Weird coincidences...
Last Saturday, we (my wife, her to brothers and I) went to visit their cousins north of Scranton, PA. Haven't seen them in over 3 years!
![]() So Jacklyn is into art and digital photography. She shows us some of her pics at an online art forum: deviantart. Never heard of this website before. Now, the following Tuesday, in the "More random pics" OT thread, a link to a 911 / BMW 3 Series photochop comes up. Thread: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/off-topic-discussions/125505-more-random-pics-post1140213.html#post1140213 Link: http://www.deviantart.com/view/3047318/ Weird. But there's more... During dinner, Ron, the father, and Mike, the son are sharing some possible upgrades to their Ford F350 Diesel. One of the upgrades discussed are Jake brakes. I had never heard of these things, although I now know what the "brrr..brr..brrr..." sound is when the semi trucks are slowing down. On Monday, over on Rennlist, I start a thread on driving misconceptions. We start discussing braking and specifically, engine braking. Wouldn't you know it, "Jake brake" systems are also discussed. Thread: http://forums.rennlist.com/rennforums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=110948 Now can it be that these are somehow linked? Is there Someone up there messing around with my mind? Am I paranoid? I really think I should buy a Semi truck with Jake Brakes and find a 911/3-Series chop and run it over. Preferrably in Scranton. Yeah, this is what too much snow will do to you! Thanks for letting me share! ![]() -Z-man.

I think you are *this close* to breaking the Da Vinci code!!! The power the Grail will bring you will make the F350 seem like a puke-orange 924!

These are very interesting coincidences, Z-man. Let me take this opportunity to suggest a theory about the true nature of the internet. What happened here is that a connection occured between facts of your real life and thoughts that you have shared on internet. This suggest that internet is more than just a network of interconnected computers: the informations it carries gives it a higher dimension, just like a brain is more than interconnected neurones, but is where the soul manifests itself.
And just like the soul is our connection to higher dimensions, internet may play a similar role: internet is the recipient of all thoughts, and it may have reached a critical mass such that these thoughts are now able to permeate through our 3-D world. This is the 3-D to 4-D interconnection , there is no more difference, and...Arrrhhggh....the black helicopter...they are coming...! ![]() Aurel |
