PLEASE HELP me figure out who this guy is!?!?!?
Ok....so I was at a gas station getting a soda yesterday and this guy comes in wanting directions to the airport...i instantly recognized him as an actor, but cannot for the life of me place his face with the show/movie or whatever that he's been on. it's driving me friggin nuts. I gave him the directions, but couldn't bring myself to say, "hey, you're an actor right?"
Here's what i can offer in the way of help....he's bald, but obviously shaves his head, pretty soft spoken (in that brooding kind of way), and i can picture him in a darker cop/spy/mystery kind of show as a lead character...something along the lines of Oz, 24, Alias, CSI, Crossing Jordan, etc....I thought for sure it was Oz, but i've looked over the cast and didn't spot him.
he's kind of a cross between
miguel ferrar:
and Willie Garson:
He looks a lot more like Willie Garson, especially in the eyes, but he's taller and a bit 'darker'. I realize this is an extremely long stretch, but as i said, it's driving me nuts and I don't konw where else to turn....does this ring ANY bells with anyone?

... bet you're regretting that decision right about now, eh?
Sorry, I've been thinking about this and I'm drawing a blank. J.K. Simmons was probably a better guess than I could have come up with.

One thing is that Bruce Willis and Demi Moore bought a house on Long Lake a couple of miles from here because one of their daughters is attending Interlochen Arts Academy (where my fiance works and we live). They've both been spotted around now and again, so maybe he's a friend of Bruce....who knows? The Gas station I was at would be the one place you'd stop on your way to town coming from that area...so maybe that's it....

Now if brizz had actually seen Vincent Price in full Egghead costume, that would have been the world event of the millenium.
