CHAINED COINCIDENCES

It's 6:32 a.m. and Patrick's crawled into bed with Junior.

There is a Phenomenon that occurs in my life with some regularity. I wish I knew the name for it. It's when, like this: You hear a new word, one that you're sure you've never heard or seen before--all of a sudden it pops uup again and again--now I'm not talking about buzz words that rapidly gain popularity in the MSM. Anyway, the other day I bought a book called "They Marched into the Sunshine" for a buck at a flea market. It's about one month--October 1967--about the peace riots at the University of Wisconsin in Madison, and a couple of companies in a battle in Viet Nam. Last night on PBS, they were airing a documentary based on the book. Now I have to read the book right away. It's not a new book. In the next few days, a will see or hear another reference to the book or the events depicted in it.

So it goes.
