Richard Dean Anderson - golden oldies!

[wraithfodder]

Regrettably, I have wasted half an hour just perusing YouTube (started with a caterpillar video) and found this rather (now) embarrassing video of Richard Dean Anderson singing on the Dinah! show (1979). Not so much for singing talent, but gah, the outfit! Oh yes, those of us around in the70s wore that kind of stuff. Fortunately, most of us don't have it immortalized on YouTube though ;)

The hair-do is not that embarrassing, but the suspenders...! I confess to having a pair of suspenders (a la Mork) that I wore incessantly. ::blushes furiously:: I have a step-brother who tries to razz me about it, which forces me to whip out the picture of him during his Preppie phase: pink polo shirt and palest lime green trousers with penny loafers (no socks).

Ah, Mork and Mindy! That's where I recognize those suspenders from! Bwahahahah!!!! Oh my, that Preppie photo sounds... blackmailable ;)

And then there is the one from a couple years earlier where he had tried to grow his hair long enough to have a pony-tail. All my step-brothers have really thick, curly hair (and I hate them for it). When his hair reach 6 inches he gave up... because he had grown a really awesome afro.

yeah, sucks how guys have thick hair, gorgeous eyelashes....

[strange-magic.livejournal.com]

Ahaha! I've seen that before!

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

I think I have too, but couldn't help but share. TV is dulls-ville tonight and, well, it's very amusing ;)

[strange-magic.livejournal.com]

It is very amusing. Kinda makes you feel embarrassed for him. *L*
yeah, Saturday TV usually sucks. I'm just sitting here drawing up another weirdo creature on my tablet.

WEll, back then that kind of fashion was all the rage. I mean, what John Travolta wore in Saturday Night Fever was fantastic then; wouldn't be caught dead in it now. Well, then again, I have seen a lot of 70s fashion cropping up in the stores again. Shudder. The evil that men do come back to haunt them ;)

Ahahah! LOL, yeah and RDA did sport the mullet for god knows how long too. All business in the front, party in the back! ;)
I've had this pic for so long. I think it's hysterical:

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

That's hysterical!

[lamaudite.livejournal.com]

Wow! LOL I'd never seen that one before. Thanks for sharing. Damn, I can't stop giggling!

[strange-magic.livejournal.com]

You're quite welcome. ;)

[flingslass.livejournal.com]

Is that his body?

[strange-magic.livejournal.com]

Lol, it probably is. His stomach seems look the same from when it was shown on SG1, so I would say it probably was... well.. maybe. ;)

[lamaudite.livejournal.com]

He's even got the tennis wristbands on too! What a rocker, man! LOL

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Oh wow, you're right!

[zikade.livejournal.com]

lol! He looks cool! And swinging with white pants, whoa!

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

And white pants are tough to pull off, fashion-wise ;)

[illman.livejournal.com]

Yikes! I sometimes wonder what we'll think about today's fashion in thirty years time...

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

We'll be cringing, no doubt ;)

You are clearly the most brilliant person in the universe. That has made my morning.

I think I may love you for posting this because it has made an uber crap day go to fantastic =]

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. Hope my day goes better than yours ;)
