Default BABBLERS SWITCHED AT BIRTH

From the thread on constructing a guide to Babbling I for the first time linked to the yahoo photos. (So many threads, so many links, so little time). Very cool. I'll have to get a photo out there one of these days.

But it reminded me of the Switched at Birth books from a while back. Anybody else game. My initial observation, based on posting and not on photos:

Humphrey and Plankton. 8)

(For those w/o kids, the megalomaniacal character from SpongeBob. I love the scene where he is rehashing Plan Z to rule the world, but gets delayed slightly when SpongeBob steps on him).

I think you forget the origonal world dominator of our generation!
Brain

His famous exploits have inspired me more than any other. So much so that when the world will be mine, PETA headquarters will be demolished and turned into a amusment park entirely devoted to world domination.

But do not fear, I will nt hire as a sidekick someone as incompetant as Pinkey. I havew found someone far more intelegent, and devious. But for the moment he will remain anonymous.

Good one! Except most of my clothing wasn't torn due to ripping effects.

Great topic.

OK, how about Archer17 and George Harrison?

Wasn't it Separated at Birth, or was there more than one such series?

Oh yes, that is the correct title. One of my favorites:

Winston Churchill and almost any newborn caucasion.
