      He’s getting older. Maybe they just want a younger shot.

        Damn, I had no clue he looks like that now. He could be a captain on Starship Enterprise.

        kinda like an anglerfish in that you are lured into a false sense of security which makes the straight to the jugular scathing responses even more effective.

      Huh, apparently he lost weight last year.

      But that’s probably why, it only happened last year, and he’s not so much a public figure that he gets photographed often.
