Sometimes it's nice to know that even though you, dear reader, and I, are aging rapidly, other members of the human race, even people we admire, are doing the same.

To wit: http://www.fouryoureyes.com

Fouryoureyes is a vintage eyeglass store on Venice Blvd. in Los Angeles. It's motif is definitely 1960s and the owner, a fella named Dave Hart, has clientele that include lots of guys who were famous for whatever reason during the 60s. This is usually, but not always, formerly famous rock 'n rollers.

Click the photo gallery and check out the aging process in action. But I'm WARNING you: Mark Hamill is not aging gracefully. To say nothing of the Electric Prunes.

However, the point I wanted to make about this is: Look at the owner, Dave Hart, in all of these pictures. After a page or two, you begin to think that Dave is nothing more than a cardboard cutout. Same EXACT smile, picture after picture. It's eerie.
