A case of mistaken identity

Popular blogger Blaize K. checks in with a Spalding Gray-related story. Seems her mother and father were sitting in a restaurant years ago and the father was mistaken by a waitress for Gray, who happened to be performing nearby. The interesting part is that after her husband was mistaken for the monologuist-actor-writer, her mother developed a near-obsession:

Over the years, I saw all of his monologues, all of his movies, read all of his books, and played my "Monster in the Box" tape every morning on the way to work, until it broke.

Think about that for a minute. Every morning the woman kissed her husband, got in the car and drove to work, listening to a tape of the man her husband resembles. You've got to wonder what kind of talker her own husband was.
