- It started happening when Misery came out. People were coming up to me asking if we knew each other. I asked where they worked, where the went to school, etc.....etc.....Then I'd ask if they had seen the movie Misery, and they'd say "THAT'S IT!!!! YOU LOOK JUST LIKE HER!!!!" I have a cousin that gets that all the time too.

Flies taste, smell, and feel with the hairs that cover their bodies. The hairs on the fly's mouth parts and feet are used for tasting. Flies taste what they walk on. If they walk onto something tasty, they put down their mouth and taste it again. A fly cleans itself constantly.

When I was a little kid people said Tom Cruise but better looking. I never saw it then and certainly don't see it now. They must have been on drugs.

When I was younger and leaner, with a beard sans moustache and a head of hair, I was told I looked like the zany Brit broadcaster Kenny Everett. Now I look like an amalgam of Donald Pleasence, Aleister Crowley and Mr Potato Head.

Because they are cleaning their legs, when they do that they get their legs and hairs clean if they didn't do that then they wouldn't be able to taste because the hairs taste before they eat.

I have been told many times, especially when younger, Valerie Bertinelli. That's a compliment, but I don't see it.
