Care to share some odd, funny, strange coincidences you've experienced?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46829points) November 23rd, 2011

This question was prompted by something that just happened…I called my husband in to show him the heavy duty PURPLE work gloves I just purchased from Amazon. I had just clicked into Amazon, it came up, and my husband’s phone rang….and it was one of his customers…at Amazon! He hasn’t had reason to talk with them since he sold them some compressors three years ago! (They’re needing a service tech for some small issue with one of the compressors.)
That was pretty cool.

Yesterday I walked out of the building (the jail) where I work. Just as I pushed on the door to open it, sirens went off. Stopped me for a second until I realized they weren’t really related. : )

Several years ago my son had caught a bunch of fireflies and had them in a jar. Later in the evening I convinced him to let them go, because they’ll just die over night. We stepped out on the porch, he opened the jar and made a throwing motion toward the street, as if that would toss the fire flies out…and a second later our neighbor’s bug zapper went crazy! Well…the neighbor is clear across the street, and fire flies don’t toss like rocks, so it isn’t even remotely possible that it was the fireflies, but the timing was so exquisite that neither my son nor I have ever forgotten it!
