Ran across this curious bit of trivia others might enjoy.

While serving in the U.S. Navy during World War I, Humphrey Bogart was detailed on prisoner escort. The handcuffed prisoner, in attempting to escape, smacked Bogart in the face, severely lacerating his lower lip with the cuffs. The injury did not fully heal, causing Bogart to have a speech impediment that became his classic slight snarl whenever speaking.

When buying a car here in Australia the salesman, who looked exactly like Humphrey Bogart, claimed to be his cousin, but the name was spelt slightly different.
Degrees of separation!!!!!!! 1?
