"...Didn't you used to be Van Seymore?..."



Ok - so that made me think of a funny one:

After Dad got sick the medicines (steroids) caused him to retain water. During his growing up years and in young adulthood he had always been quite thin, but the medicines caused him to puff up a bit, especially making his face a little rounder than it had been previously.

Dad was always running into someone he knew, whether it was in an expressway rest area in Phoenix or a shopping trip in a local mall. One time we were out and someone thought they recognized him:

"...Didn't you used to be Van Seymore?" the man asked.

Dad paused for a minute and said "....I thought I still was...."
