Semi-aghast compliments abound

I suppose by now I should be accustomed to the semi-aghast compliment of, "You look GREAT!" issuing from the mouths of the unsuspecting, but...alas, I'm not. I mean, thanks and all, but...um...you are my professor...of semantics...with a comb-over. What would your wife say? ;) Luckily, all plausible nasty-old-man fears were put to rest by the shock and reluctance overwhelmingly plastered on your face and the accompanying stammer, buddy. I, too, have wished for life's "Control Z"...I understand. Thanks for the compliment. I'll try not to sneak up on you anymore... :)

(just to clarify...this was not meant in ANY way to be interpreted as cocky)
