Back when the picture threads were the rage, I was told I look like...

Paul McCartney  :)
Tom Cruise  ::)
Neil Finn  ;)
Edward Woodward  ???

and

Some really unattractive Baseball Manager  >:(

My Mum said when I was younger I looked like Al Pacino  ;D

I have been told by someone at work I look like Kevin Spacey but I think it was a reference to my thinning hair  :'( :'( :'(

But they were all wrong !  You see, all those people look like FussBudget  :P :P :P

Also, apparently SS and company saw me at a county fair down south somewhere some months ago - I had to deny it - I was home in bed !  (That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it !)  ;D

Never been told I look like a famous person except once, when my X father-in-law told me that I looked "himself" (I had a major beard at the time, althogh my hair had not turned white - It takes a worried man to sing a worried song.  Any guesses?  My partner says the eyes are very close - maybe the intensity - or passion?

In 1978 people were always coming up to me -it was too much- and saying I looked like Joyce De Witt. In the early - mid 90s, so many people would say to me that I looked just like Julia Luis Dreyfuss. It was really funny. Today, I don't look like anyone. My guy looks like Sam Elliot (the younger look of Sam Elliot), though. Gee, maybe I'll look like someone again soon, though.

No, my X father in law thought he might be, but actually, I get published regularly in the oldest and most respected journal of Marxist scholarship (Science & Society) in the U.S. AND HE NEVER DID.  Its just that when I lived in WAAAAY upstate N.Y. I grew a beard to protect my face from -40f degree temps, and never trimed it, neither did the "old Moor", so no, my X was younger than me, and I'm not that old.  There was a resembalance though.

And yes, I am a Marxist (Graucho, Harpo, Chico,Zeppo...and Karl  ;)).  And before you jump to conclusions, try reading what he actually wrote - its tough going, but anyone who tries and has questions, is welcome to PM me with them and I will try to answer - or refer to better sources.  Political economy is heavy stuff - I don't necessarily get it all, but it is challenging stuff, and worth the effort if you want to get what's going on.  Just a challange and an offer - free classes from a college prof. who could beat that  ;)  All welcome - ask if you would like a "reading list" form the professor (no grades will be given).  And I respect EVERYONE'S "academic freedom"  Many of my students totally disagree with me on many issues, express those opinions well, with evidence, and get "A"s in my courses.

My dad has a picture of my great (great?) aunt who was full-blooded Sioux.  Except for my eye color (can't tell what color hers are, but I'm assuming they're brown, mine are green) and the fact that my hair is shorter and curlier, you would think it was a picture of me.  

Also, along the same lines, my dad and his dad could be twins.  There is a pic of my grandpa/grandma & dad (at age 10) that my parents keep on their dresser.  I always used to wonder who the woman and little boy were in the picture of daddy.  It's almost scary how much they look alike.
