Nancy, exactly correct; we wait & hope! I do think Joe's a sweetie, & isn't TIRED of us loyal & loving fans, I think he's just never been much of a "techie". He's not ever been on Facebook that I know of, & in fact, he & his wife, Kirsten restricted their kids from FB, too. Safety first! I'm on FB more often than Twitter, but this message board is the ONLY place I check daily. Hopefully, this place will remain for us to visit about Joe! Just curious: have you ever met Joe Lando? I never have, but those who have seem to have really enjoyed it.

Hi Holly,

I do belong to twitter but not facebook. No, I have never met Joe. Once when Joe was on vacation and stopping off in Illinois to spend time with his family, I thought I saw him where I work. This guy could of been his double baseball cap and all. He looked at me as he walked by and smiled. I was like, Oh my God! So, that is the closest I ever came to seeing Joe in person. His double!

Take care,
Nancy in Indiana

Nancy, was your job in Indiana at that time, or Illinois? If I'd been in your shoes, I would have politely asked the guy if he was Joe Lando. All he could have said was, "No." I met 2 of my good friends that same way. I also met some neat folks just asking. I thought one guy looked like Brett Hull (NHL), turned out he WAS. Still talk to Brett once in a while. Ya' never know!

Hi Holly,

I was working in Indiana and still am with the same store. Turned out he was with the construction crew that was remodeling the store. So unless Joe moonlights as a construction worker between movies, I sincerely doubt it was him. Unbelieveable how much he resembled Joe. I have heard that we all have a double. Wouldn't that be interesting if we met up with our own double some day.

Take care,
Nancy in Indiana

Nancy, I've had 2 people that I used to baby sit for ask me why I didn't say hello to them when they saw me somewhere. I asked each one what day/time they saw me; was NOT me they saw. Apparently, there once was a gal in Houston, TX., in my area, that looked like me. One sighting was at a Burger King just 2 blocks from my old apt., the other time was at our Galleria. Wish I'd seen her, too.

What a cutie that construction worker must have been! I wonder if he ever got asked, "Excuse me, but are you Joe Lando, the Actor?" LOL! Hope you have a blessed week, & happy Halloween!

Hi Holly, I was away for the weekend in Illinois visiting my friends. I had the double experience happen myself. Two different people thought I had quit my job and was now working at Taco Bell. They said the girl looked just like me and was working at the counter. I didn't go there to check it out. Now I am sorry I didn't. Have a Happy Halloween.

Take care,
Nancy in Indiana
