You need to learn a Liverpool accent and then deny it to people.

I was 18 years old and in an airport. I was killing time playing an arcade game. I had a shaved head at the time. Some guy walks bye me and looks stunned. He's stuttering and acting flustered. He asked if I was a WWF wrestler.

And, when I grow my hair, he does. When I went gray, he went gray. When I cut my hair, went with beard, he cut his hair, and did a beard.

For a while I was getting Chuck Norris a lot. It was really kind of creepy and I didn't see it at all. Finally I was at a rural park saying good by to an Aunt an Uncle after a family visit. She had been fighting cancer for years and every visit could be the last. He was a Vietnam vet and he was a Marine tank driver in Con Thien. He wasn't one to laugh much.

Anyway, we are walking past this park pavilion where a bunch of rowdy teenagers are carrying on. Catching bits and pieces of their conversation I hear "Chuck Norris" and "Walker Texas Ranger" and realize what they are talking about. I'm just trying to spend time with some special family members, so when we get to my rental car, this one kid, the skeptical one of the bunch walks up to us, cuts between my Uncle and I and hands me a piece of paper and pen and doesn't quite look me in the eye as he does it. My Aunt and Uncle are a little miffed, but in a rare witty moment, I take the paper and pen like this happens to me all the time. I scribble something out on the paper on the roof of my rental car and hand it back to the kid. He reads it, his eyes get real big and he runs back to his buddies.

My Uncle asks "What the hell was that about?" I told him they thought I was Chuck Norris and they wanted an autograph. My Uncle asked what I wrote. "Best wishes Chuck Norris" . I don't know if I remember a time hearing my Uncle and Aunt laugh so hard. And it turned out that it was my last time seeing my Aunt, so a couple of rowdy teenagers made for a great last memory.

Worked with a guy that could double for Conway Twitty. Him and his wife went to Twitty City one year on vacation.

We asked him what he did and he said he signed autographs all week.

Just a few days after the Oklahoma City bombing, the Colorado Highway Patrol mistook me for Timothy Leveigh.

Thought I was gonna get ventilated that day. My truck fit the description of what he was supposedly driving almost perfectly, and he and I looked enough alike at a distance.

LOL...oops! I musta been high when I typed that.

Back in the day and a Conway Twitty lookalike? If he wasn't single he'd probably have been knee deep in strange.

Some other guy who lived in town and went to a different high school. I can't recall his name, but we had some mutual friends. Every so often people would approach me and start talking to me as if I was him. Later on I met the guy, and he had been getting the same thing from the other side.

We didn't see the resemblance though.

When I was young I was told I looked like Robert Redford. Women would tell me I was good looking a lot. Now I'm old and have been told I look like Kevin Bacon. At least I've got some money. Not as much as Kevin Bacon though.

It was kind of funny afterwards.
