I didn’t have the best day today. Got up early and had an appointment with the pain doctor who I’m starting to think is talking in circles and not thinking things out. I’ll get more into that perhaps in another post.
Anyway, I wasn’t feeling up to par so around 5 pm I decided to lie down on the couch for half an hour or so and have a nap. I was hoping I’d feel better when I got up.
Well, I didn’t fall asleep until after 6, and then I was awoken at 7 pm by my elderly neighbor banging on my door and coming right into the house! That’ll be yet another post. Don’t worry Chris was there, I wasn’t sleeping all by myself with the door unlocked.
I awoke to see that Chris was watching a television show called the Sea Hunters. To my amazement this one man, James Delgado, the Canadian Executive Director of the Vancouver Maritime Museum and one of the world’s leading maritime archaeologists looked very much like one of my favorite CSI characters.

Gil Grissom |
Watching him talk about the dive they were doing and the shipwreck that they’d discovered from the late 1800’s in the Baltic Sea I noticed that not only did he look like Gil Grissom from CSI (Las Vegas version, played by William Petersen), but his facial expressions and mannerisms were very much like Grissoms’.
I couldn’t find a photo of Gil Grissom that look as much like James Delgado as I thought he did on the episode of Sea Hunters, but even in this comparison they could at least be brothers couldn’t they? Just watch the first minute or so of the first video on this page, at about 50 seconds you’ll catch a good look of James and he looks an awful lot like Gil.
What do you think? Close enough to be brothers? Fraternal twins? At the very least relatives?
Leigh says
Definitely close enough to be brothers! (I love CSI, too!)
RennyBA says
Never seen James, but after reading your note and checking those links, I do agree with you. Could have been brothers.
Sorry to hear your wasn’t up to par. Hope you feel better soon. Take care – get well!
Tracey says
Most definitely they look enough alike to be brothers! They do say we all have a twin out there.
(btw, enjoyed peeking into your photos!)

CSI is great. I love the way Grissom talks and comes up with great one liners. 🙂
Tricia says
Renny they look so much alike … If you saw the Sea Hunters program that I awoke to and saw an episode of CSI they really do look like more than brothers – ie twins. I was shocked. I thought the guy from CSI was also a deep sea diving enthusiast at first.
Tricia says
Tracey … well then I must have a lot of twins (quadruplets?) out there because almost all my life I’ve had people come up to me and talk to me like they know me – they think I’m their friends girlfriend, or someones sister and so on. It’s really weird.
Art Kauffman says
blood brothers. 🙂
Court says
Oh my gosh! That guy looks exactly like Grissom!
Elizabeth says
Yeah, I see what you mean!
Matthew says
lol at blood brothers, they do look alike though
Lists says
They do look remarkably similar.
