He looks like somebody...I can't decide exactly whom
The recent creative challenge with our defunct calendar page: Some writing from the front bled through to the back. I decided to try to connect the  lines and make a face. I also decided to draw with my non dominant hand (left hand as an adult. As a child and adolescent I was fairly ambidextrous. Kids who played baseball with me would heartily agree that whether I threw left or right handed, the results were wildly  errant and abjectly short of the target.  Now isn't this about the longest parenthetical you've read in quite some time?)
So I drew left handed using what the paper gave me. Does this guy look a bit like William H Macy? I thought maybe he or Ronald Reagan resemble this mug. Another suggestion was James Garner. Your thoughts?

"W" comes to mind. I think it's the eyes. But now that you mention William Macy....

hmmmm "W" I can sort of see that. This face is sort of Rohrsach ink blot in its openness to interpretation.

I vote for James Garner -- or could be an embarrassed R Nixon?
:o)
