I know this is supposed to be based on names, so: Sandy Dennis and Sandy Duncan.

Truthfully, you wouldn't get those two mixed up. I do get Sandy Dennis and Elizabeth Hartman mixed up, though, as to the kind of actresses they are.

This thread should have more of people you get mixed up for reasons other than their name, imo.

On that note, if you were to mix up Sandy Duncan with anyone, it would probably be Karen Valentine.

Well it's the BFI Southbank nowadays, so unless someone invents block-fungible ingots you shouldn't need to worry.

In SoCal (and other US areas) BFI means Browning Ferris Industries, a trash collecting service.

You know the two Osmans are brothers, yeah?

No! That explains it then.

an attempt at watching Pam & Tommy made me realize I'd never distinguished between Tommy Lee and Nikki Sixx, at least as far a gossip fodder and rockstar escapades. They were just a singular tall, tattooed, black haired dude married to Pamela Anderson and/or other models.
