Celebs all around me.

31Jan07

There was a bad accident this morning that stretched my usual 45 minute commute to an abysmal 2 hours. To keep my road rage at bay I played a little game I like to call the Celebrity look-a-like challenge.

Basically what I do is try to pick out my fellow commuters who look like celebrities. Since my average speed was slowed to about 3 miles an hour it was easy to spy some great celebrity look-a-likes in the cars around me. Here are some of my favorites that I spotted this morning.

Al Roker was driving a mini-van behind me the majority of my commute. He was a dead-ringer for the once portly weatherman, even down to the style of suit he was wearing.

Walter Matthau crept by me in a Prius. Who knew Walt was socially conscious.

Courtney Love was also stuck in the traffic jam. She passed the time smoking cigarettes and playing with her still wet hair.

I also spotted people who resembled this guy, this gal, and this cartoon character. I was surprised how many look-a-likes there were. These people should drop everything and move out to Vegas to cash in ASAP.

P.S. To anyone travelling on 270 North this morning. If you caught some weirdo in a beat-up blue Saturn staring at you it was probably just me and not some serial killer.
