“ But they’re cousins,Identical cousins all the way.One pair of matching bookends,Different as night and day.”
“Still, they’re cousins,Identical cousins and you’ll find,They laugh alike, they walk alike,At times they even talk alike -You can lose your mind,When cousins are two of a kind.”
Even if two identical brothers married two identical sisters (which would make all the children genetically as close as siblings), the children still couldn’t turn out exactly identical. Except in fiction—like the Patty Duke show and, apparently, here!
I went to work in Morgan City Louisiana in June 1978, like a month after a suspected serial killer using the alias Frank Henry Green became a suspect. They told me the murders took place on Thursdays when he was off and right around the time concrete was poured for different projects. People would look around and wonder which wall or floor held which girl. Good thing I didn’t look like him or I would have had to carry around a note saying THIS GREEN IS NOT CURRENTLY A MURDER SUSPECT.

In their defense, it is a strong family resemblance, so it would be easy to mistake one for the other.

And another cousin, Jethro Bodine.

Doppelganger:1) A ghostly double of a living person, especially one that haunts such a person.2) An evil twin.3) A remarkably similar double.

I once was told that I look like the guy who played Pacey on Dawson’s Creek, but I never had anyone ask me for an autograph.

Run him in anyway for poor use of the language. He should say “That’s not I, Officer Cobb.”

Identical twin, yes. Identical cousin, no. Suppose it was this guy that Delray saw?

If Joe’s lucky, this is happened so often that the lookalike is used to it and won’t get angry
