Who is trying to fool. Sy Sperling?

Who would have ever thought, Ehrlich has a head full of hair, and O'Malley's hair line is receding faster than a speeding train and his ball spot if coming through, what a difference four years make..

Posted by: Lee | September 16, 2010 3:47 PM

Dude you're just play mean and ugly. That do will change nothing. Good luck!!

Posted by: Jared | September 16, 2010 3:56 PM

Nice combover.

Look in the mirror. The barber's hands are empty and nowhere near Ehrlich fake hair. WHAT A GAFFE!

Who is the mystery man (appears to be wearing a suit) whose partial reflection shows up in the mirror?

Posted by: Ray | September 16, 2010 4:01 PM

Anonymous: There were scissors.

Looks a like a rug on top of his head

Still looks like Moe from the Three Stooges.

Why don't you get a pair of white shoes, move down to Miami Beach and get the whole thing over with?

I know the barber, Bob Magee. He has been Governor Ehrlich's barber for years. Mr. Magee and some others along with myself in the barber/beauty profession worked on some problems in the statutes of cosmetology/barbering laws several years ago. Although the problem still exists (no fault to Governor Ehrlich) I can assure you that Mr Magee is his barber and that is his real hair.

There is no hair on the smock!

My my, look at all the detectives!

Posted by: Anonymous | September 16, 2010 4:29 PM

moral of JoAnn's story -don't go to Bob Magee if you want your hair to look like that.

I wonder how many of those who have posted remarks remember a SUN that was a quality paper? What a lame excuse for the ONLY daily in Baltimore- SAD-SAD-SAD. There are more ads than text, mostly out of town bylines,the great Vozzella whose reporting goal in life is totally devoted to digging up" dirt" on Ehrlich either in or out of office,a shrinking paper, literally, and a genuine focus on the mundane.Baltimore has lots of problems that honest, caring reporters should address. They are too busy being petty and cheap w/out caring for the victims of crime(ex. rape). It's easy to be "pot shot" writers & hard to get the real stories.Maybe the great fall off in subscriptions tells as story. Maybe Zell will have to sell and all you "reporters" will go back where you came from and some poeple who REALLY care about the city will get jobs. One can only DREAM.

So this is what the Baltimore Sun calls news???

Posted by: Patti | September 16, 2010 5:01 PM

Patti
What did you expect to read when you clicked to get here? If The Sun is beneath you go exercise that big brain of yours and read another online newspaper.

Posted by: matt | September 16, 2010 5:15 PM

Good idea to do this. There have been a lot of rumors about his hair. This helps the campaign.

Posted by: John | September 16, 2010 5:25 PM

Calm down people, it's just a blog post!!

Posted by: Dwigt | September 16, 2010 5:32 PM

What Hair? That's a toupe, makes him look like a Vulcan, Nice try Gov. Spock.
Any stunt for a vote.

Posted by: Greg | September 16, 2010 5:35 PM

....looks like Bonney Prince Charles on Prozac..

Posted by: garrett snow | September 16, 2010 5:42 PM

At least Bob doesn't have Spock ears like O'Malley

Posted by: Howard Citizen | September 16, 2010 6:24 PM

This fake haircut stunt is sure to backfire on Bobby. Obviously he only went in for a fitting and a neck hair trim.

What makes this news worthy?

Posted by: JT | September 17, 2010 6:27 AM

Doesn't this guy sterilize his brushes, scissors and combs? They are all lying around.

Posted by: Anonymous | September 17, 2010 8:52 AM

He pays to look like that? I always assumed Mrs E cut it at home with a bowl.

Posted by: Esau | September 17, 2010 9:15 AM

The name is Asslick......Bob Asslick!!!

Posted by: Angry Black Man | September 17, 2010 12:54 PM

Hopefully, the haircut is a freebie. But where is Larry (Andy Barth) and Curly (Greg Massoni)?

Posted by: Allard Cranston | September 18, 2010 12:58 PM

I heard Shemp (Harry Fawell) was there.

Posted by: Max Power | September 18, 2010 4:01 PM

O'malley has him beat on the hair issue.
