That's also Harold Lloyd hanging off the clock in the post above t-p. And he's really hanging off the clock, it isn't a back projection.

Sorry, I did not know who that man was.
I am bad with cinema and movies. I don't remember names.
Thank you for telling me.

Can we count him too? He is Jerry Seinfeld. Or it is not Gerald.

I am sorry if I am wrong. We did have Tom and Jerry.

I would post a photo of my late Uncle Harold if I could. There's a very nice one of him dancing with his eight-year-old granddaughter, "hand in hand on the edge of the sand" like the Owl and the Pussycat, on a deserted beach in Scotland.

Dear Equal Opportunities Harold
I was under the impression that my husband was called Gerald, and for the last twenty years of our marriage, this is what he told me until one horrible day when his birth certificate slipped out of the pile of bedding that he was carrying from one soiled corner of the cage to a clean one. There, as clear as day, was the name 'Harold'. How can I live with him now that such long-term perfidy has been exposed? Such a feeling of betrayal. Such loss. How do I now know who he is, or who we are? I thought I married a Gerald but I've been sleeping with a Harold.
Yours, bereft and distraught
Harold,
Dagenham.

Was't Gerald wrong'd Harold? Never Gerald.
If Gerald from himself be ta'en away,
And when he's not himself does wrong Harold,
Then Gerald does it not. Gerald denies it.

Dear Harold

Just think of how your poor spouse must feel, having concealed his true name for so long.
Remember that he is the same person, and that we all should remember that a gerbil called Gerald is no better or worse than a gerbil called Harold.
My advice is that you both sit down and talk this through. Be honest about your feelings, and possibly try some role play. Perhaps you can both be Gerald for one night.
Best of luck
