I've just learned that the luscious Keira Knightley, star of Pirates of the Caribbean and my occasional dream girl, is actually younger than my younger brother. I find this vaguely troubling.

After seeing Pirates, Haiwen and I commented that Keira looked an awful lot like a certain famous Harvard alumna. Turns out that this is no accident: this may be common knowledge to Keira Knightley fans, but I was surprised to realize that she played Natalie Portman's "double" in The Phantom Menace. Thankfully, she's since moved on to better roles.
