A couple of weeks ago, he spotted a familiar face:\r\n

Today I’m wearing my glasses that make me look a little like @<\/s>gregproops<\/b><\/a>. I driving on Fairfax & I SEE HIM !<\/p>\r\nHe followed up with a tweet directly to the comedian:\r\n

Hey @GregProops<\/b><\/a> there was guy on Fairfax today outside the post office who looked really like you. You should litigate. #doppelg\u00c3\u00a4nger<\/b><\/a><\/p>\r\n\"Greg<\/a><\/p>\r\nCraig later added:\r\n

I think the guy I saw outside the post office today actually was @GregProops<\/b><\/a>. #thestarstheyrejustlikeus<\/b><\/a> #theygotothepostoffice<\/b><\/a><\/p>\r\nAnd Proops eventually did see Craig’s tweets and responded:\r\n

@CraigyFerg<\/b><\/a> I think the guy I saw outside the post office today actually was @GregProops<\/b><\/a>. It was me and yes I bought stamps.<\/p>\r\nThanks to the RSA’s @bgrhubarb<\/strong> for spotting the reply.\r\n\r\n\"Hot<\/a>We mentioned last week that actress Betty White<\/strong> let it slip in a newspaper interview that Craig will be appearing on her TV Land sitcom Hot in Cleveland<\/em>. Craig confirmed the guest gig with a tweet and a photo:\r\n

Doing a little extra work here this week. I’m still in love with Betty White. pic.twitter.com\/SnRPiSz0ge<\/a><\/p>\r\n\"Craig<\/a>Last weekend, Craig retweeted a funny photo from a fan and joked about it:\r\n

RT @Richpo64<\/b><\/a> @CraigyFerg<\/b><\/a> pic.twitter.com\/Chz74OqHXq<\/a> How odd. This is what I was thinking.<\/p>\r\nHe also acknowledged the comedy award he’ll receive in June in Canada:\r\n

RT @BanffMedia<\/b><\/a> Craig Ferguson to Receive the Sir Peter Ustinov Comedy Award at BANFF http:\/\/<\/span>bit.ly\/158X3lf<\/span>\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/a>. Thanks Canadians. #theyresocute<\/b><\/a><\/p>\r\n\"Peter<\/a>Craig also drew attention to the recent Los Angeles Times article about his boss:\r\n

A lovely article about my dear friend and mentor http:\/\/<\/span>touch.latimes.com\/#section\/-1\/ar<\/span>ticle\/p2p-75350681\/<\/span>\u00c2\u00a0<\/span>\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/span><\/a><\/p>\r\nMore Than Tweets<\/strong><\/span>\r\n\"Childrens<\/a>When Craig isn’t tweeting, he’s quietly helping out with some of his favorite charitable causes. Last week, he visited the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles<\/a>. A Twitter user named @CullenDoug<\/strong> thanked him for being there:\r\n

@CraigyFerg<\/b><\/a> Thanks for visiting CHLA today. You put smiles on my family’s faces #latelateshow<\/b><\/a><\/p>\r\nThanks to the RSA’s @bgrhubarb<\/strong> for spotting the tweet.\r\n\r\nApril Birthdays<\/strong><\/span>\r\n\r\n
