by The other day I was in the Rutgers bookstore and a cashier told me I looked like Australian Cricketer Mark Waugh. After I asked for, and received, the definition of Cricketer, I told that student I was going to look up Mark on the web and I said, “if he is ugly there is going to be trouble!”
As I was leaving, the student told me Mark has a twin brother Steve and that I may be the missing triplet.
It’s interesting how people have never been shy about telling me who I look like.
In high school I was told I looked like movie star Tom Cruise.
In college I was told I looked like actor Tom Hanks.
In graduate school I was told I looked like former Yankees pitcher Matt Nokes.
As an instructor at both Saint Peter’s College and Rutgers-Newark my students told me I looked like outstanding actor Edward Norton.
Perhaps one day I will simply be recognized as me.
one day someone’s gonna say to Mark Waugh “oy mate, you look like David Boles innit?”
Hey vinnie, you made me laugh! 🙂 Love it! Thanks for the post!
