The world, she is small
These just in, from the Office of Odd Geographic Coincidences:
- Today some of my friends (and their bouncing baby girl) are moving into their new condo in Hoboken…where they will live kitty-corner from the one friend I have who lives in Hoboken as well.
- I just learned that my sweet comic Valentine, who lives in Chicago, was once engaged to a young woman while he lived in Washington, DC…and she lived down the block from me in Philadelphia.
“The world, she is small,” wrote one of my friends when I told him of the latter happenstance.
That, and Cupid needs a better bloomin’ GPS already. Aí, querido…
However, as Steven Wright said, “It’s a small world . . . but I wouldn’t want to have to paint it.”
