Double trouble?

posted by Babs on Sunday, 31 May 2009

Mo and I went to a birthday celebration the other night and as we entered the room I was stopped in my tracks when I saw one of the guests.  Had he flown all the way from the US, just to be here? If he had, then why didn’t he speak to me?  Not one word!  I had to sneakily take these photos from across the room.  He looks a lot older than the photo on his blog and Facebook though.  Has he been cheating, and posting old photos, pretending they are current?  Maybe his recent worrying has taken it’s toll.

lookalike

Is this Jeff of ‘The Receders’ fame and  View from the Clouds?  Well, obviously it isn’t or he would have said hello!

At least you know what you’ll look like in twenty five years Jeff!!

    Ok, I surrender. You got me. I’ve been trying to disguise my silver foxiness the whole time but I guess I’ve been outed. The reason I didn’t say hello is because I didn’t recognize you. Maybe if you had been winking and your hair was a little wilder.

    btw… how do you like my chin dimple implant?

    Babs:

    I don’t know either of these gentlemen. At first glance, I thought it was a before and after picture for a new brand of vitamins.

    Happy trails.

    Jaffer: I couldn’t believe the likeness when I saw him. You never know Jaffer, I may find your double one day ;)

    Lauren: Humour is my game, and cheeky my middle name!

    Jeff: Ha ha! Don’t forget my hair would also need to be orange! OK, I got the dimple wrong, but an implant could look quite debonair ;)

    Sandee: I keep seeing doubles lately. I think they must be cloning experiments!

    Black Cat: Oh please don’t feel guilty, my profile pic is a drawing that not only makes me look younger but has no resemblance to me at all!

    Swubird: Well that shows there is a resemblance give or take twenty some years ;)

    Ahahahahahaha! And he’s even still wearing the same shirt!

    Then it must have been Jeff’s son we met in St. Cloud twice….

    Woah that is the same man.. it must be! :)

  10. beetleNo Gravatar | 1 June 2009 at 13:16

    Maureen: Hahaha! I noticed the shirt too. Yes, he probably sent his son along, just to keep the pretense up ;)

    Vampy Vic: That’s just what I thought, when I entered the room and saw him!

  11. IvanhoeNo Gravatar | 1 June 2009 at 19:18

    That is close! Wow! Can you look for my twin, too?

    that is too funny!

    [I recently took photos of a complete stranger who looked like a celebrity, from a across the room - and posted it on my blog too!]

    So .. which one’s Jeff, then?

    LOLOLOL!!

  15. beetleNo Gravatar | 1 June 2009 at 21:33

    Ivanhoe: I have seen quite a few ‘doubles’ of people I know in recent years. It was fortunate I was able to photograph this one ;)

    Meleah: Your dad is a look alike himself I know!

    LadyBanana: It was such a strong likeness I had to photograph him :)

    Jay: I think that is debatable ;)

    Hey, Grandpa Jeff isn’t too bad-looking. How sneaky of him to show up like that. I hope you got his autograph.

    We all have a double, I’ve heard said. You were fortunate to find these two-interesting!

  19. beetleNo Gravatar | 2 June 2009 at 4:00

    Chrissie: They do say that. Wouldn’t it be weird to meet your own double?

    My dad really is a look a like, but I was talking about seeing THE REAL BENJAMIN BUTTON at my country club!!

    Love the comments (and your replies) since my last comment! BTW, how can I find out when you’ve left a reply to a comment? Don’t tell me I have to keep coming back every few hours… I luvzya, but you know, tempus fugit (or sumfink) and all that!

    I didn’t know Mo has been going through all that stuff. I’m so glad she hasn’t got cancer! Asbestosis is very bad but if it’s not going to get any worse for Mo, that’s good!

    Thanks for your super-kind comment! :) xxx

    meleah: I’m sorry but I have no idea who Benjamin Button is. Am I showing my ignorance, or is he only famous in the US?

    Black Cat: YES! You do have to come back to see my answer. I do try to answer fairly quickly, although I don’t always manage to ;)

  23. LiudmilaNo Gravatar | 9 June 2009 at 12:17

    As for me the nose is different. So, this is NOT he!!!
