Double-take

So, the other day I come home from school and flip on the tube as I begin to unwind. There’s a show on the history channel about modern-day Indiana Jones’. OK, cool. As I’m putting things away and getting something to eat, I look up at the screen and do an immediate double-take. “No, it couldn’t be,” I think as I’m grabbing for the Tivo remote to rewind the program. The shot lasts for only one second, but sure enough, there she is: Patti, down in a pit, sketch pad in hand, on some archaeological dig in Guatemala. Or, at least, I think it’s Patti. I wouldn’t doubt that it is her — as this is exactly the kind of thing I could see her doing right now — but I’ve seen her near-double before, so I’m still doubting myself a bit. Even so… makes you wonder.
