Can I vote for all of the above?

drat, dave! i was gonna do that!

the reality, however, is:

a) a pony tail would make you look like a sissy loser.
b) an earring would just be silly (unless it was this one)(and please don't forget: left is right and right is wrong).
c) a soul patch would be pining desperation for youth.
d) can you even grow facial hair?

the pony tail would be most academically viable. let's shoot for that.

Soul patch, but only so long as it's not meager and French-looking. If it works for Cherok, it can work for you.

you should probably have an earring. i'd get a good laugh out of that.

soul patch

Definitely the Pony tail. It's 2 for the price of 1: it's formal during the day, yet when untethered it allows for wild and reckless head thrashing.

If chosen, will you go all out or settle for a mullet?

None of the above!!!!! The goatee has been tried and found wanting, and the other choices cannot be comprehended by my feeble imagination.

Start with a combover. After you complete that, then we'll talk more.

I vote soul patch. As I wrote here I'm pretty sure it's still in style.

Pony tails are for the hipies of the 60's and 70's. Earrings came into fashion in the 80's. The ninties were characterized by bleached hair and goatess. The soul patch is the answer for a new millenium.

Absolutely definitely the ponytail, with a simple single gold earring. The patch goes over your eye. Full face beard, with smoking pieces of cannon fuse tied in strategically, yet arrr-tfully. With regard to accessorization, pistols and cutlass are de rigeur; parrots are optional, and probably over the top.

I predict this as the new sartorial standard for all conservative bloggers.

I find myself in shock that I am in agreement with Mrs. Swnid in her vote for none of the above.

The SWIND blog stands for intellectual stimulation(even though I don't always agree with the opinion expressed herein). Any affectations of "trendiness" would very likely diminish said blog.

Definitely the earring. It makes it seem like you were at least once cool and it doesn't make it seem like you're trying to hard to be cool now. Of course, a tatoo would work too.

Soul patch. . .hands down.

Goatee. It would go well with the sax.
