More than a few people have told me that they see a resemblance between Matt Smith (the newly appointed 11th Doctor) and myself when I was younger.\u00a0 Below you’ll find a picture of Matt and a picture of a very young Irredeemable Shag.\u00a0 Other than the fact that we both have really bad hair in these photos and not-small noses, I don’t really see it.\u00a0 You be the judge.<\/p>\n

Additionally, I thought a few of you might get a kick out of my 11th grade picture.\u00a0 In case you’re wondering, I don’t look like that anymore.\u00a0 That picture of me was taken 20 years ago.\u00a0 Wow… that means Matt was only 6 years old when I took that photo.\u00a0 Dang… I feel old now.<\/p>\n

I was such a fashion victim of the 80’s. This particular picture is like some over exaggerated 1980’s flashback. Check out the Glam Metal hair, long bangs, the puka shell necklace, the hang-loose dangling earring, the Alex P. Keaton knit tie, the vest, and the Hard Rock Cafe pin.\u00a0 If this picture didn’t make me laugh so much, I’d probably be horribly embarrassed.<\/p>\n
