Guys I knew

Holy cow!

I know these guys!

Way back in the dark ages, I was going to Carleton, and primarily hanging out in the Strat club. One of the guys there was Brent, with whom I shared strong affinities for Rush & Torg (his dream Superbowl? Torg High Lords vs Miami Dolphins, with Rush as the halftime show. Crazy, I know. Rush would never play the Superbowl).

Anyway, the first time I met George I actually spent several minutes convinced it was Brent playing around with me. High-larious. Then, Brent came in and made me look foolish. But I had the last laugh!

Anyway, as things progressed, they got DNA tests, and voices were raised and rumblings of lawsuits were heard. They even did an episode of Front Page Challenge! And now they're in Snopes. Man.

And now they're in Snopes.

And you were left behind, relegated to posting about them being in Snopes. See, fame and fortune corrupts everyone!

*shakes fist*

Bastards.

"Ah, that's just it! That's it exactly. You see we were twins, Bill and I, and we got mixed in the bath-tub when we were only two weeks old, and one of us was drowned. But we didn't know which. Some think it was Bill, some think it was me." (http://etext.virginia.edu/railton/wilson/enconter.html)

A LOT like a monkey. Like TWO monkeys, in fact.

But not a box of?

Or a barrel?

Dolphins by 10!

I'd like to see the Lords beat that spread.

You have to feel sorry for the non twin brother, he must have felt a little wierd. :(

Marcus? Oh, yeah, that must have been a downer. On the other side, he did get raised as his brother for most of his life.

I wonder if anyone has ever tried any nature/nurture studies on them. It's a great chance to do something like that.
