Blare OnAir Lite is a 10-minute free radio program for part 15 stations, and has recently launched Series II, a whole new batch of visits with radio listeners.
In Blare OnAir Lite No. 431 something different is tried as Carl tries to juggle six different characters all talking among themselves. The story line goes something like this:
Carl happens upon his perfect double at K-Mart and recruits the guy to fill in during vacations and general hooky from work.
Flotilla, Carl's assistant is floored by the sight of two Carls.
Ned Steady, board operator, can't believe his eyes.
Carl II, the double, is put to work interviewing Dr. Sigmund Sickie, from Sickie Psychy Services, the psychological consultant for the station, but Carl II does not sound like Carl I.
All this while Governor Chris Christie is sitting in as the show's guest, who makes defensive remarks about his bridge problem.
Carl the First takes over and provides an ear for Dr. Sickie to confide his down feelings due to a gay patient who wants a divorce but isn't married.

So, this has nothing to do with it, but reminds me...
Md Dad had an identical twin brother. (he's passed on last year, but Dad's still hanging n there) They went to college together, and went into pharmacy. Dad moved from small town farm country in SW Minnesota up to the big city, his brother stayed in small town, eventually settling in the smal town of McGregor, MN, population about 300. Keith (Dad's brother) owned a small drugstore there, and my folks bought a small lake cabin near McGregor and we'd take weekend trips from the City up to the "cabin". On many occasions Keith would have something to tend to on a weekend -- be it fishing, Gideon work, church work, whatever, and if we were up at the cabin, Dad would go into the store and pretend to be Keith and run the store in his absence. Most people could never tell the difference. to family, we could tell of course, but to the casual customer or townfolk, they could pull it off. They looked identical right up until Keith passed away. Similar mannerisms, same corny jokes. It was quite a hoot.
OK, back to your regularly scheduled programing.

Tim, I love your family story and think it matches very much my little experiment.
What Keith's double could have done is prove that people can come back to life!
On the other hand, why would anyone want to prove such a thing.
Enjoyed it, anyway.
my dog Hoover jumped up to the
table and ate my MilkyWay bar whole.
(Almost.
I was really stupid to leave it on the
edge of the table.
Chocolate is really bad for dogs, but
Hoover can eat just about anything,
and it makes no difference. We have found
this out by trail and error over his goofy ten
year life.
Great voices!

What a mess
