I just thought that you were making a joke--"That guy is Mr. Bentley"--meaning that guy looks like Mr. Bentley. But as soon as I thought that I looked over your shoulder and he was walking up behind you. I believed you.

That is really funny! Now, it's strange that you mention those old-fashioned bicycles. Earlier the very day that we saw him, Terri and I were talking about that turn-of-the-twentieth-century style that was popular in the 70's. You know, old-fashioned bicycles with one big wheel, curliqued letters, handlebar mustaches, etc. And for some reason, when we saw him, we both thought "well, speaking of that style...". What is it about him that reminded us of that style? The moustache he had on the Jeffersons? Was he in some movie where he rode one of those bikes? Or was it just that jerky silent movie style in those Sesame Street segments? Any insight? Ha! That is really funny!

That is a huge sighting. Last year during the DNC, boston.com was running readers' "celebrity sightings," and I wanted to see if they would publish my faux sighting. I sent them daily notes that I had seen Paul Benedict on one of those old-fashioned bicycles with the one big wheel near Powderhouse Circle. Despite my efforts, they did not publish mine.
