   sometimes I have that problem; you know some names but don't recognize   
   their faces.  Or recognize the face and can't remember who it is and   
   are shy to just go up and ask lest they quiz you or something!  It   
   happens.  It's hard to recognize even Alist celebs sometimes with no   
   make up etc.
