The Strange Coincidences Archive

while on a recent school camp to the snow, i noticed a really hot bartender, but was to shy to ask his name.
later on that night i was trying to guess what his name was, i settled on josh.
two days later i overheard a classmate enquire about his name.
sure enough it was josh!!!

anoter coincidence happened when i was driving to adelaide on christmas day, the radio station i was listening to was debating what the greatest 80’s songs were, i, myself was only born in 1989 so could not possibly know, but i took as stab in the dark an said outload, to noone in particular: little red corvette by prince, and at that exact moment and i mean EXACT MOMENT!!! the announcer put on little red corvette by prince.

these two coincidences are only two of the many that i experience on a daily basis, i think i may have ESP or something cause thats the only way i can explain it. LOL :)

i was browsing on this web site about coincidences concerning numbers and the time etc., and it made me remember about a night when i was sick and kept waking up. Nothing coincidental here, yet!

the first time i woke up it was 1:04am, the second time was 2:05am, the third time was 3:06am, then 4:07am, 5:08am, 6:09am and then i was awoken by my alarm going off at 7:10am.

weird isn’t it???

this is the last coincidence i promise. lol.

when i was about 12 i had a pregnant rabbit. one night i had a dream that she had had her babies but her and all the babies (6) had died except one.

that morning i cautiously approached the rabbit hutch and looked inside.
i was astonished to discover that she had indeed died and 6 of the 7 babies were dead as well.

One time I had been visiting some of my family in Kentucky. We were staying two nights. On the second night I had had a dream that I been in a warehouse (nothing to do with my point) and a lady appeared in front of and suddenly turned into a skeleton. I had woken up screaming. This is the only time I had ever done this in my life. well I didn’t think much of it. I went home and discoverd that a former teacher and close friend had died last night. I later looked up the meaning of a skeleton. It means death.

Having just started at a new work place it took me a while to get to know everyone. One of the other new guys was a bloke named Kirk. After a week I made a crack about why he was working there. I said “How come you don’t have your own enterprise.” Ha ha. A week later we were making jokes about Star Trek and Star Trek fans. I said there was a Scottish guy working there. He could be Scotty. Reading the paper the next day I got a shock. There was an obiturary for James Doohan. The actor who played Scotty. He had died the day before. The day we had been talking about him.

In England the date is written out in the order Day Month Year opposed to the American month day year. One night I was standing on a friends porch and noticed the car parked in front of it had the license plate that read 575 DMY. It was the next days date in Englands date order and the DMY was significant because it stood for that order of ‘D’ay ‘M“onth ‘Y’ear. The next day came and I got fired from my job on the date id seen. Also a couple days later I had 2 different singers in my head, yellow man and red man. That night I played a fighting video game at a friends house. I hardly ever play and on the screen it showed a red fighter vs yellow fighter. It may not seem that strange but as soon as it came up on the screen it struck me what id been thinking of earlier. Ive also found lately many song lyrics and dialogue from the tv seem to be saying things that are to do with the thoughts in my mind at that time.

Years ago I was wandering around a flea market in
san jose, ca. with my then daughter in law. I
said to her, “gee I would give anything if I could see
Kenny’s face just one more time.” (I hadn’t seen
him in 5 years and we lived 50 miles apart. Seconds later
I walked up to a garbage can to deposit a coke can and he
walked up to the other side to deposit his coke can.
I couldn’t believe it.

Last week while visiting my sister in another town I casually
said, “I wonder if my friend Bill still lives here.” I hadn’t
seen him in 18 years. The next day she and I drove to another town
40 miles away to shop our little hearts out. I walked out of
a store and there sat Bill on a bench in the mall.

When I used to work for the City of San Jose, a fellow worker
used to flirt with me all the time . . .whistle at me etc.
One day I stopped and said hello . . . he said he was leaving on
vacation the next day to go to Klamath Falls, Oregon. I told him,
“Oh, i have a friend that just moved to Klamath Falls, Oregon.
He said, “whats his name?” I told him Butch Beck
and he said, “thats who I’m going to see, he’s my brother in law.

Many years ago i had some neighbors who divorced.
He (Wayne) was a fire captain for the city fire department.
I also worked for the City and used to see him in the cafeteria
at work from time to time. Then a year or two went by and I didn’t see him at all. I kept asking people whatever happened to Wayne?
He had gotten fired for drinking on the job. Then one day I went to the Garlic Festival in Gilroy which I had never done before and never since. As I was walking along, I saw a man sitting under a tree
in the shade and cautiously walked closer and closer thinking it was my friend Wayne. It Was Wayne. He lived in 2000 miles away and we just happened to be at the exact same place at the exact time. He died a few months later. But at least I got to see him once again and have a hug and I know “whatever happened to Wayne.”
