SEPARATED AT BIRTH: HOWIE CARR AND ORSON WELLES

O

Omnibus

Guest
Just saw Howie Carr on Fox 25 News.
He is so fat he looks like Orson Welles in fat guy shorts no less
Hey, Howie try a salad once in a while.
Actually, Howie Carr looks so bloated it looks like he is on steriods.

Now that Ted Kennedy isn't around anymore for him to kick around anymore it is time for Howie to eat his own words...which he has obviously been doing. You, Howard Lawrence Carr are the new "FAT BOY" !
 
Supposedly has had fat reduction, lasik eye
surgery and a bunch of other body nips and tucks and
operations for free in exchange for promo consideration.
What does he look like now, Chris Matthews? Orson Welles
selling no wine before its time? Col David Hunt? All these improvements
to look good on book tours and tv (he's doing a lot
of tv and radio now post Bulger verdict). But hey
many of us have a perfect face for radio.
 
Howie does talk about being on the treadmill at the gym
but he also eats fried clams with col Dave Hunt at
Ken's Place in Maine

Then there's free food from Kowloon's etc..
 
Ugh! This is unfortunately no photo shop. It is the real Howie Carr... in the flesh so to speak....!
Lot's of flesh
 
Howie's adulation for Maria Stephanos is pretty laughable. The only reason she gets above-average attention is because she's good eye candy, and not because of her reporting skills. There are some things I like about Howie--his long-running exposure of the hacks. This is among the things I don't like about him--the bookselling over thugs and the people he pals around with in the media.
 
That's all over FB, etc. Howie had said on air he was going to dress that way. Since when do we have casual Mondays? Wonder if the sandals were from Belmont Medical Supply--there's a recorded spot he and Sandy do for them with words like "pronation" and "suppination" as part of it. There were references recently to Bulger attorney Jay Carney who said he had his toenails painted purple or
something. Howie used to have a black toenail--due to a fungus, but medication made it go away.
Clearly this pic shows all the free work (in exchange for his doing ads) he's had done for his
weight, vision, hair etc is paying off ::)
 
Where's his agent? Surely there must be more movie work for a guy who looks like Orson Wells and sounds like Jean Shepard.
 
dumber than a box of hair said:

Nice outfit, Howie? My God what a fat, pompous, hypocritcal loser.

Yeah, some loser all right...pulling down six figures of cash US money every year. Do you do that well?

A lot better to be honest. Retired and still haven't reached 60. Howie is the biggest hypocrite on radio. The only reason he is on is to hump his books and sponsors.
 
>>Jean Shepard

Some have compared him to Jean Shepherd, yes; and note the spelling. "Jean Shepard" is a honky tonk country singer :) Meanwhile, "Shep" helped to inspired "A Boy Named Sue" written by his
friend Shel Silverstein (he was named after Jean Valjean and took some ribbing from having "a girl's name"...)
