Burns Snack


Instead of a Burns Supper, I had a Burns Snack at work, with the same guys as last year.

Ce n'est pas une pipe


My buddy J took this picture on his train this morning. Even I would think it was me if I didn't know that I don't take J's train. The brown Chucks are the kicker. (Ha, get it? The "kicker"?!)

I used to have a doppelganger in Astoria. EJ saw her when he lived there, and from a distance thought she was me. M used to work in Astoria; he saw her. And once I was at a meeting where I chatted with a guy who said, "Oh, you live in Astoria - I see you on the train sometimes." I figured he saw me occasionally when I stayed over at EJ's, but when I heard these other reports of my N-train twin, I realized he must have been seeing her. I never got to see her - I'm a bit disappointed. I wonder how alike we'd think we look.

Me and my friend S used to think we looked alike. In fact, the first time we met, both of us swore the other looked familiar. Finally, I said, "I know why you look so familiar! You look just like me!" The thing is, no one else thought so. I do know that one time, she quickly flashed a picture of me in front of someone and asked who they thought it was, and they thought it was her - so we were vindicated.
