Brendan, aged 28, this day in 2006, tries to grow a beard and look sophisticated while at the same time holding his reputation for occasional lasciviousness and disorderly conduct; balancing the perceived successes of life with the persistent anxiety of purpose and calling, he fools many a friend and foe. Nevertheless, at the close of day, he supposes a happy stance on it all.


...and these, just for fun.
