i don't know why i've never posted about this, it's kind of funny. for about 4 years now, we've been getting junk mail at my house for someone named roger h____ (h_____ being my last name). my name is bob/robert, so i could see how maybe someone misheard my name and made a mistake, but it's so wierd, because we've been getting mail for him fairly consistently. it's mostly recruitment pamphlets for the armed forces (they've clearly got very high standards), but lately, he's been getting letters from colleges that are apparently very interested in him based on his credentials.
now, there's no way this mail is meant for me, because i'm about to graduate college. so basically, somewhere, somehow, i have an invisible brother, about 4 years younger than me. he's got like, an actual identity, it's not just a misspelling of my name, because not only do they have the name wrong, but they've got the age wrong, too. i'm very curious as to how roger h_____ was summoned into existence. i'm just waiting for an angry letter from selective service, asking him why he hasn't registered for the draft yet.
