Well, I guess Hillary Clinton let her beard grow out for no reason.

Wait. What?

What’s the message? We don’t want to celebrate someone who committed suicide? OK!

Reminds me of the time Charlie Chaplin entered a Charlie Chaplin lookalike contest in a Swiss bar.

He came in third.

The Hillary look-alike contest is still on, right? After all, she’ll need body doubles should she decide to run again.

We can't afford to lose you. Plus, they would mark you down as a Corona death.

After looking at the photo, I wonder... how much does a Hemming weigh?

COVID-19 victims and Hemingway look-a likes. Hemingway is dead, so shouldn’t the look-alikes ....

They look like Kenny Rogers to me. I guess they can all move on to that contest next.

Ernest Hemingway was a graduate of my high school and grew up not too far from the home of my youth....but I don't look anything like him...can't write like him either.
