    Had to delete and repost for technical difficulties with the video embed. Sorry, early commenters. Carry on!

    1. heller   15 years ago

      What are you hiding???

      1. Achtung Coma Baby   15 years ago

        As I was saying, I'm hoping that evolution will phase-out the vagina....

    2. Joe M   15 years ago

      I'd like to see the long form of this post.

    3. A Serious Man   15 years ago

      Well that was a waste of a Soviet Russia joke.

      1. Rich   15 years ago

        In Soviet America joke wastes *you*!

  2. dbcooper   15 years ago

    Have an nice Pink Floyd re-edit:

    Now I needs a hopped up brew. 🙂

  3. Critic   15 years ago

    What is with Doherty's hair?

    1. Achtung Coma Baby   15 years ago

      Don't ask. It gets awkward.

    2. BoscoH   15 years ago

      If you noticed that one tab of his color is out and one is in, you weren't paying enough attention to Alyona.

      1. BoscoH   15 years ago

        *collar* grrrr.

        1. Paul   15 years ago

          When I read your comment, I thought, "So which color is in? The blonde highlights, or the darker back section?"

  4. Tom Walls   15 years ago

    In Soviet Russia, Alyona call YOU newsmuffin!

  5. Bedlum   15 years ago

    You should look at the camera. You look unfocused.

    1. Paul   15 years ago

      You can say that again.

  6. Bedlum   15 years ago

    You should look at the camera. You look unfocused.

  7. Otto   15 years ago

    Brian, a suggestion - with that shirt and coat, try a navy tie.

    My suggestions for Alyona would probably be dismissed as "unprofessional."

    1. Jason   15 years ago

      How's this... "less fabric, a more airy outfit".

      1. Preston   15 years ago

        I'd recommend a haircut, as well. Not a bad looking guy, Brian, but you look just a bit sloppy here.

  8. Brian Doherty   15 years ago

    Weird thing about the RT setup is, if you are staring straight at the camera you are staring straight at a video feed of yourself. You all are correct, I should not have let that cause my eyes to wander, but it did. My hair is what it is right now, it isn't designed for TV. Yes on the collar.

    1. Paul   15 years ago

      Don't let 'em fuck with you. I'd imagine if you looked at the hair (or lack thereof) of most H&R commenters, they'd have nothing to make cracks about.

  9. Greg Cosmos   15 years ago

    I would enjoy being on Alyona, also.

  10. GILMORE   15 years ago

    Holy shit the Reason mag fashion-crisis has now reached meth-epidemic proportions...

    I call this one, "acid-hangover"-chic

  11. Almanian   15 years ago

    What GYP! Thanks alot, Brian! If that's your REAL name.

    Also - Alyona, SHOW US YOUR TITS!!!
