    Looking sharp young man. Grew a beard when I went camping. I was about 25 at the time. For some reason it never got shaved off. That was almost 50 years ago.
    Yes, I am a young 78.

    I had a beard when I met my wife in 1974. Except it was black then. And I had a beard for years after.

    Then one year I got tired of the beard and wanted to see what was underneath.

    So I shaved one half of my face. I went to Mary and turned one half of my face towards her, the half with the beard and said, With? Then turned the other side and asked, Without? With? Or Without? I thought it was funny. Mary did not.

    Do all criminals have beards, I wonder?

    I don't see a sea of beards on Wall street.. ..or..

    I think Mary is right though..

    Maybe.

    Did Gary omit the numbers on purpose?

    I have decided to grow a beard. It has been many 30 years since I last had one and that one was dark brown.

    And I have been taking selfies to document the experiment.

    To further amuse myself, I like to process the selfies in Prisma, a fantastic set of iPhone (and Android) filters. And that's OK. But why stop there when you have Xara, the greatest program for this kind of image. I edited a copy of the photo using the FX > Polarized Grayscale to bring up the contrast. And then added this over the Prisma processed image and added a Circular transparency reversing the values to make the inside transparent and the outside opaque.

    I like it. My wife thinks I look like a criminal.

    Which filter was selected in Prisma before processing in Xara?

    I really don't remember now.
