Doppelganger. That typically refers to your look alike. Some stranger out there who bears an uncanny resemblance to you. But what about an inner doppelganger? Someone who thinks similarly, and acts similarly? since Doppelganger is the combination of the german words "double" and "goer", perhaps "double be-er" ("be-er" as in "one who is busy being") would be a good translation? and since "be-er" is really just one hyphen away from "beer", might I be so bold as to suggest doppellager? So, I would like to propose a toast to my doppellager: "What an incredibly lucky person you are to think like me!"Friday, August 8, 2008

You best be glad you have a doppellager rather than a doppelganger. Since the doppelganger can be an omen of death, a doppellager is just an omen of a hangover?
