Somehow, for years, my hair has been made fun on in one way or another. I’ll readily admit that some of my hair styles have been a bit our there and worthy of discussion and criticism.  Most notably was the cut I had for about 3 months in 1995, years before I would sport “The Pete.”

Keep in mind at that time George Clooney was at the height of his career starring in “ER.” I remember seeing his hair style and thinking to myself, “I think I can pull that off.” Well, I was wrong. Dead wrong!  And I have the picture to prove it.

There are two remarkable things about this picture:

1) It was taken on this very day 14 years ago.

2) It was taken 15 minutes after I had gotten down on one knee in the middle of an ice rink and asked Brandi to marry me.

To this day I can’t believe she said “Yes” with me sporting that haircut. Once again, proof that she must have really loved me.

**UPDATE** My friend Ian just sent me this pic. Striking similarities.
