Several years ago when I was working retail at an ice hockey equipment store, a bearded gentleman and his son came in to buy some goalie gear for the youngster. I helped them with everything they needed, the whole time thinking this guy looked really familiar. Shortly before they left, I asked the guy, "Has anyone ever told you that you look like Jeff Daniels?" He replied that everybody said that. Knowing that the actor was a local, I asked, "Are you?" He replied, "Yes, I am," and shook my hand. We had a brief exchange about some of his films, he thanked me for the service, and then left. He seemed like a really down-to-earth person who didn't have any interest in his celebrity status, so I'm just glad I didn't blurt out something stupid like, "Oh my god, that diarrhea scene in Dumb And Dumber was so funny!" I would've felt like an ass.
