I find this to be 100% Stallone-ish:

I agree. In fact if you weren't implying that it is Paul, I would have thought it was Sylvester Stallone!

Thank you B!! Thats the one!! Have you seen "Paul's" hand? A bit grotesque to say the least. Our "Paul" was a bit of a bare-knuckle-boxing neanderthal in his spare time!

LOL! bare-knuckle boxer definitely describes JPM... ;D I'm getting lost as to what the implication is here? Did Sly stand-in for JPM in the early days? Were those old images a collage of faces? WTH? Did the Neanderthal version of JPM go on to become Sly and ... I don't get it.

Just a random thought on the matter sly = lys - as in fleur-de-lys.
Puzzled - Your guess is as good as mine. I think that's why we're all here!

I think that's why we're all here! it's lis and they are hyacyiths...just kidding. let's see what NASA is up to w/ this: "LISA is intended to measure gravitational waves by using laser interferometry over astronomical distances. It will use three spacecraft arranged in an equilateral triangle to form a giant Michelson interferometer with arms about 5 million kilometers long. When a gravitational wave disturbs the space-time field between two of the spacecraft, small differences in the relative lengths of the arms should be measurable. The main goal of LISA is to study gravitational waves in detail. In this effort the LISA mission will test Einstein's theory of gravity. " wiki

Did the Neanderthal version of JPM go on to become Sly and ... I don't get it. Boxing. Hmmmmm. As usual, our friend Roger Waters is lurking. On the heavily PID/PWR RADIO K.A.O.S., the last song is "The Tide Is Turning". During the fade, (at 4:07) he says "the tide is turning SYLVESTER". Wiki has an "official" explanation for this: The album contains a Morse code message at the beginning and end of the album. This is the "hidden verse" of "Tide is Turning":
"Now the past is over but you are not alone Together we'll fight Sylvester Stallone We will not be dragged down in his South China Sea Of macho bullshit and mediocrity" This verse, expressing Waters' dislike of the way Sylvester Stallone movies glorify violent actions, is alluded to in the final spoken line of the song, "The tide is turning, Sylvester."This explanation jives with the tone of the song, but now I'm wondering if that's the WHOLE story... "I used to think the world was flat Rarely threw my hat into the crowd I felt I had used up my quota of yearning Used to look in on the children at night In the glow of their Donald Duck light And frighten myself with the thought of my little ones burning But, oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning The tide is turning Satellite buzzing through the endless night Exclusive to moonshots and world title fights Jesus Christ, imagine what it must be earning Who is the strongest Who is the best Who holds the aces The East Or the West This is the crap our children are learning But oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning The tide is turning Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning Now the satellite's confused 'Cause on Saturday night The airwaves were full of compassion and light And his silicon heart Warmed to the sight of a billion candles burning Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning The tide is turning Billy I'm not saying that the battle is won But on Saturday night all those kids in the sun Wrested technology's sword from the hand of the war lords Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning The tide is turning Sylvester Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning"

By RawMahdiyah educate-yourself.org/ww/sanpakueyes16feb06.shtmlFeb. 16, 2006 thewomenwarriors.net/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=154When a baby is born, the iris, or colored part of the eye, is usually beautifully balanced between the upper and lower eye lids. It touches the upper and lower lids, so that no white, or sclera, shows above or below. The sclera is visible only to the left and right of the iris. This indicates a balanced and healthy nervous system. The baby is alert and in generally sound health. When a person dies, the iris rises so that it partially disappears under the upper eyelid. The white sclera shows below. In Oriental Medicine, we call such an appearance sanpaku, which means "three whites" showing. Three whites, or sanpaku, is common among those who are ill or exhausted. It is most severe among those who are gravely ill and approaching death.Three whites show that a person's nervous system is seriously imbalanced. Such a person's mind, body, and spirit are out of harmony with the larger forces of the cosmos. The person's intuition is off; his or her ability to assess people and situations is weak. Generally, there are two types of sanpaku. The first is yin sanpaku, white showing below the iris, which is very common, especially among drug addicts. Here, the iris floats upward, revealing the sclera below. The second type is yang sanpaku, white showing above the iris; here the iris sinks downward toward the bottom eyelid. This reveals a dangerous or violent character. Charles Manson has beautiful yang sanpaku eyes.If the white shows below the iris, the condition is yin, indicating that the dangers come from outside. A person with yin sanpaku eyes will place himself or herself in dangerous or threatening situations unwittingly- and may not survive.If the white shows above, the condition is yang, and the danger comes from within. A person with yang sanpaku eyes is extremely violent, filled with rage, and likely poses a threat to himself and others. He may destroy himself, but may also take others with him. [His earlier pictures really show his droopy-eyes much more prominently]

I've had a heck of a time finding ANY pictures of Sylvester as a youth. This forum website seems to be saying that this is him, but I don't read German. community.movie-infos.net/thread.php?threadid=4074Here is another interesting pic of Sly. The horns are formed out of the background, but you'd think the photographer could have blocked it out?

Photographers seem to like this little prop I'm currently watching Absolutely Fabulous - and there is a scene where Patsy has a flashback about going to Africa for a sex-change operation, and then it shows her dressed as a male Beatle with the Sgt. Pepper suit on, badly strumming on a guitar.. ;D (They had Marianne Faithful, Twiggy, Lulu, etc. on the show at different times as well!) Since in current time she is still a woman, the explanation is that "it dried up and fell off."

That's an interesting "plot"! What's with the hoof mark on Bill's face? Did the devil get mad or something?

Sly's mother Jackie: Stallone was born Jacqueline Labofish in Washington, D.C., the daughter of a Parisian socialite and a prominent attorney.[1] Her paternal grandmother, Rosa Rabinovich, was an immigrant from Odessa,[2][3] and her paternal grandfather, whose surname was originally "Labofisz", was a Ukrainian Jew.[4] During her youth, Stallone was a trapeze artist in a circus and a chorus girl in a nightclub. She was also a hairdresser. Stallone lived a relatively quiet life for most of her years. She also invented the term "rumpology", which, according to her, is an art similar to that of palm reading except that the procedure is done by examining pictures of people's rear ends. Once in the early 1990s she appeared on the Howard Stern show and engaged in a heated on-air argument with Sylvester's dad, Frank Stallone Sr. She accused him of being horrible in bed and that he wanted to have Sylvester aborted. She said that she faked the abortion and that Frank didn't know about it until she gave birth. [Great parents!]en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_StalloneHow Italian was he?

Paternally. maternally? Not so much with the Italian, eh? Growing up I always wanted to be part this or that, something special, something other than WASP. I hoped for Native American ancestry, Russian, Jewish, Pole, Italian, Portuguese, Czech, Welsh, Mongolian, even Canadian. But now I've gone thru and checked and tracked down and at every turn I find English, English, English, and more English. Well and more than a little Irish, and maybe one Scotsman but even the one Pennsylvania Dutch ancestor has turned out to be ENGLISH as well. Damn it. I live in the South. This makes me a 100% cracker. Yes, I said it, cracker. I'm a cracker. So, lucky Stallone. He ain't no cracker.
