Mark Twain 1835-1910

                                                                     NOT HOT
                                                                              HOT
         While the handlebar mustache and white hair are endearing, most pictures of Mark Twain look like he'd make a terrific grandfather.  Think again! Apparently, prior to his prolific literary career, Mark Twain was quite the attractive man.

Leo Tolstoy 1828-1910

                                                              NOT HOT
HOT 

                                                                                  
Grizzled 19th Century Russian authors usually aren't attractive (just google young Dostoevsky for proof) but young Leo Tolstoy somehow breaks this mold.  This is especially true if you are into angsty, brooding men. If so,  then young Leo Tolstoy is for you. очень жарко!

Special Edition- Historical Figures That Used to Be Heinously Ugly

                                                          NOT HEINOUSLY UGLY
HEINOUSLY UGLY
(WHAT NIGHTMARES ARE MADE OF)

I couldn't help but include a special addition in which I celebrate a historical figure that grew into his or her looks. Tony Blair is in fact the inspiration for this particular theme. I always assumed Tony Blair was somewhat attractive in his younger days, then again, the 1980s were a bad time for mostly everyone. Still, this is inexcusable. There is absolutely nothing good about this picture.

Dick Cheney-1941-

                                      NOT HOT (Even Less Hot than Huckabee)

                                                     (Sort Of) HOT

While I wouldn't directly admit that young Dick Cheney was actually "hot" per se, the fact that he looked like a normal, fairly attractive, fairly non-threatening young man is enough to warrant inclusion in this blog.  It's not enough to warrant a euphemism, however.

John Roberts 1955-

(For a Supreme Court Justice maybe, but for the general population) NOT HOT

HOT

Like Huckabee, he's not necessarily a "historical figure" yet, but after finding this picture I couldn't resist including him in this blogpost. With looks like that, I hope he doesn't abstain from voting in my favor.....

Thomas Edison 1837-1931

                                                                      NOT HOT

HOT


His creation of the light bulb wasn't the only thing that was electric....apparently his looks were too!

Boris Yeltsin 1931-2007

NOT HOT


HOT

Yeltsin gets two just so we can all admire him from multiple angles. He can be President of My Supreme Soviet anytime.....

Mike Huckabee

Really NOT HOT

HOT
                                                                            
While he is socially and fiscally conservative, apparently he was in no way conservative in regards to sex appeal.
