I'm not sure it's a cigarrete, though I've no idea of what else it could be. But it does look like one.

He's not holding a cigarette, he's holding a pipe tool.

I always mix up Neil Diamond with Neil Young.
That is a mystery to me. How could you? I mix up Adam Sandler and Ben Stiller, don't ask me why. And Bruce Boxleitner and Bill Pullman. I know their faces, but I can't remember their names.

Re " Sweet Home Alabama", Neil Young will remember, but I can't. Reminds me of a Mash episode were two soldiers with last names A,B,were introduced to a 3rd party. The latter asked: Which is A, which is B? Hawkeye replied: " They're interchangeable". Most of these celebrities are so to me.

Pacino and ... (dammit, what's his name?) De Niro.

I have a mental block with de Niro's name. I can never, ever, ever remember it. By brain is in a radiation-hardened loop: 1. Think of the guy from Cape Fear. 2. Don't remember his name. 3. Offer Pacino's name instead. 4. Rinse. Repeat.

I haven't. I remember Robert " No Tengo" De Niro.

Easy. One is the tough guy in "Heat", and the other guy he's talking to is the other one.
