People who are basically the same people
We have a new category in "The Uncommonwealth" today:
We're not talking "Separated at Birth" look-a-likes, folks. This is about people who look, sound and act alike, share similar world views, and basically are interchangeable.
Our first roster:
Air-headed, promiscuously inebriated hotel heiress Paris Hilton and air-headed, promiscuously inebriated B-movie actress Tara Reid
Self-consciously flamboyant, borderline basketball talent-turned-NBA-analyst Tom Tolbert and self-consciously-flamboyant, Sacramento Kings back-up Scott Pollard
Local kitschy furniture mavens Bernie & Phyl and local kitschy Columbo yogurt mavens Mr. and Mrs. Colombosian.
Nagging question: Why isn't it called Colombosian yogurt?
