Originally Posted By MomofPrincess LOL! Nope, never! But I always laugh when complete strangers approach me, SURE that they're the first person who's ever recognized the resemblance.

I swear it happens every time! Cracks me up! No one has asked for an autograph, though. However, there is a grocery store bakery guy and a bank teller who both "jokingly" call me Vicki every time I come in. LOL

Originally Posted By TALL Disney Guy LOL that's awesome, MoP!

She said the first time it happened her sister told her about it and she was like, "They kept asking me for an autograph so I signed your name, I hope you're not mad!" LOL! And I bet you just *love* the "before your time" part! ;-P

Yeah, well for some reason I get enough people thinking that I'm like OLDER than I am (a coworker, when seeing me at my 10yo son's baseball game, asked if it was my GRANDSON who was playing! -- just one example), that those "before your time" comments keep me from having to just put an end to it all and kill myself. LOL

Do *III* *KNOOOOWW??* lol ;-P I can even tell you what hair coloring she uses (only cause she revealed it in her book, lol). I think she looks like she could be related to Carol...she probably looked a little more like her back when she was younger when *Carol* was younger. But yeah, you could play her baby sister hands down---no audition! LOL

Originally Posted By MomofPrincess jzaret: Yes, I see that, too! TDG, you are cracking me up!!! Obviously you are her #1 fan, aren't you?!! Truth be told, I wrote to her fan club president about a year ago, just to mention my resemblance to her and the fact that I'd be glad to stand in as an extra if she ever needed a "relative" to appear on a show. LOL (Pretty nervy, huh?) He wrote back, saying she wanted to see pictures. I sent them but never heard back! I was pretty disappointed.

That's cool that you wrote the fan club and sent pics! I wouldn't take too much stock in not hearin' somethin' back...sometimes it's hard enough to get replies back, plus, she's been touring soooooo much lately. Maybe she hadn't even gotten to see 'em yet, or they could've gotten lost, who knows (I think 2 eBay auctions of mine recently got lost or somethin', grrrrr [they were from sellers with TERRIFIC feedback, too). And about Lisa, yes, Phoebe was my *favorite* character on "Friends"!
Originally Posted By MomofPrincess That's true; it's not like she spends her life waiting on e-mails (the way I do, ROFL)! That's so maddening about eBay, isn't it?! Grrr! Yep, LOVED Phoebe...and Ursula, too, of course! This has been loads of fun. Thanks for your enthusiasm!
