Conley married Anne-Marie on 4 August 1996, in a ceremony at a Stoke Poges chapel, Buckinghamshire.[6] Conley had proposed eight months earlier, while wearing a suit of armour.[6] The wedding day itself also had comic elements, causing celebrity guest Linda Lusardi to remark that it was "the funniest wedding I've been to" — Conley made several memorable quips during the event, and the couple left the church in the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car.[6] The couple have two daughters.

Recently: Deerhoof and Deerhunter
― Paul in Santa Cruz, Monday, January 14, 2008

You can add Deer Tick to the list now. (Deerhunter is the one I know and like, but I still have to pause for a couple of seconds to remind myself which one they are; have never heard the other two.)

I was at a math workshop today, and one of the presenters looked uncannily like Jonah Hill--a few pounds lighter, hair a little shorter, otherwise a physical lookalike, and his voice and mannerisms were dead-on. Everyone at my table was in complete agreement. When we called him over to look at something related to the workshop, I had to ask if anyone had ever told him he looked like a famous actor. I expected him to groan and say, "Yeah, I know, Jonah Hill." He said yes, but not Hill: "I get Richard Gere sometimes." It wasn't meant as a joke--he was absolutely serious.

Jonah Hill and Richard Gere: I always get those two mixed up.

I don't get the people confused, but whenever I hear "Mark Ronson" it takes a few seconds to switch from "Mick Ronson?" to "Oh, that guy I keep hearing the name of."

One of them obscures my cellphone number, the other reveals it. I keep fucking it up in my professional life, but luckily it hasn't yet led to any awkwardness.

Hardly "always," but today I caught a bit of the 80s Canadian flick Hockey Night on TV and briefly mistook Maury Chaykin for M. Emmet Walsh.
