He cleans up pretty nice

I posted back in February about Ron White looking pretty rough, like maybe all that whiskey had finally taken it's toll. He looked pretty good in the first Blue Collar Comedy Tour, but in the second it was awful. Same jokes recycled, he was greasy, bloated, and looking like death. Well, someone must have clued him in, because he was on the Comedy Central Jeff Foxworthy Roast tonight, and looked sober, thinner, and much better. Granted, he still *really* needs a haircut, but at least his hair wasn't slicked with oil, and he wasn't looking like a drunken whale. His trademark glass of scotch was a fake, and his cigar was not burning, which probably means his new wife made him head on over to the Betty Ford clinic or else. Whatever it was, I'm glad to see it, he's a hilarious comedian and I'd hate to see him drink himself to death. Well done, Ron. (For the record, I'd really like to see him cut his hair like the pic on his website... much more attractive than the long hair thing!)
