I've got a two-fer! First, the (relatively) easy one:
|
Ditto on Elvis.
|
Not Elvis. But the lips are key.
|
And the hair. Or the relative lack thereof...
This was a good one. ETA: If this was the easy one, I can't wait for the next... |
Honestly, the next one's so hard I'm afraid it might be kind of a downer--like, "Oh, well we never could have guessed that, so what's the point?" This one, at least, you hear the answer and say, "Oh YEAH, I can see it..."
|
I was considering this one, and a certain name kept popping into my head, but I wasn't convinced so didn't announce it. I finally had given up and did something I never do. I cheated. And damn if it wasn't the name that was popping into my head.
I still don't entirely see it. I must have seen a "when they were young" page once in the past and it registered in my memory. I bet I saw that photo before. |
Burt Reynolds?
|
Not Burt Reynolds. It's...
David Hasselhoff! |

And now the stupidly hard one. Note how the hair is shellacked into straightness, and combed down in front to hide the already-balding spot...
|
This one, I've seen before, so I feel like it's cheating to answer. It's a good one though.

So I MUST have seen it before... because the idea of "seeing it before" triggered the name of the person. Right now I'm absolutely certain that I've seen it before. (But I still had to cheat to verify it 100%!) The deep recesses of the mind... may those clouds stay where they are, and not advance into everyday life |
Isn't it amazing that our brains remember such trivial details that we saw briefly years ago?
I guess faces are something that would be evolutionarily advantageous to remember though, so we must be hard wired to encode that information somewhere. I bet we can recognize thousands of faces. Maybe tens of thousands. Even if we have trouble placing them. |
I cheated and I have never heard of him or the show he was on.
|
Yes you have.
|
If you say so.

That's understandable. The studies I've heard about say that despite the hundreds; or, even thousands of contacts you may have IRL and over social media, humans can process a maximum of only about 150 relationships at a time. People are constantly moving in and out of that group.

Dunbar's number and it turns out to be wildly important to how we get along and stuff
It's also the limit of Cellar members we can truly trust The unspoken inner circle of which I have now spoken meaning it is no longer unspoken |

A couple years ago I had a guy walk up to me at a car show and I had no clue. I had given him (charged $1) a '67 Chevy Impala SS convertible a year before that. He was black and I don't interface with that many black guys, and it wasn't like I couldn't remember his name, no connection at all. Don't lend me money. :headshake |
Is the pic Larry David?
|
Yes it is!!
|
I put glasses on him, and a bald-ish head, and there he was.

I never was a big fan of this guy, I found him just 'ok'.
Now I find him unrecognizable. Unless you saw the same article I did a few days ago, you might, too. Who is this? Attachment 70611 |

And who would this 9 year old grow up to be?
|
The first thing that popped into my mind was Elvis. Presley.
Popdigr said Kurt Russell, but, I think Kurt was already an established actor by the age of nine. I think ti-ii-ii-me is not on either of our sides... |
Nope.
|
I've since cheated.
It's a good Who Is This, but, I think it will go unsolved. |
Yeah it's tough, I won't let it drag on too long, after all he died young.
|
James Dean
|
Yes Sir, James Dean it is, :notworthy

Santana?

I didn't notice the fingers before.
I bet that's the Free Solo climber. Alex Anold, or however you spell his last name. He's got the ears too. The photo looks like it's from the '60s and the book also throws me off, but I can see it in his face and fingers. That's Alex. |
