LOL Max. Your line about the percentage of folks now having tried to touch their ear with their elbow tickled me.
As for being on TV, I've had my ugly mug on the tube more than I'd care to. One time it had a viewer trying to finger me for a crime. Seems one of the local TV reporters was doing a story of a homicide we all were covering and she ended her report with the usual, if you saw anything or know anything suspicious, please call the police or call us at this station. Well, a woman called and told the reporter that she had seen someone in the story that was suspicious -- a guy with a beard, mustache and ponytail, wearing a raincoat was in some of the TV shots. In fact, the woman said, I've seen him at a lot of the crime scenes on TV. The reporter took down the description and then laughed and told the woman, he's one of us--but you were right to be suspicious!
At least it was better than showing up in a picture accompanying a story about a David Duke rally published in the local alternative paper. No identifying caption on the specific pic, just a headline about "David Duke's people." Damned media, LOL.

It's not low self esteem -- there are rocks down there.
