That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for December 07, 2023

/// Here’s a Semi-nude Male, (no I.D.).

Is he padding his briefs? It could be.

A Case Study is shown

of a face we have known.

Looks like Zappa, without his goatee.

He’s the complete package: The buff build, the stylish hair, the sexy swimsuit

And well forgotten.

“Ladies, I own a Chevy Impala.”

my eyes are up here…ladies!

Anna had to paint him. It was the only way to keep him from hitting on her.

Polish wore underwear, who knew?

“Gawrsh, Ma’am. I know you’re a lady artist and all, and want to see my muscles for artsy reasons. I get ‘em pretty much lifting stuff around the farm.

“But here I stripped down to my skivvies and ain’t going no farther. No, Thaddeus, I say to myself, that ain’t moral! And yes, Ma’am, that is a golumpki in my pocket. I wasn’t sure if artist models get fed on the job, and packed a snack.”

The films of the brothers Marx/ have largely been no more than larks/but this hunk of beef/ ain’t comic relief:/ he’s so hot that he throws off sparks !

Yes, I’m in packaged goods.

I am going to try really hard to forget this guy.

I’m a little teapot….

When asked if he had talents beyond underwear modeling, Groucho Marx replied “You Bet Your Life!”

Frank Zappa in his modeling days.

“The nicest thing about my brown briefs is a quick spray of Right Guard, and they’re good to wear another day.”

Freddie. The explantation of why, if you use a dating site, you don’t use the cheapest one.

So, uh, I was hoping you might like more than just my thoughts. You know. Just sayin’. Ya think, maybe…

“I know it’s a lot, the hair, the bod, when you’re staring at a demigod” You’re Welcome

Good one Steve! Speedo! :D

It was a well-kept family secret in the Zappa family, that great-grandfather, Zoltán, was a real basket case as a live model.

No matter who comes on here and posts research that says otherwise, this painting is really titled – Ron Jeremy – The Thin Days

Best that he remain forgotten; along with poor Gummo

The Captain’s annoyance was showing, His fans were all so unknowing, But he was doing his part, By freely posing for art, That’s why Captain Spaulding must be going.

Tom Jones trying out a new sock.

More like ‘Slowo’, if you ask me.

In any case, time for the eye bleach.

If you think that flat-top is hard to maintain, you should see where else he’s got one.

He tried out for the role of Tarzan but lost out because of his frizzy hair………

Sacha Baron Cohen in between gigs. :)

Study of a semi-nude male: 

Paste (including the quote marks) 

"Category:1885 paintings in France" Wikimedia 

(syntax supported by the Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, and Ecosia search engines) in the browser address bar (or search for it using one of those search engines) and choose the first Category: found, and once there find the text string 1986, and click its link for info and links that point to more info (perhaps best viewed using the Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox browsers, which can automatically translate most webpages if necessary) about this roughly jumbo envelope size painting. 

Again, a slightly larger strip image is shown by merely clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s THROWBACK THURSDAY: MASTERPIECE #1330 (10/28/15) (December 6, 2023) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment. I have added a comment there (awaiting Mr. Melcher’s approval) pointing to info about this artist I used to point to here. So far, 2 works by her have been used here (3 times total, including this Throwback Thursday repeat), the October 28, 2015, strip being its first use. GoComics has deactivated the hyperlinks and removed the new lines in my comment there; but, perhaps the text remains informative. The October 30, 2015, strip has the prior by her.

if i go in the water will my hair drown me? where is the nude beach?

Off topic: At the bar a high school friend tends, today’s Brewer’s Choice is Call Me Ish-Pale.

That’s not what “Drop and give me 20” means …

“It’s not that I’m hungry for fame—

You don’t need to mention my name.

But perhaps I could fit—

Even if poorly lit—

My head into this picture frame."
