Perhaps you recognize my large chest?

So, pal, what do you do for a living?
What do I DO? I am FABIO!
Sorry, I don’t understand. What is that?
I am an actor and a model!
Oh! Have I seen you in anything?
Probably. I played the Handsome Man in “Scenes from a Mall,” the Blind Date in “Boogies Diner,” and I have done numerous cameos.
Long cameos?
No. The short kind.
Hmmmm. You do look familiar.
I am also a spokesman.
Spokesman, huh? For what?
I can’t believe it’s not butter.
What, this stuff on our plate isn’t butter?
No. I am a spokesman for I can’t believe it’s not butter!
Ah, I don’t watch much TV.
Do you read? I write books and my bare chest is on the covers! Perhaps you have read “Rogue,” “Comanche,” “Viking…”
Yeah, whatever. So what’s the deal with your hair, anyway?

Fabio? Fabu!
Yeah, he does look quite daunting in that first pic.
But then, I get a feeling anyone would look daunting whilst listening to Joe Pantoliano (whosoever he may be)
Fabio and Pantoliano are Italiano? Magnifico!
That’s FABIO in the top photo? Gee, I’m afraid I didn’t recognize him with his chest un-bared…and with all of those wrinkles. I guess it’s a good thing he did keep the pecs under wraps.
I can’t believe it’s not Arnold Schwarzenegger!
I suggest that Fabio does the same thing as I have done. Grow a beard! Fabio can always dye his beard just like he does to his hair!
Me, I happen to like having a grey beard. Dude! Who does your hair implants, anyway? Oh! You DO have a receding hair line! You can just claim that your hair is turning transparent! Not as if I would do that…I wear a hat!
Fabio looks as if he is chiseled out of butter. On a warm day!
I can’t believe it’s
the original fab abs!
Where does the time go?
Shra, think Cypher in The Matrix.
You know, BG, I look at the fonts in this Blog and I can only think of one question: Who shot the Serif?
@Doc: We have shots of Fabio and his chest, and all you can do is look at fonts? Maybe you need an Arial view?
Spin, men’s chests do not interest me, besides my own, that is. I look at it at times….
Joey Pants! I recognize him. That other person…not so much. Those romance novel covers always make me think of this one http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sJq42pXCZlI/TJ lv5MaAxPI/AAAAAAAACgw/SMtMnoV81ok/s1600/ Misery3A.jpg If the link works, the dark haired hero may be recognizable.
BG, have I told you I’m your number 1 fan? Bwahahahahaha!!!
I read the title and expected a woman.
Maybe it was just me…
When I was in Florence a guy calling himself Fabio tried to pick me up – I mentioned it to a friend years later and apparently the same guy tried the same thing with her! He claimed to be related to “THE” Fabio – like we’re that stupid! Us Aussie girls don’t fall for lines like that so easily…
