in the interest of winning, we cut scott's hair to match matthew's, and matthew grew his out (he usually shaves his head) and grew out his beard (he usually wears a goatee). scott wears his hair in what my grandfather called a "man's cut" short and tapered in back, with a part and combed to the side in front. we did do one other thing to "cheat". we dyed the gray in scott's beard. he's getting a little on the white side lol lol

what's the prize? to get MEN to do something like that - the prize must be a doozie.

they actually both wanted to do it. everyone tells them how much they look alike. so it wasn't hard to get them to do it. and since i said they could ride their bikes for it, that clinched the deal. matthew will do darn near anything to get to ride his bike.

I like the one you decided to submit, Jiffy. It is good. If it was cheating to get haircuts and dye jobs, more than half the people I know are cheaters. Great work behind the camera, too.

We were given two hands to hold, two eyes to see, two ears to listen & two legs to walk. But why were we given only one heart?
The other heart was given to another for us to find.

Jiffy good photo's and yes they should win. They look enough alike to be brothers.
I know Scott is very proud to have a son that looks so much like him I know I would have been.

WOW! shock

I thought Scott was looking a little different.....and I thought it was the hair....I'm glad you said that though so I knew for sure.

They are all good! clap

Would've been hard to pick.

My sister is in the finals of a karaoke contest and the prize is $1000. I hope she wins because she needs the money. She is a great singer.

Sometimes little contests can really pay off.
