Under the heading....Small world

So I'm doing a bit of consulting for a start-up software company and had 4 flights up and down the east coast yesterday.
10:06 PM, 4th flight of the day in Charlotte, upgraded to 1st class,
I start talking to the guy next to me and who's in the seat in front of me....Spence!!!!

No boat, back in the suds.

Yet, neither of you can fish this weekend.
Go figure.

My friend (who lives down the street) and I who work in the same industry once ended up on the same flight to Indy and stayed in the same hotel and ate at the same place for dinner then flew back on the same flight the next day all while visting different companies.

My wife and I were in a Casino in San Juan PR when I heard someone say "Mary?, is that you?" Her good friend from High school.

The amazing thing is we've known each other for a decade, both fly a lot from PVD and this is the first time we've been on the same flight I'm aware of.

I once was watching the sun rise over the grand canyon with a bunch of other folks. Little kid started crying next to me. I looked and it was a friend w/his family. I told him it ruined the moment.
