Resemblance?

At last, it's the big Christmas weekend and everybody is making last minute preparations and/or buying last minute gifts and this is no time for a guessing game......
BUT......
....I ran across this picture and could not resist. Do you think the following picture resembles anyone we know? In my opinion it looks a lot like our very own Greybeard in his younger days......BUT......it is not. It is a very famous person, though.
Any guesses?

Greybeard said...

OMG!
I recognize him, and don't much care for the way he looks later in life!

one of the Beach Boy kids?

The Joker said...

LOL, GB.

Not one of the Beach Boys, PT.

But do you all agree he resembles a younger GB? Or am I just imagining this?

The guy in the picture is a VERY well known actor (not just an actor, but a movie star) and has made many, many movies.

Kurt Russell?

The Joker said...

Not Kurt Russell.

The guy in the picture is 64 and he's Italian....
hint: think "mafia"

Purple Tabby said...

That just can't be Pacino. Can it?

Greybeard said...

I haven't checked an age to see if he's 64, but when I first saw the pic I thought-
Ray Liotta.

The Joker said...

Not Al Pacino.
Ray Liotta is only 52, so, not him

The answer is Robert de Niro.

MERRY CHRISTMAS.

"You talkin' to ME??!!"

It's Christmas Eve and I'm workin' a day shift.
With the exception of flying one preemie baby from little hospital to big one, it's been a quiet day. I'll be on duty tomorrow too, and we'll (the three of us, +Desi and Lucy) will be celebrating together when I get home from work in the evening.

I'll be looking down the "Contributors" list thinking warm thoughts of all of you, hoping to see you by May at the latest.
I hope you are warm, well fed, and surrounded by others that care for you. Even if you're not, there are (((Group Hugs))) for all!

Happy Jesus' Birthday, VK's.
Be safe and well.

We had our Christmas last night. The kids and grandkids in AZ. could not be here but we still had a housefull. I love watching all the kids open their presents and waiting their turn to open the next. We started our Christmas early at 2:00 PM with a late lunch, then went downstairs by the old pot belly stove and 3 of my grandkids read Christmas poems with one of them dedicated to my mom and dad, my son Ronnie led us in some Christmas Carols as we set around the stove and remembered our loved ones who had passed away. We especially remembered my mom and dad. December 24, 1941 they were married and would have celebrated their 66 wedding anniversary. As a child we always celebrated Christmas on Christmas Eve along with thier anniversary, its been along time since we were able to celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve in our home, so this was a special night for me.
I hope everyone has a Very Merry Christmas, I know I did.

Hope everyone had a great Christmas. Sharon woke up early Christmas morning with a lung killing her. So I got to take her to the emergency room. We got to spend the day in the hospital. Ended up with puemonia in both lungs. Put her on IV'S with pain killer and antibotics. Got her home that evening. Shes doing better just needs to rest and stay on the drugs. Everyone have a great New Year and see you all soon. Didn't take any trips in December so I'm ready for January. Sharon and I are going to be with Harry and Carol January 17 thru the 20th. Will be great to spend time with them. Then I have to go see my customer in the Bahamas the following week. Tough duty but someone has to do it. See you all soon.

Wow TC!
Sounds like Christmas 2007 will be one you'll remember for a while, but for the wrong reasons. I'm sorry Sharon is sick, but glad you were able to sort the problem out and get on the road to recovery. Tell her we are all thinking of her and hope she gets better soon...
She has to be better by Mid-January so the two of you can head South, then report your visit with H&C back here!

Please, keep the updates comin', TC.

Love,
