Hi. I am an identical twin and I thought I could share with you an answer to the most annoying question twins get. That question is "what's it like being a twin?" and I always respond the with the best (and truly only) answer: "What's it like not being a twin?". Enjoy.

Something I do with my 5 year old daughter (and I know this is silly and has a high chance at not working with others, but still) so I come in and ask "where's my wiggle worm?" Then I start feeling the covers pretending that I'm looking in the dirt for the worm - this usually starts her transition on grumpiness to giggling. Soon I "find her" and lift up the covers and slide in next to her saying that I am the daddy worm. Then we both wiggle our worm bodies and I say its time to get eat our dirt breakfast. At this point grumpiness is out and she starts listing out how her cereal or yogurt is her dirt cereal or dirt yogurt etc. But it typically works on mornings where she is grumpy/donestn want to come out from her bed.

Hi Seth. Knowing that you escaped your death on 9/11 - what's it like when the anniversary comes up each year? Has it had a lasting impact on your life?
