You totally misspelled 'independently' in the Clinton caption.


Gravatar I'm glad to see you were reading closely. :)


Gravatar Some of these would make great PPOTD.

(JFK & Paul VI)
Pope Paul: No my son, watching Marilyn in that dress singing "Happy Birthday" was not a sin, trying to unwrap her later WAS!

(Paul VI & LBJ)
Pope Paul (thinking): If he tells me 1 more story about his dogs or tries to show me his scar, I'll call down a plague to smit him.

(Nixon & Paul VI)
Pope Paul: Then there is the 1 about the priest, the rabbi & the atheist who walk into a bar. . .


Gravatar Me too. It's still misspelled. :-)


Gravatar The funny thing is that some of these pairings have that "separated at birth" quality.

Eisenhower and Bl. John XXIII -- two bald guys with egg-shaped heads.

Paul VI and Lyndon Johnson -- something about the noses is similar.

JPII and Reagan -- two guys with acting training, both unconsciously doing that "I'll mirror the guy to show friendliness" thing.

JPII and Bush Sr. -- similar "I spend lots of time outdoors and squint into the sun" eye wrinkles!

Some of this may be an illusion caused by photo-retouching, or more similarity of light levels than we get in real life.


Gravatar not only George Bush, but also George W. Bush (as well as Bill Clinton)attended the funeral of JP2 on 8 April 2005 (not 2007, of course)
