Physiognomy of fine gentlemen

Following what some Irish would call picturegate, this afternoon a thought crossed my mind: This could become Usmanov-esque dimensions*.

Could have something to do with physiognomy.

Judge yourself.

Alisher Usmanov


Brian Cowen

Amazing, hm?


* And here's Omnium about the Usmanov saga (in chronological order):


Audiatur et altera pars

The Impossible Fact

Not about Mr. Usmanov

Above Mr. Usmanov's dignity

A diamond of altruism


Omnium about Picturegate:


The Taoiseach's New Clothes

The Taoiseach's New Clothes II

Brian, Borges & Bioy

  1. 'Turkish Muse' has a post entitled 'A man without a belly is like a house without a balcony.' Apparently it is a Turkish saying, although I have never heard of it. No doubt penned by a man with a belly.

    Perhaps we can pen another saying: 'A BIFFO so picturesqe could infact break the balcony!'

  4. Ha ha, Ardent, and I, although knowing it would take me one step back on my quest to become the politest blogger in the sphere, I could not resist to see it without asterisk.
    And no I'll carry my not-balcony-like-belly into the bed. :)
    The peace of the night.

  6. Ugh! Not exactly appealing, in and out. Similar nature. The twin faces of corrupted power. I'm a little nauseated...

  8. Bertus,
    quite.
    Mr. Usmanov's 'playing' in an other league, though.

    Claudia,

    Hans,
    sorry for getting you up so early. :)))
