Coincidence

Someone will be along shortly to offer you a choice of two coloured pills.

The gods smile down upon you for now,but be aware they are a very fickle bunch.

I like to believe in mysteries and odd stuff,it's the closest I get to religion.

Anyone had any weird ones? We've had a few recently that have had us both wondering whether we're imagining things and sometimes it's just simple things.

I found a couple of books today at a secondhand store, I bought them, got home, made a brew and as I opened the first one I was commenting to my wife about how I needed a new bookmark because I've got so many books on the go that I'm losing my places - a few seconds after I finished saying that a bookmark fell out of the book, not just any bookmark, a fancy hand drawn one, very intricate drawings and painting, with our surname in fancy scroll letters on it.

This sort of stuff is happening a couple of times a day this last week

To be fair, your surname could be someone's nickname.

[Skub]

The surname you saw (if you're going on my FB account) isn't my real surname, it is actually a weird nickname I picked up once on a job.

Selling skunk?

Buy a lottery ticket this weekend!

I think coincidence is just luck in a canny situation.

Having your surname on it though is a bit spooky unless your surname is Smith or Clarke or something else popular!

If you have had the same facebook account forever your name tends to be in the URL no mater how many time you change your name in settings. Not sure when they changed but now it tends to just say profile.php?id=00000000000 <whatever you profile number is.

Fair enough, that is the one I thought was your real surname

Potter and Cheesy, sitting in a tree F.R.I.E.N.D.I.N.G.

[Mr. Dazzle]

Someone's gonna tell me Cheesy's last name isn't actually Boolean, aren't they?

Because I'm originally from Doncaster... I know that Mr Boole (although not from Doncaster) came up with Boolean while teaching in Doncaster.

Also Butterscotch was invented in Doncaster and it's the home of the fastest steam trains and Kevin Keegan, Diana Rigg, etc..

I know that from watching Local Heroes with Adam Hart-Davis and getting the tie in book for Christmas one year. I'd guess 1997.

Have you been thinking about plates, shrimps or plates of shrimp?

It isn't, my real surname is a brand of car.

It's also the home of one of my many cousins.

That's near enough.

[Felix]

Julian Lada.

Or FSO. That is a brand that needed a name change.
