Details of the other me

Mr. Schell Doppleganger (i have a feeling i butchered that word) has posted a clarifying bit of info concerning, uh, us. It is as follows:

Date: 11/29/06
I've been found out by the other Joe Schell. He posted about it a few days ago and i didn't notice until today. He noticed incoming traffic to his blog and through some internet-sleuth work he found this page. Hmmm. So hello to the potentially larger-than-normal audience. I'm a few years older than my namesake, and Rachel is not my significant other. (It's not that i'm embarassed to be around you Rachel (though i am :) but joe mistakingly mentioned you were my gf.) She's just a friend of mine. Do Joe and I have anything in common besides our names? I'm not so sure. I like videogames, but not shooters or action games so much. I don't own or think it would be enjoyable to own a gun. I don't own or take pride in my car. I don't have Joe's rebellious manner, instead I work for the government. I don't have Joe's easy way with girls, though I could be worse. What else. I live near DC and I am good at two things: drinking warm, cheap beer and not being bothered by it, and playing tekken. I emailed Joe, but other than having the same name (hopefully his middle name isn't Richard) I don't think we'll have much to talk about. I do enjoy his blog though. It's almost like watching a soap opera where the main character has your name. You'd watch that too, don't even try to deny it.

Apparently i have a way with girls. Funny, i don't seem to ever keep one, nor do they beat down my door to have at me. Which is plenty fine by me, seeing in as how i'm far to cranky in the morning to deal with women beating down the door that isn't actually on my room. I have caution tape stapled in strips which hang from the doorjamb.

He drinks beer, so do i. I stick to guinness though. He plays tekken, i play... well whatever really, but i suck at tekken.

We did e-mail each other, but as the Joe Schell indiginous to the northeastern united states has been known to display in the past, we are loners and do not travel in packs. We are merely mildly amused by each other's existance.

And typos. Which he has significantly less of than i.

I suppose my life sort of is a soap opera, but i cause most of it (deliberately and inadvertantly) so i can't complain.

And my middle name is Daniel.


Same phylum, different species i guess.

Or something like that.
