Doppelganger
I always wondered what it would be like to have a twin. Now, I need wonder no longer.
That's me at left, top. Sweaty and bedraggled after a day of packing the van for the trip to Syracuse, setting in some new perennials, and watering the garden beds so they'll survive until Friday. This photo is the best I can do using the Photobooth software on my iMac right now.
Who is the woman on the right? I have no idea, but when I saw the photograph in a celebrity story online – it was taken at a tennis match at UCLA earlier this month – an eensy-weensy spider of eerie recognition crept up my spine. The resemblance is uncanny. She even appears to be in my general age range. And she's a sports fan!
Kevin says she looks older, tireder (debatable), and less happy than I. Bless his little heart.
O twin, who art thou?

I always thought you look a bit like actress Jean Smart.

I don't see it so much. Except with true identical tis people don't look so the same to me.

Doppelgangers are everywhere. Early Sixties I had this lit professor, very precise and dignified, who told us about meeting his double. The hostess of a HoJo on Route 128 took one look at Dr. Gurko and grabbed his arm. She hauled him over to the short-order hatch. There's Dr. G's double: a HoJo short order cook. They did not actually meet, however.
I always wanted to look like Jeremy Irons. Skinny chance....
