okay ... twin stories! <g>
Of course, by the time I came along, the twins were adults, but the stories!
My father's mother had two sets of twin boys, two years apart ... my father was the oldest son, so he was the one who got to 'keep an eye on the boys".
Well, apparently, family interaction was minimal, since both sets of twins learned to communicate privately with each other. They had their own secret language, and everyone in the family "interpreted"!
The youngest set of twins was the most adept at their chosen language.
They started the first day of school, and the teacher called grandmother wright from okalahoma and told her, "Mrs. Wright! I am NOT a babysitter, nor do I intend to spend any time baby talking to two perfectly healthy children. Either they come to school speaking English, or you can just keep them home!"
And, by golly!
They started talking! One of them never shut up, and the other twin talked only when absolutely necessary ... but they TALKED English! LOL

Twin story.... I used to tease my twin GS's calling them each other's names.... Well, when they were 4, they started the "fooling other people game" LMBO I thought it was hilarious...the daycare and some other's... not so much :roll: Now, they roll their eyes and give people "that look" when they are mistaken...
I am making them tshirts that say "I am NOT _______" LMBO
However, one of them sports quite a scar on his little forehead, so if people pay attention it is easy to tell one from the other :wink:

Yes, I'm excited and so is she.
She is my bestest friend in the whole wide world.
I told Bill that if anything were to happen to him, I'd marry her. lol
As to us leaving here..orders? Not yet. But, word now is...ALL Engineering Dept people will be gone by April 1. I can only hope that's true!
