Could someone translate in english ?--Ezzex (talk) 10:43, 9 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Really? Girth is too big a word? Venqax (talk) 16:16, 20 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

"girth" is a polite way to say obesity. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.175.118.250 (talk) 03:41, 22 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Ezzex, could I suggest you use Wikipedia itself or Google to words you don't understand instead of accusing other of not writing in English?MrNeutronSF (talk) 07:46, 6 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

When and why did he start using the name Conrad professionally? Venqax (talk) 17:31, 9 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Conrad was a very good singer

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I hope someone can add a description of his ability to sing. He did a fine job as lead singer in an episode of the Carol Burnett Show, in a song and dance number about early movies. 67.184.109.39 (talk) 03:32, 26 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

Photoshopped image?

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The headshot of the subject seems obviously photoshopped or AI generated. The focus around jawline and face is very sharp, while shoulders seem of an entirely different focal depth. The source seems attributed to an ebay item?

Anyone have a more reliable image? 115.64.45.18 (talk) 12:39, 22 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
