What a Coincidence

Last Tuesday, I was driving home from work on I-90. I heard some motorcycles behind me and looked in the rear view mirror. One of the guys popped a wheelie for a quarter of a mile to half a mile. It was the longest I had ever seen one done. My thoughts were that it was awesome, but also really stupid because of the danger involved.

Thursday, I went to Zocalo for lunch with some co-workers. While we were eating, I began to tell them about the guy I saw pop a wheelie on the interstate. I noticed that our waiter was taking interest in what I was saying. It turns out that our waiter was the guy I saw on Tuesday! I was vague in my description of what happened and he was specific enough to convince me it was really him.

What are the chances?

Comment from: Alison
Being a mom, I would have asked him, nicely, if he wasn't afraid of the danger involved in doing a stunt like that on a highway- or is that part of the thrill?
After I listened to his reply, I probably would have suggested he not to tell his mama about it. And to be sure he checks in with her every once in a while- just to say "I love you!" (which is good advice for all children, everywhere)
