They All Look Alike - UPDATE

From Big Dave Wave: Is my friend [down here] one of the people who suggested a one-man show? If not, it's a strange coincidence because just yesterday she sent a picture and this:
"I swear I thought this was Ty's one-man show"

Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T
Still from Big Dave Wave: I just asked [her] if she wrote that before or after reading what you wrote about one-man shows (and an explanation of why she thought this fellow was you doing a one man show).

OK, just looking at this picture again. I gotta get an explanation for this comparison, but until then, you can just call her a racist.

From Dave's friend via Big Dave Wave: I saw this guy a couple of weeks ago and he looked so much like Ty (or at least the photos I have seen) I snapped a picture to send to you. The one-man show ramblings reminded me of the photo -- intention met opportunity so to speak.

The guy was participating in a “Miami Has Talent” event that was going on at a restaurant that I happened to be having dinner at. He sang and did a little comedy routine (about his woman troubles). He came in fourth out of an original group of 20 (boooo). I wish I had written down his name because I am sure he has a Facebook page, website or something to promote his nascent talent.

OF COURSE, HE IS NOT AS TALENTED, FUNNY OR GOOD LOOKING AS TY.

But man, his glasses, scarf and baseball hat helped create a remarkable likeness. I hope Ty is not offended by the comparison.
