But an even better one - about 10 years ago a then-coworker and I shared an elevator ride with David Cross and, when I did a double take after recognizing him, he responded with facial expression that made it abundantly clear he had no interest in a conversation so I left him alone.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

Woody Harrelson sat directly behind me at a restaurant in Santa Barbara called the SpiritLand Bistro and my girlfriend (now wife) noticed that we had the same male-pattern baldness.
