BCMS has multiple sets of
twins,who share experiences
. --from front page
ofl the famous "switch."
"One year we got tired of classes
and switched for a day," says Jo
giggling. "No one knew!"
The two both have their own
horses they ride and care for at their
house--a pastime they both love.
Though they contrast one anoth-
er, the two both say they share a
unique bond.
Sue says one day Jo fell out of a
tree and cut her foot on a piece of
glass. The girls' mother took tier to
the hospital while Sue and their two
brothers waited at home. While Jo
was still gone, Sue says she began
to experience an uncomfortable tin-
gling in her foot. Soon after the
tingling began, her mother called to
update the family and told them the
doctor had given Jo stitches.
"1 couldn't believe it, I was
shocked," Sue says.
Kadey and Codey Armitage
Kadey and Codey, 12, are in the
7th-grade, and are a lot alike. Both
are friendly; Kadey smiles a lot.
When asked to describe his sis-
ter, the first word Codey uses is
"cool."
"We're kinda alike, we stick to-
gether-she's my best friend," says
Codey. "I'm 45 seconds older, but
she acts older."
"I take care of him, but he takes
care of me," says Kadey with a
smile,
"I walked before he did," says
Kadey. "Morn said I'd hit him and
then take off running and he'd crawl
after me."
Codey says they argue over who
gets in the shower first in the morn-
ing and also over who gets dish
duty.
They both are good students.
Kadey beat out Codey for home-
room president by three votes this
year. The both play sports, like the
same movies and share the same
friends.
They also like to hang out with
other twins because they feel they
automatically have things in com-
mon with them, especially boy/girl
sets.
"I like being a twin," says Kadey,
"it's so cool."
Thera and Gary Nelson
Don't let Thera and Gary's initial
quietness fool you, the 12-year-old
7th-graders are both quite silly un-
derneath.
Gary is a minute older, but Thera
has him beat in height.
"She's always been taller than
me," says Gary. "We're both good at
sports--but I'm better."
"Sometimes we think the same
things," says Thera looking at Gary.
"We even say the same things."
Them and Gary erupt into laugh-
ter as they share a story about a
photo their grandmother took of
them when they were little of the
two of them sitting on the toilet
together.
"We had to go to the bathroom at
the same time!" says Thera shrug-
ging.
Both are together a lot and say
they like being twins, but they do
have their fair share of arguments--
over the computer and television.
Gary also gets frustrated at Thera
borrowing his sweaters and stealing
his socks.
Gary shakes his head and says,
"You probably have mine on to-

"Yep !" says Thera smiliv.g smug-
ly.
Danielle and Michelle Butcher
S'eventh-graders Danielle and
Michelle, 12, by far, are the most
commical set of twins at BCMS.
They are constantly laughing and
joking around.
"I'm the nice and cool one--she's
mean," says Danielle pointing to
her sister.
Michelle laughs like it's the fun-
niest thing she's ever heard, "No,
she's just nicer than I am."
Danielle says her sister is "really,
really talkative," funny, bossy and
smart. Michelle says Danielle is
"'very, very funny" and smart.
They both like sports and are tom-
boyish. Though they fight at times,
they say they tell each other every-
thing.
"We're best friends," says Mich-
elle.
"No we're not," says Danielle
laughing.
Danielle admits that she can't sleep
without Michelle. She says when
they moved from the room they
shared, into separate ones, they both
had trouble and always wound up
back in the same bed. According to
them, Michelle is the scaredy cat
and Danielle is the brave one.
"I have a story!" says Michelle
out of the blue and excitedly.
Danielle insists Michelle tell her
first and after whispering in her sis-
ter's ear across the table, Danielle
says, "No! Let me tell it."
The story, conceruing a sisterly
spat, ending in a ripped off bathing
suit, can hardly be heard over each
of their fight to tell it their way and
the loud laughter.
Brittany and Bethany Stull
Brittany and Bethany, 13, 7th-
grade, look identical. But they insist
their personalities are different.
Brittany, who is one minute old-
er, is sweet, quiet and the more intro-
verted one, according to Bethany.
"Bethany is a big nut," says Brit-
tany. "She's more outgoing, more
outward and talkative."
They're a lot alike though, in their
tastes in movies, food and clothes.
They also clog together and play
soccer. They wear matching "B"
necklaces.
"We're together a lot--all the
time," says Bethany.
Both say they don't fight very
much with each other, but when they
argue with their older sister, it's nice
because they're two against one.
Lynsie and Lacey Rhoton
Eighth-graders Lynsie and Lacey
are 15 and are as different as can be
in both looks and persOnality.
Lacey, who is older by five min-
utes, has long hair, likes pastel col-
ors and soft and classical music.
Lynsie has short hair, likes black
and listens to heavy metal music.
"Lacey is well-calculated, not
spontaneous, sweet and smart," says
Lynsie.
Lacey says about Lynsie, "she's
very bossy, a leader, outgoing, very
social and a comedian!"
They both agree that being twins
is neat, but Lacey says they hate
"dumb twin questions from dumb

Cemetery maintenance---Boy Scouts
are known for their good deeds and last Saturday
was no exception. Members of Boy Scout Troop
222 filled in holes and cleaned and repaired mark-
ers in the Owingsville Cemetery. These Scouts
helped Dustin Brewer who was completed is Eagle
people," such as: 'how can you tell
yourself apart?' or 'how does it feel
to be a twin?'
"Being a twin is all we know, we
don't know how it is being anything
else," says Lacey.
Both are smart, articulate and
opinionated, and enjoy sports.
They too, even each other out,
what one lacks, the other has. Lacey
is the peacemaker when Lynsie's
temper flares and Lynsie is more
aggressive when Lacey is passive.
"Lynsie is my best friend, but we
need our time apart," says Lacey.
They say they have a unique in-
tuition about the other they can't
explain. They can tell when the oth-
er is hurt even if they're apart, and
they ge hungry at the same time and
say things in unison a lot. Lynsie
says someone once told them they
were psychic.
They recognize their similarities
and enjoy them, but they also cele-
brate their contrasts.
"Being unique is something we
pride ourselves in," says Lacey.
Editor's note: The eighth set of
BCMS twins, seventh graders
Jonathan and Joseph King, were
not in school on Thursday, Febru-
ary 14, at the time of the interview.
