Walkman,

This is the classic version of a Verdi.  All those other pictures are some new variation.
Just search the above name and many images will come up.

Of course I would like to see you grow longer.  When I worked in the "corporate" world
this style commanded attention.  It is a very distinguished look. Is really neat when you
are the only one in a large office with it.

Hopes this helps you out.  Does your handle have anything to do with the Sony Walkman?
I still have one, and it works.

Yep, that's the real deal there.  Giuseppe Verdi's beard varies somewhat between photos as well, but that's the basic style with the shorter sides and longer mustache and goatee areas.  It actually may be a bit overwhelming on me.  I'm a big guy already.  People used to say that I looked like Dan Fouts when I was younger and had the brown beard.  I look like an ex-football player now, if you know what I mean.  LOL

The Sony Walkman actually wasn't the inspiration behind my handle, but I'm from that original MTV generation, so it definitely fits.  I like your beard, Keith.  You have a real Viking look in your photos, especially from the side.  Very cool.  Was your beard blond previously?

Days of growing my beard
“Thus we have now for many centuries triumphed over nature to the extent of making certain secondary characteristics of the male (such as the beard) disagreeable to nearly all the females—and there is more in that than you might suppose.”  - Screwtape (a senior demon),  The Screwtape Letters (1942) by C. S. Lewis
