Well, Deepak Chopra has a book on "Harnessing the Infinite Power of
Coincidence" which you might read and get bargains galore. ; )

I said euphemism because it is "The act or an example of substituting a
mild, indirect, or vague term for one considered blunt"
I have two freaky coincidences, and maybe yours is why the first
syllable is "coin", but mine happened too often to be coincidence. For
instance everytime I had a song in my head and I turned on the radio that
was what was playing. That maybe esp. I am on and off with esp
sometimes. Have to be in the right mood.
Second, every time I went for a ride 9 x out of 10 the reflector would
be in the way when I wanted to lock up. Happened more than just out of 10X
too.
I believe in "if it can happen it will". Murphy's Law. Kind of like "There
is always one in a crowd" Ha ha Happy to say those 2 issues do not bother
me any more. Does not happen I mean. Is ESP also just illusion?
Cheers
Happy Biking
Post by KirályPost by smnWhat can you do with this euphemism.
"there are no coincidences, only the illusion of coincidence"
That sounds more like an aphorism than a euphemism.
The other day I was on the way to the LBS, thinking about how expensive
my favourite tires are ($33 for Continental Top Touring 2000 700x37) and
lamenting about how they never go on sale. That thought was still fresh
in my mind when I arrived there, and they had one left; discounted from
$33 to $25.
Was that a coincidence, or an illusion of a coincidence? If it was an
illusion, maybe the new Conti Top Touring 2000 700x37 tire sitting in
my storage room right now is an illusion too. :)
