Face Recognition...
I let this face recognition software check out my picture, and give me comparisons to 'famous' people.
Robin Williams 73% (Used-to-be funny comedian)
Ang Lee 72% (Rikes)
Yitzhak Rabin 71% (Israeli politician)
Sergei Bubka 70% (Ukrainian pole vaulter)
Roman Polanski 68% (Director and Rapist)
Francis Crick 68% (of DNA fame)
Greg Bear 68% (SciFi author)
Mikis Theodorakis 68% (Greek composer)
Sir Edmund Hillary 67% (Mountain climber)
Edsger Dijkstra 66% (Computer guru)
J Robin Warren 66% (Nobel Pathologist)
Hugh Hefner 66% (Double Yikes)
Marco van Basten 61% (World Cup Soccer coach)
Jackie Chan 61% (Triple Rikes)
Magic Johnson 61% (Quadruple Yikes)
Bobby Charlton 60% (World Cup Soccer player)
Some pertinent notes:
I am not Chinese
I am not Black
Younger I looked like Richard Dryfus in Jaws and now I look like Dick Chaney in terminator.
My wife scans as Sally Field (68%), Kathleen Turner (54%), with Julianna Marguiles, Miranda Richardson, Susan Sarandon (Gak - divorce), and Blake Lively as lesser matches.
She actually always reminded me of Sally Field in Gidget.
Obviously this program is crappola for men and fairly accurate for women. My wife agreed with the female renditions, but knows I don't look anything like Robin Williams...the terminator picture got an agreeful laugh out of her.
My daughter came out as 75% Scarlett Johansson, 71% Eliza Dushku (from Buffy), Elle Macpherson, Jennifer Aniston, and a bunch of other starlets.
