Almost mistook this guy for Bronzeage, except he at least looks like a real man and not some spineless southern-fried Louisiana pansy.

Man pops the question to lover who stabbed him in the back
A man who almost died when his girlfriend stabbed him in the back, turned up at court with a diamond ring and asked her to marry him.
Gregory Todd, 48, had been planning to go down on one knee and pop the question to Tiffany Baillie, 32, when she appeared in the dock to admit attacking him as he slept in December last year.
But the chef, who spent months in hospital after Baillie plunged a 12 inch kitchen knife into his back, was forced to propose through her lawyer after the judge remanded her in custody to await sentencing.
Mr Todd, who is unable to visit Baillie in prison until after Easter, is now desperately waiting to hear if she has accepted his marriage offer.
As Baillie appeared in the dock at Hull Crown Court for a sentencing hearing, her barrister Paul Genney explained that Mr Todd had a special reason for turning up in his best suit.
Mr Genney said: “Mr Todd is in court and has been to see her in prison. He has brought a ring to court to propose to her. Eventually they want to get married. He says he has brought the engagement ring to ask to her marry him today.”
At that Baillie looked across the court room towards the man she admits stabbing and began to cry.
But she gave no indication of her answer, leaving Mr Todd in suspense.
The judge heard how Baillie stabbed Mr Todd in the back in December last year as he slept at their home in Hessle, Humberside.
The attack came around the anniversary of the death of Baillie’s ten-week old son and also came shortly after she had suffered a miscarriage.
Her lawyer said she had been struggling to deal with the grief at the time and could not explain why she had stabbed Mr Todd.
The blade pierced Mr Todd’s liver, spleen and pancreas and doctors said he would have certainly died had it not been for the swift medical intervention.
But once he had recovered Mr Todd did not hesitate in visiting Baillie in prison in order to offer her his forgiveness.
Speaking outside court after the hearing, Mr Todd said: “I love her I want to marry her. She didn't know I was going to propose today but I was.
