well, actors are always looking for ways to branch out, and it was around that time you would soon have a part on Star Trek - The Next Generation. I'd watch the early seasons in reruns on WUAB 43 then flip over to WEWS 5 and get double Diedrich Bader! I think you could have rocked the space skant.

Considering the stories I heard about those season 1 & 2 uniforms not breathing well, baring ones legs would probably be a relief under those stage lights. Albeit men's calves have been known to drive the ladies wild. Henry VIII was also known for showing off his.
