Look at this classy mother effer. Who is he, you ask? If you didn't pay attention to the title of this thread, I'll tell you again; Tom Waits. Now, those of you - those few of you who didn't swoon at that first picture might be asking "Why should I care?" Well, sir and/or madam, Mr. Waits is the epitome of cool. He's got the classy suit, he's got the image, he's got the flair, the moxie. But most of all, he's got the voice:

He makes ladies swoon and men wish they were ladies.

What, you're saying you can't understand what he's saying? That's part of the mystery. It adds to his charm. His crazy crooning seduces women who haven't even heard him yet. He's so cool he can walk on the sun, but doesn't, because there's no breathable air or proper atmosphere there.

And accomplished, let me tell you what; actor, singer, poet, mechanic, comedian and all around hep-cat. His best album "Glitter And Doom (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBwl7sZAnGU)" has a second disc filled with his own comedy material. He hung out with Francis Ford Coppola, Frank Zappa, The Ramones, and David freakin' Bowie!

Who could be cooler than this crooner?
