Have you ever had this happen to you?
You see someone from a distance, say, 100 yards away, that looks really, really, almost illegal-to-be-that-hot. Then you get closer and closer until you finally see that your eyes have deceived you and that hottie is uglier than a horse on morphine. Has this happened to anyone else?

4. Nah. I think it was the beer.
Then again, I only had one. I can't be turning into a lightweight overnight!

3. in our town
We have many people that look good from a distance but when you get close up....face lift.

Eeeks, really creepy sometimes.
