(That doesn't look quite right, but you all probably get my point.)<BR/>I'd heard the word, and new what it meant. I'd read the word, and never thought much about it. But I think I was in my midtwenties before I connected them and realized that they were the same word.Jeffhttp://jeffsdeepthoughts.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7947040641304880576.post-50567047632960171592009-01-27T16:13:00.000-05:002009-01-27T16:13:00.000-05:00This is all my friend Mary's fault. If she didn't have 2 model-s-T#836 dopplegangers floating around in Boston when I lived there, I wouldn't have thought twice about the phenomena. So far there's 3 of her that exist..<BR/><BR/>PS. I don't quite like the idea of having to prove you're a human by typing a strange word to leave a post! "Buyari"... what the hell does that mean? Sounds like the name of JD's doppleganger..Jack Dogg's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00569837672316977524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7947040641304880576.post-14423173140803748832009-01-27T16:11:00.000-05:002009-01-27T16:11:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jack Dogg's Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00569837672316977524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7947040641304880576.post-25616982736835653402009-01-27T07:52:00.000-05:002009-01-27T07:52:00.000-05:00Wow, that was pretty funny. <BR/>Don't feel bad when you've never heard a word before. There's enough words in the English language to deal with without having to worry about the German ones. i first heard the word "doppleganger" in college in a German Lieder song. Imaging that, i had to sing the thing!<BR/><BR/>The other day i had a word pop into my head from an obscure nursery rhyme: moribund. i even used it correctly at jeffsdeepthoughts.
