What I look like, apparently

Thanks to Susannah, not just for painting it but for portraying me bathed in a glowing nimbus of golden light.

Hm, if Abe Lincoln had been a acoustic rocker, you two could have been twins!

Well, except he still would have been the tall one...

Lincoln's nimbus was more purplish.

"It's in the Smithsonian!"
. . .right next to Rutherford B. Hayes' chi.

Actually, you do usually have a beautiful golden glow around you when you play. It's a little bit spooky.

Huh, I always thought that was just clever back-lighting.

You know what this totally reminds me of? Remember that time we all went camping and we were sitting around the fire drinking and I decided to get up and go to the outhouse without a flashlight and I got totally lost and ended up wandering around in the dark for 6 hours? And I curled up and fell asleep in the root crater at the base of a windblown pine tree and woke up the next morning with hypothermia because I hadn't taken any warm clothes with me when I went into the woods? And I was sitting there all shivering and cold and wet and I looked up and you were coming through the woods with the sun behind you, playing your... oh. Hold on. That never happened. Never mind.
