If you said you looked like one celebrity from the Golden Era...

My skin looks oddly freckly in the picture? Was I born in 1904? You tell me...

Not "golden era" but a funny story regardless.

I had just punched the timeclock at work and was heading up to my department.
An older fella stops me on the stairs and says, "Hey, have you ever heard of Conway Twitty" (those who know me are already chuckling, those who don't, I'm a HUGE Conway Twitty fan)
I reply "Yes, he's my favorite singer"
He told me "I've been wanting to tell you since you started working here (couple years ago) that you are the spitting image of Conway"
I thanked him and went on my way. I get told I look like Mr. Harold Lloyd Jenkins on a regular basis.

Not the greatest pic, but all I got on hand.

I find that I'm the spitting image of Gary Cooper :p

Here's a better picture of my face, though it's my "Going to buy soap at the hardware store" look.

I used to look a bit like Orson Welles, but I'd say these days I'm more a balding Humphrey Bogart.

Though that may just be me being kind on myself.

Well, if you can even mention Bogie in a description of yourself, you've got something going there (hair or no)!

Sorry, double post!
