DEAR ABBY: I just had to respond to "Mr. Forgettable." I, too, have one of those forgettable faces.
I can be standing three feet from people I have known for years, and they don't recognize me. So I have made it work for me. I am a private investigator in the Deep South. And when people find out that I am a P.I., they are so interested in what I do, they don't forget me anymore. -- HOPES TO STAY FORGETTABLE, GULFPORT, MISS.
DEAR HOPES: You are clever to have turned what some might consider a handicap into an asset. I'll wager you are very adept at your profession.
