I have dark curly/frizzy hair, olive skin, weigh about 200 lbs. and, at the time, used a cane. The other woman was fairly slim, had very long straight, rather stunning, red -gold hair, very light skin and used a guide dog. Very very hard for people to tell us apart. Believe me, it's not your beard.Hypatiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08078870642576137395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5512974252421215566.post-26366792836345672222011-06-06T10:52:38.714-05:002011-06-06T10:52:38.714-05:00I love this post!I love this post!mat_defilerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05558559345118106920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5512974252421215566.post-60919113556673365972011-05-27T18:17:56.294-05:002011-05-27T18:17:56.294-05:00Upside?

You wrote: "When they put us in a police lineup with four other bearded white guys in their 50s in wheelchairs, most people won’t be able to tell any of us apart."<br /><br />A clever enough lawyer can use that to your advantage! No clear identification of the suspect! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5512974252421215566.post-53060397368565017082011-05-27T15:46:43.277-05:002011-05-27T15:46:43.277-05:00I'm still looking for a Cripple around my age ...I'm still looking for a Cripple around my age so I can rob a bank and pin it on that kid. it's not personal it's just in lieu of employment i need another plan.xJikaixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10892616669737924302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5512974252421215566.post-569317847866713102011-05-27T08:31:06.433-05:002011-05-27T08:31:06.433-05:00Funny how all those bearded white guys in wheelcha...Funny how all those bearded white guys in wheelchairs can sing so well.

I really did think he looked like me, especially because at the time I was using an A-Bec power chair like the one he was sitting in.Mike in Albanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10453725168167672011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5512974252421215566.post-61393974171353993332011-05-25T19:53:05.681-05:002011-05-25T19:53:05.681-05:00hey, i think i saw you today- are you white, aroun...hey, i think i saw you today- are you white, around 50 and in a wheelchair?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11853178747718782705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5512974252421215566.post-39249730289614103732011-05-25T19:20:18.791-05:002011-05-25T19:20:18.791-05:00It *could* be too that Stephen Hawking is British,...It *could* be too that Stephen Hawking is British, not American. <;-) But I know exactly what you mean; in college I constantly got called Nellie, who was the only other female on campus in a manual wheelchair, despite the fact she was nearly twice my age, & that she used a hospital chair & I had a sports chair.MissJupiterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18389965591959534393noreply@blogger.com
