Some of these are good, particularly if you're a fan of "The Wire." I laughed out loud at Steve Nash compared to the kid from "Breaking Away."

Some won't match for you at all. The reason is that people recognize faces based on 20 different measurements, but each individual grows up using only about a dozen. The 12-of-20 you might use would be different than mine. Anyway, if you ever had someone say to you, "Doesn't he look like ....." and you thought, "Not even close!" that's why.

Good stuff.

I always thought Justin Reed looked like comedian John Henton.

My wife think Jaric looks like Keanu Reeves, which I can sometimes see.
