Problems in Iowa

As many of you know, Jason lived in Iowa and went to the University of Iowa (Go Hawkeyes!). While he was there, he lived through the "1000 year" flood. This week, Iowa has yet again been experiencing the "1000 year" flood. The pictures show water covering cars, roads, bridges. It looks horrible. Every day Jason checks the online newspapers from Iowa to see more pictures and shows them to me. On Thursday before going to class, he showed me one from 1993 of "The Strip" in Coralville where he used to live. The Strip is the road he walked down during his 1000 year flood. While he's talking about the places, I'm looking at the people in the photograph. There are two guys just looking at one of the shops. I look closer. It seems to me that the taller one resembles my husband! I ask him to take a look. He says it could be him and his friend, who had a camera that day (the other guy in the photo is holding a camera)...we think it's Jason. What about you? (Click here and then look for the DonutLand sign. Go straight down and you'll see two guys. Taller one is Jason?)

i think you should just tell people it's him.

I'm with Niki -- definitely looks like it could be, but there's just enough different that I'm not sure.
