Potential halloween costumes
A few weeks ago, when the boys were wheeling around the family room on their little scooters, I remarked to The Lady, "Hey! Ponch and Jon" (from the t.v. show CHiPs).Which made me realize another really nifty thing about being a twin: the potential for great Halloween costumes.
Now, Aussies don't traditionally celebrate Halloween (instead, that's when income tax returns are due -- our ''April 15th''). But over the last decade or so, what with the ''Americanization'' of the culture, teenagers and various adults have adopted Halloween as an excuse to have a ''theme party''. So, our sons will have their opportunities.
In addition to Ponch and Jon...
...they could also go as Bill and Ted...
(Excellent!!!)...or those Dukes of Hazzard guys (Bo and Luke, IIRC)...
...the Hardy Boys...
...Starsky and Hutch...
...Simon and Garfunkel...
...or even -- Batman and Robin! (B2 will always be shorter and more slender than B1 -- thus relegating him to ''Robin'' status.)
So many choices!
(Makes kinda wish that **I** was a twin!)

I vote for Batman and Robin! Lone Ranger and Tonto would also be good.
Those were great! Especially since they were already on their "machines" for the CHPs photo. Thanks!
K,
Good idea! (The aim was to get blonde + brunette duos -- but the white hat would cover blondie's hair. And, maybe the Lone Ranger's hair color isn't cannonical.)
G,
Thx! When I decided to do the blog post, I ''posed'' them. :)
