It's kind of scary -- but I think you and I might look a like.  Or as say to my
lovely wife, I have a face that only a mother can love.

True stories:
====================================================

After I got married at 22, my mom tells me - "I am so glad you got married
...before you went completely bald"

====================================================

A few years later, the gang ( my family) were at a wedding for one of my younger
cousins.  One of my even younger cousins , Terry , was at the wedding.  Terry
was 17 years old, 6'2", green eyes, blond and football player/wrestler for his
school.  A very handsome lad.   Anyway, my mom could not stop talking about how
"good" Terry looked.  It got to the point where Terry was even getting
embarrassed by all the compliments my mom was throwing his way.

Sensing his discomfort, I interceded oh his behalf (to try to get her to shut
up), "Mom" , I interupted , "you never said all this about me".

In true NY style, and without missing a beat, she looks at Terry , she looks at
me and ,as she nods over to Terry, softly says "When you look like that, I
will."
