I think I've said it before, but, what the hell...
I find it interesting as hell to see colorized versions of these vintage photos we all grew up viewing countless times.

HOWEVER...

I think I will ALWAYS PREFER the original b&w versions for reasons I cannot explain.

If you have to take the drugs, I suppose it's safe to say that one could do far worse than to choose a physique such as Pearl's to emulate. I say this because I recall where Bill admitted to having used steroids, albeit "sparingly".

I will be going to Oregon in a couple of months to visit my older brother who lives not far from Bill. There is a small restaurant that Pearl likes to frequent so perhaps I can finally meet him. Decades ago I used to train at Stern's and the many photographs of Pearl, Reeves and more were very inspirational.
